nintendo are rich bustardsthat they can buy 5 independent game company's
I wish they could get Rare just for the IPs. Imagine Banjo Threeie made by Mario Galaxy talent. Sega for the same reason. But both seem like bad business moves.
"Now, a fun game should always be easy to understand - you should be able to take one look at it and know what you have to do straight away. It should be so well constructed that you can tell at a glance what your goal is and, even if you don’t succeed, you’ll blame yourself rather than the game. Moreover, the people standing around watching the game have also got to be able to enjoy it." - Shiggy

You're right, this is maybe the most important thing to do... but why could they not do everything? Create new teams is a must when you only have 4000 employees, so true, but if they also buy some talented 2nd parties and make some deals with the best 3rd parties, then the line-up will GREATLY improve, in both quantity and quality, and in close future as well as in distant future (which then means, next gen)... I'd like to see a less "passive" Nintendo anyway... they're givin' the impression to be glad with their own sales, and to no commit to anything happening in the industry around them: i'd wish to see a Nintendo tryin' to associate more and more people to their success, not only the very small indie teams on Wiiware and DSiware, but also some bigger teams (not the other giants, the ones "in between") on the retail market... They have made nearly 20 billions of profits in the last 5 years, i just hope they'll make a great use of these to prepare the future, not only their own future, but also the future of the industry, especially in Japan where things are gettin' critical due to a population gettin' older and a shrinking market... It's nice to know that Yamauchi-san (owner of 51% of Nintendo's shares) is now one of the richest man in Japan, but if that's the only good thing about Nintendo making billions, then i see no reason to care, AT ALL... i hope you see my point... :) |
Well, it's not like they haven't bought any in the past. They already bought Monolith (working on Monado) this generation, and they have good working relationships with lots of 2nd/3rd party devs. I'm not saying don't work with 3rd parties, but rather don't buy them, and build your own teams. Also they should start more efforts like Metroid Other M, which is a Nintendo + Team Ninja effort, rather than just buying Team Ninja.
All buying 3rd parties does is force the games to be Nintendo exclusive, but building new teams both opens up jobs, and increases the number of games we receive. Also, they can be very agressive in their hiring rather than their buying. Everyone cries over Microsoft buying up their competition, but for some reason we want Nintendo to.
I would love to see Nintendo buy Namco. There would be no more ignoring the Wii with their biggest franchises then!

In my opinion the N64 was not just the best console of the 5th gen but, to this day the best console ever created!
Nintendo should start new teams and get the new teams to make new IPs.
I LOVE ICELAND!

Rare used to be one of my favorite devs back in the late SNES, N64 days, but they have since turned to crap. Nintendo parted ways with them at the right time. PDZ was a pretty big disappointment, and their few games since then just look uninspired and mediocre.
I would say I'd love for Nintendo to buy Silicon Knights, or at least start working closely with them again, so they can get to work on that Eternal Darkness sequel that I have been anticipating for like 7 years now.
Also, maybe Xseed. They did a fantastic job with LKS, and Fragile looks awesome as well. I think I'm going to have to check out more of their Wii games, Sky Crawlers and Rune Factory both look very good.
While I wouldn't mind them buying smaller studios such as Grasshopper, Platinum Games or Vanillaware, Nintendo should invest in internal studios first.
A Nintendo + Sega would be awsome as long as they keep Sega away from the money bin...
