Yes, and Microsoft will eventually acquire the world by 2020.

It wouldn't be really that big... I mean, Namco is good but it doesn't have the "goods" Square and capcom have... Sorry, just my opinion.

Interesting. Maybe this will be better for the TriForce Arcade Board? Also... Square or Capcom would be HUGE. I wonder if they could actually pull it off. Well, maybe, take the Q-Fund and use it for something. ;)

I don't believe it. First of all, Namco is pretty darn big. Just because Westerners don't see too many Namco games doesn't mean they don't put out a lot of software. And it's hype generating stuff, too.

Besides that, this isn't Nintendo's style. I have said it before, and I'll say it again. Nintendo prefers to take a small, up and coming developer under its wing and help it grow up into something great. It's more cost effective that way.
