Nintendo and Capcom...easily a great match up. Nintendo could really help bring Megaman back to life. Hell, they brought Pit from out of literally nowhere and made him a star again. Then, they'd get Street Fighter, Okami, etc...which would make Nintendo a pretty powerful name again.

Nintendo could hire people to take on the games.  And they would obviously incorporate that talent that is still there.  And I bet Platinum could do great work with DMC and Nintendo has a good relationship with Platinum

I'd buy it first day, even if Nintendo didn't have Capcom. I would prefer for Nintendo to buy Capcom, but right now Nintendo has Monster Hunter and that's the main franchise I only care about.

In nintendo hands, capcom would abandon their abusive DLC pratices?
If so, capcom would be as good as old times.

i would.

Nintendo is still a powerful name.

The name includes all accomplishments and achievements, not just current ones. Nintendo is literally the king of gaming and everyone knows it.

Capcom has like 2 good franchises, Dragons Dogma and SF

Now if Nintendo brought back Ghost n Goblins in 3D as a Dark Souls killer? YESSSSSS

obviously it would help and not hurt to have some more mature IP's butttttttttttt the question is would it be worth the investment of probably a billion or a few billion in $$$$ (not up to date on what Capcom's valued at)

for me personally I do enjoy the Resident Evil series (despite it being terribly lame and FPS like rather than survival horror). they could fix that easily though, Nintendo isn't stupid. also like others mention, DMC could easily be done, Nintendo can do any genre if they just hire the right people (and they tend to do that). Mega Man could be revived

it would be exciting but, again, a bit investment and unlikely to happen. as it stands Nintendo is very conservative financially and does not like to take big risks and investments. there was a million opportunities in the past to bid or buy smaller game and software companies (cough Rare) but Nintendo seems to be comfortable with their own IPs and (I would guess) possibly afraid of what would happen if they acquired too many and were spread too thin. I mean, after all, what's the point of buying out a company with a bunch of IPs if you don't have the time or manpower to develop the franchises and really take advantage of them. that's the one thing with NIntendo, they certainl aren't lacking a multitude of IP's and brands to work with (hence the underuse of things like Star Fox, F-Zero, Earthbound, etc.)

all the same I do think it might be wise for them to buy out a moderately sized successful mature game software developer at some point. it could pay dividends to do so. and by mature, I mean a software company that specifically develops more adult oriented games, whether RPG or action/horror

I knew somebody would say this. I know Nintendo is powerful as a company. But in the current gen, they're console is getting its ass handed to it by PS4. There I said it. No, it doesn't mean I like one more than the other, I just know that Nintendo isn't as powerful in gaming as they used to be and again, that's debatable.

Uhm yeah, the PS4 is dominating the other consoles. So what? That doesn't mean anything. And yes, it certaintly is debatable, cause in my opinion, they're still powerful in gaming. These days (and this gen) you rarely see any games that compare to the quality Nintendo delivers. Sales wise, they obviously deserve better, but sales aren't everything.

No. The only franchise I play from capcom is Resident Evil and I won't buy a console just to play RE.
