Oliver 22,442 Posted June 17, 2014 Share Posted June 17, 2014 Apparently Capcom is open to being bought out. I think its time for Nintendo to make a move. I think they would be foolish not to tbh~~. Capcom would be perfect for Nintendo. I think they will be able to do many of their franchises justice. Megaman would definitely make an amazing comeback. and the best Resident evil games were the GC exclusives. Plus Nintendo had already stated back in January that they were considering and researching about mergers and acquisitions. Also lets be honest out of the big 3, Nintendo needs capcom the most. Since they aren't getting any 3rd party support. Since Platinum Games have such a close relationship with Nintendo making Boyenetta & Wonderful 101 games like Okami, Viewtiful joe, Devil May Cry, Godhand, would also be revived.. They need to make a move as soon as possible. http://www.gamasutra.com/view/news/219300/Capcom_shareholders... http://www.capcom.co.jp/ir/english/news/html/e140616a.html ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Who would be up to buy Capcom? Apparently there is this new law in Japan that Japan based companies can not be sold to international Buyers.. So Microsoft, EA & Activision are out.. Sony just reported that they are actually Losing money even with the success of their gaming department.. so don't think they are up for it.. So the only one I could think of is Nintendo..

Seditary 5,876 Posted June 17, 2014 Share Posted June 17, 2014 Not surprised with how Capcom has been going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oliver 22,442 Posted June 17, 2014 Author Share Posted June 17, 2014 Not surprised with how Capcom has been going. Back in September Capcom only had about 125 million dollars in the bank.. which is nothing for these big gaming companies.. that could barely cover a year's expenses..

His Majesty Robosexual 446 Posted June 17, 2014 Share Posted June 17, 2014 I'd be for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taku 1,254 Posted June 17, 2014 Share Posted June 17, 2014 That would be my incentive for me buying a WiiU even though I barely play any capcom games lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oliver 22,442 Posted June 17, 2014 Author Share Posted June 17, 2014 I'd be for it. I hope it really does happen!.. I mean Mega Man is already in Smash.. and Monster Hunter & Ace Attorney are Nintendo exclusives.. Could you imagine having all capcom games exclusively for nintendo *_*??

I'm curious how Devil May Cry would play on the WiiU (or even the 3DS). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lag 187 Posted June 17, 2014 Share Posted June 17, 2014 This is Atlus all over again. People were begging Nintendo to buy them and it didn't happen. History says they will be bought by a company nobody could have predicted, so there's not much point getting your hopes up. That being said, they would give Mega Man, Monster Hunter, Okami, Viewtiful Joe, and Ace Attorney very loving homes. The problem is Street Fighter. It will lose a lot of fans if it becomes Wii U exclusive, and it's Capcom's most popular franchise along with Mega Man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nintendo stated back in January that they are looking into big Business ventures and Mergers .. Honestly I really do not think that its going to happen.. but I'm being optimistic and hopeful.. Capcom would be the perfect fit for Nintendo.. Megaman is already gonna be in Super Smash Bros which will be amazing for reviving the series.. Monster Hunter is doing the best its ever done.. on 3DS it literally sold more than Mario Kart 7 In Japan! which is insane!!! Resident Evil's best games were the ones on gamecube.. Literally.. Ace Attorney is also doing great on Nintendo.. Street fighter would be good for nintendo.. Nentendo does not have any legit fighting games aside from super smash.. which comes out every 5-6 years! so having another one would be amazing! It could really work in nintendo's favor! But then again I could see it being bought out by a 3rd party company.. since having it just for one console may cut its revenues in half.. if not more..
