No one really when you've already listed the reasons against Nintendo acquiring the most likely ...

They don't need anyone, but if they had to, they could probably buy some loyal indie devs. Yacht Club Games and Playtonic would probably be good choices.



bet: lost

"but they're already actively developing for non-Nintendo platforms."

Didn't stop Microsoft from acquiring Rare.

So yeah, Capcom.

Also some western studios like Square did with Eidos.

Buy Konami and fire everyone at the board and important positions.Would be a perfect scenario



My (locked) thread about how difficulty should be a decision for the developers, not the gamers.

None.

Make new IPs and new studios.

This for every other publisher/system owner, I;m tired of the whole "who should they buy and milk to death/deny other systems of said IP's". I'd rather Nintendo make new IP's of their own than buying anyone else, same goes for Sony/MS.



Mankind, in its arrogance and self-delusion, must believe they are the mirrors to God in both their image and their power. If something shatters that mirror, then it must be totally destroyed.

I don't know if Nintendo is in the position to buy any developers right now, but if they did, based on the developers' performances, who do you think Nintendo should buy?

I was thinking Capcom and/or Sega, but they're already actively developing for non-Nintendo platforms.

Konami would be out of the question because, you know, a lot of recent developments.

In terms of individual IPs, I was wondering about Nintendo buying Mega Man. They seem to treat Mega Man better than Capcom does anymore.

Well, what are everyone else's thoughts?


Question i see is, why would anyone want to be aquired by Nintendo ? They are not known to be the easiest to work with.

Level 5 or Sega (Atlus)

They should buy Capcom, but I think Sega/Atlus is more realistic.



Bet with Teeqoz for 2 weeks of avatar and sig control that Super Mario Odyssey would ship more than 7m on its first 2 months. The game shipped 9.07m, so I won
