No. MS would corrupt Nintendo to hell.

That sounds like the worst merger in the history of the world.

 

 ... Actually, SquareSOFT and Enix was probably the worst merger.

Separate, they made games that were holy hell and out of this world. The first 10 Final Fantasies, Chrono Trigger, The first 7 Dragon Quests, etc.

And then came their merging because of a crappy movie. Together, they virtually made shit. So much shit, Square's leader left them for his own company and their main music composer left for his own band. They made so much shit, they have to remake their past good stuff on portable gaming systems instead of dealing with newer games that will be... shit.

It all started with the obvious success and glory of Final Fantasy X. It had you waiting for more from SquareSOFT. Then you could tell the merging was bad from the anti-climactic burning in flames of Final Fantasy X-2 right after.

ANYWAY, about M$ and Ninty merging... how about we have Ninty kill off M$ in the gaming industry so M$ can work on what they actually started: Computers. They should let their Gaming Division die so they can go back on work on better stuff than shitty ol' malfunctioning Vista and whatnot.



Sony will prevail. My 60 gig says so.

PlayStation 3 Games:

- Rock Band
- Rock Band 2
- Soulcalibur IV
- LittleBigPlanet
- Guitar Hero: World Tour

I tell u i had no idea MS already discussed buying Nintendo, those goddamn dirty thieving mutha fukrs. Im glad the japanese have honor in their country, with the history of that major shareholder enveloped in Nintendo theres no way, i hope, that he would hav sold.

I swear if i had alot of money, which i dont, i would buy as many shares possible to control that company.

excuse the swearing, out of any company i have ever known of this one, Nintendo, is the only one i would truly mourn for if it was bought out.



“When we make some new announcement and if there is no positive initial reaction from the market, I try to think of it as a good sign because that can be interpreted as people reacting to something groundbreaking. ...if the employees were always minding themselves to do whatever the market is requiring at any moment, and if they were always focusing on something we can sell right now for the short term, it would be very limiting. We are trying to think outside the box.” - Satoru Iwata - This is why corporate multinationals will never truly understand, or risk doing, what Nintendo does.

Nintendo is an original company who seeks too innovate. MS is an unoriginal company who seeks too copy!

Nintendo doesn’t need MS too push the graphics of there console and they can do good online but they are looking at a different way of doing it then what MS has.

Sorry but why go down when you can go up?

So no thanks!



    R.I.P Mr Iwata :'(

Dunno if mergers the right word Im looking for.........

Anyways I think that would be perfect. Xbox as a console I dont like but I do like M$. Nintendo games and consoles have always been the best imo (minus GCN) so M$ bringing all there cool tech to a Nintendo console I think would be awesome.

They could push the graphics and online bring more 3rd party support to the nintendo console and Nintendo would make the console FUN like they always have.

What do you think?

 

Personally like the idea



PS3, WII and 360 all great systems depends on what type of console player you are.

Currently playing Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2, Fallout 3, Halo ODST and Dragon Age Origins is next game

i dont think they need to (nin) i mean they could have put that tec into the machine but rather choose not to

Maybe not a merger but it would be great if there was only one console on the marketit would have games that support traditional controls and motion controls.
