Insanely huge consolidation. I wonder if Sony will be forced to respond (maybe with something like Take-Two).

Can Sony afford Take-Two? Activision-Blizzard was in a bad spot which I think gave Microsoft the opening it needed. Is T2 going through the same?

Sony has somewhere between $20 b and $45 b in cash assets. But that's not the only means there is.

For instance, Take-Two just acquired a company that is two-thirds of its own market share. AMD bought Xilinx literally without spending a penny. A large enough company can do a lot of things using their own stock and loans.

Honestly, though, I don't think Take-Two is worth it after buying Zynga in terms of yearly revenues. EA or Nintendo are too risky/expensive, respectively, unless there's a straight-up merger with SIE. I think it'll be both Capcom and SE at some point in the next couple of years or so.
