Probably SE or Namco, but I don't think all of their IPs should go to a single company. The Hudson IPs and Mystical Ninja should go to Nintendo, ZoE and Suidoken to Namco, Metal Gear and Silent Hill to Sony, Castlevania to Square Enix and Contra to SNK.

I don't believe SNK will even bother with Contra, based on latest release on that franchise, it is straight up worse Metal Slug, and I have doubt on how much brnad power Contra holds.

I think Castlevania to SNK and Suidoken and ZoE to Enix might do better.

That said, you left out Bemani and other minor franchises out. I'd like Nintendo to try perfecting Elebits.

Square Enix has already enough JRPG series that they need to work on ( Mana, Chrono, Valkryie Profile), so I don't think adding Suidoken would help much. I guess SNK would be good for a 2D Castlevania game, but I had 3D Castlevania in mind when I chose SE. We still haven't had a really great 3D Castlevania game! There are, of course, franchises like Rocket Knight and Gradius but I have no idea where they could go.
