Microsoft buying Nintendo? I sense a great disturbence in the force.

Re: Microsoft wants to buy Nintendo
 

Sooooo, americans wouldnt buy a japanese made console because an american company bought them?

ok, past that bit of confusion;
IMO, they'd gain more players then they'd lose if MS bought em.

Re: Microsoft wants to buy Nintendo
 

Ok... but you're a loyal fanboy to a JAPANESE company, so I don't see how that has any relevence to this topic at all.

Say, if you were a true American patriot, wouldn't you be an Xbox fanboy?

EDIT: By the way, if what you say is true, those old people need to beat (just like all old people I guess). Being angry even after 50+ years after a war has ended is idiotic and in no way American patriotism.

Re: Microsoft wants to buy Nintendo
 

This is a pretty funny conversation to read.

If Nintendo was bought out my MS, I would start to play Nintendo games on MS systems. We need to go back to 2 systems on the market, so people like Joeiss can buy both, and enjoy all games, and a reasonable price.

I think Microsoft needs some cheese with that Whine.

"Pleeeease, let us buy you?"
"..No."

Re: Microsoft wants to buy Nintendo
 

If Microsoft buys Nintendo, everything will go topsy turvy, Tax will be cut! War will be waged! People will marry people of the same sex!! Madness i say, complete and utter madness!!!

I want to buy Nintendo too, i dont make a big hot fuss about it.

Meh. Microsoft are the whiney because this way they get rid of their biggest competition, but Nintendo cannot be sold. You cannot put a price on the smiles of children.


I think Microsoft needs a "Waaaambulance"

Or a Waamburger with cheese.

Nintendo's official response


so ya....



I'm all for microsoft and nintendo merging. There's too many awesome first party games that I can't play because there's 3 main consoles.

Nintendo would have unlimited resources to make some badass games. Halo 2 + Metroid on the same system.


Although, those stubborn japanese business men would probably die before letting their company be bought out. They'd probably grab their katanas and KILL BILL.

Re: Microsoft wants to buy Nintendo
 

If I ever saw Nintendo and MS join into 1, I would just stop buying new games that day and just go old school, literally.

Re: Microsoft wants to buy Nintendo
 

May I ask why? I can't believe people like you and GM would do such a thing.

Re: Microsoft wants to buy Nintendo
 

well aparently if im understanding it all.. i can be a number of reasons.

They are american and have great patriotism, so they only buy if its japanese. if an american company bought them out, its no good.

or... A Nintendo game is the greatest thing in the world. but if its the exact same nintendo game published by Microsoft... IT SUX0rs!@@%@!!!!


Possibly, this could all be a secret conspiricy. Nintendo has secretly hiddon sabliminal messages in thier games. people playing these games are brainwashed into never buying another companies games if something happens to nintendo. I myself am not effected by this because i havnt played a nintendo game in quite a while. When was the last time you played? BEWARE OF PLAYING NINTENDO GAMES!

Re: Microsoft wants to buy Nintendo
 

I've been a Nintendo fan since the days of the NES. So I can't picture myself jumping ship, just doesn't seem right to me.

Re: Microsoft wants to buy Nintendo
 

I think they'd do it just to blackmail MS. But why? Is giving up your favourite Nintendo games worth it?

The same type of people said that Rare was a crappy developer, when they were suddenly bought out by MS. But you never heard them say it before MS bought them.

So you're right, Null, I think if MS bought Nintendo all of the hardcore Nintendo fanboys would start saying it "suxorz".

But you aren't technically jumping ship. You're just going where Nintendo goes. Jumping ship for you, would be like going out and buying a PS2 or Xbox w/o Nintendo games on it. And then saying it was your favourite console... that's jumping ship... I did it once before when I was fed up with the crap Nintendo was putting out on it's systems.

Re: Microsoft wants to buy Nintendo
 

For the record, I never said Rare sucked after the purchase. Hardcore people are the ones who did.

And as for you saying what some people thinking, Nintendo games "suck" if they moved to MS, its not that for me at least. It's just the fact that they sold out to a corporation who will in 20-30 years control everything but the government.

Re: Microsoft wants to buy Nintendo
 

Wow.... Some people look way too much into videogames. lol. Just play games that are good, don't get into specifics.

Re: Microsoft wants to buy Nintendo
 

not really. i heard people complaining about them being 'crappy' before that.... thing is then, the nintendo fans wouldnt admit it....i find the ones devoted to MS are the ones that make up that story more often then not. Show me something rare has done good since N64 and i'll be amazed. because since then Rare has been horrible... when they actually get a game out that is.


The fanboy stories can be made up however you want to look at it....

Nintendo fanboys said rare sucked only after they were bought..... OR...Nintendo fanboys wouldnt admit rare sucked while they were with nintendo.
MS fanboys suddenly stoped saying rare sucked when MS Bought them. OR MS fanboys would just never admit they were good before MS bought them.


A game is a game. who cares who makes them, if its good its good.
