Nintendo should just buy TakeTwo outright rather than leeching them money. TT's investors would be happy to get what they could at this point...


That is doubtfull,

TTWO shares have been on a tear for the last 7 months.

The stock is up over 70% since last summer...



PS3-Xbox360 gap : 1.5 millions and going up in PS3 favor !

PS3-Wii gap : 20 millions and going down !

If I were Nintendo I would buy Resident Evil 2 Remake and Resident Evil 6.

Odd. Wonder what they've been up to to pull in numbers like that?

They made a profit in a non GTA year.

They built a second successfull sandbox franchise ( Red Dead Redemption).

NBA2K11 shattered every sales record for a basketball game.....

 

Edit : And there's a lot of hype surrounding LA noire coming this May.

Right, i forgot about 2K11. I remembered Red Dead but also remembered a fair bit of financial turmoil surrounding its development

RDR has sold 8 millions units accross PS3 360 and is still selling 35k units/ week one year after it's release on the PS3 alone....( and is still priced at 40$ in the US).

That is pretty good for what can be considered a new IP ( it's kinda of a successor to Red Dead Revolver but doesnt have much in common with it).

if i were nintendo, i would for once be innovative and create a new IP rather than blaming 3rd parties while producing more of the same games nintendo made 20 years ago.

what they need to do is invest in studios who will be committed to creating hardcore exclusives for nintendo rather than hoping the 3rd parties ditch the xbox and ps3 for some reason unknown to logic.

the initial costs will be great but it pays in the long run....and you wont need to pay $100m for exclusivity from a 3rd party either.


WTF???

You can't be serious...

just look at their new ip's this gen.

theres a reason they still rely on mario and zelda.



Y'know what they say about lottery winners? How a lot of them end up back at work within a few years because they recklessly spent their windfall.

I have a feeling that the OP would be one of those lottery winners.

 I would make a few purchases (marvelous, vainillaware, level5), and probably will look to expand the internal studios... 

I dont like GTA, COD, or almost any FPS, so I dunno with those...
