Has Square shown any sign of going under? I could've sworn some time ago Capcom was ready to auction themselves off to the highest bidder. |
No, there was some buyout defense plan that Capcom did not renew. They were not going to sell themselves. All those reports meant was that maybe potentially sometime in the future, maybe someone could accumulate enough stock to take over the company.
I don't know about Square, but we all saw their comments about TR still not making a profit after like 5 million sales. So it's obvious game development is pretty risky. Good thing for both of these companies you mentioned, that a console manufacturer is willing to foot the bill for development in exchange for exclusive aspects to their game.
