The shareholders would never allow any of the big three to muscle in and assert authority over Capcom. Just because that particular countermeasure is no longer in place doesn't mean it's a free for all and doesn't mean there won't be any resistance to a buyout. It's naive to claim "X company should just buy X company" when we don't know the details and the complexities involved in the process.

It would make sence to buy them. Some very popular IPs would help shift a few consoles for ninty.

I love Capcom and Nintendo, but Capcom really isn't worth the investment from Nintendo.

Nintendo already basically has the Monster Hunter IP exclusive.

Resident Evil is way past its prime and couldn't save the GameCube 10 years ago, it won't do much now.

Street Fighter has an OK following but its not what it used to be at its peak either.

Megaman is as niche as Star Fox these days. So they have three IP way past their prime and one that Nintendo already has.

Nintendo would be better off just investing in new studios to be honest and letting them make new games.

So Sega should get Capcom then?

Well, obvious reason is right now capcom has the value of a multiplatform developer.  You reduce that output to a single console ecosystem and you cut revenues significantly.  That immediately reduces the value of the company resulting in an immediate loss.  Also with nintendo struggling with hardware currently, any impact from capcom ip's would be negligible.  Also, nintendo audiences arent the best for some capcom ip's like resident evil.  We saw on the gamecube that resident evil struggles on nintendo platforms.  Then there is the redudancy in staff when you take out the multiplatform development.  Tons of people would lose their jobs, and as revenue decreased, even more would lose their jobs.  You also run into the problem that as a publisher, you can only develop so many games before you start competing against yourself and take sales away from your own games.  Nintendo is pretty much already at capacity as a publisher, they start pushing more games out their games will start having a lower ceiling of sales.  That would probably mean Nintendo would have to cut back on their own output of games.   

So yeah, bad idea.  Same goes for every console maker really.  

"In the event that Microsoft, Sony, or some other company even allows Nintendo to buy such an amazing and important company. "

ms and sony are in no position to "stop" nintendo.

answering the thread's title: It would solve all of CAPCOM's problems. for nintendo, it would be a great adition.

That's totaly not how it works.

It would create more problems than it'd solve, I think I'm repeating myself quite a bit today, but Capcom is a horrible investment for any of the big 3.

Explain how it works then.

All this capcom nonsense is well out of hand and much ado about nothing.
