Really? I'd say Facebook is the garbage company when put up against Google.

Yeah, but at least they own oculus rift.

I don't think Google owns anything noteworthy in terms of gaming software.

Is this your mating call?

No, it's Tommy Wiseau's;

 

[Starcutter]

Didn't capcom say that they would only be bought out by Japanese companies anyways?

If so, i'm pretty sure Facebook and Google are out of question.

 

[Deleted member]

I just hope Konami doesn't get their hands on Capcom, they've already been doing a lot of shady things lately & focus solely on Metal Gear while they don't touch Hudson's old IPs (Rip Bomberman), Metroidvainias, or Silent Hill.

 

[Thirdkoopa]

Whats this about nintendo buying capcom?

tl;dr: capcom is probably going under so a japanese company can buy capcom. Chances are on Nintendo, but really, anything is possible.

I reeeeeeeeeeally hope Nintendo doesn't pass this up. There's way too many good things that could come out of this. Megaman, Resident Evil, Street Fighter, Viewtiful Joe, Okami, Phoenix Wright, Darkstalkers, Breath of Fire, Ghouls N Ghosts... so many great franchises that could be made even better with the Nintendo touch.

 

[Sil]

Nintendo really should buy Capcom.

MEGAMAN FOR SMASH!!




Wait...

 

[TheFirstPoppyBro]

How much is Capcom selling for, anyway?

Or has that not been determined yet?

 

[Rocket Raccoon]

Nintendo. Give Mega Man the love he needs.

You know, the funny thing is it'd probably be more beneficial for Nintendo to just drop most of the people that work at Capcom and take the IP's

 

[Morrigan]

omg no it just hit me. Even the most remote plan of bringing Darkstalkers back to life is now down the drain.

Nintendo could make a new Darkstalkers. You never know. Assuming they buy Capcom.

 

[Rocket Raccoon]

Plot twist: Sony buys Capcom.

 

[Deleted member]

I'd think it'll take a few years or less before anyone wants to get Capcom, since you kind of want their upper management to get out first, those guys are absolutely toxic...& I mean really toxic.

You think if Nintendo buys them they won't be so toxic?

 

[Ta1nted_4ngel29]

I'd have bought Capcom and make their ceo's commit sepuku. Afterwards, I'd bolster their ranks for their current projects, and make them all Nintendo exclusive, and not do their toxic business practices.

 

[Deleted member]

Probably....from what I've seen people like Itagaki, Inafune,& Kamiya are saying; having to work with them was a good idea & wouldn't mind doing another game with them

Who knows though, Miyamoto could be cranky one day & say: NO! WE'RE NOT MAKING MEGA MAN!

QUICK NINTENDO, USE THE MASTER BALL!!

OK, heres my impossible character for Smash! What a story!

Oh hi, Mario!

Somebody already made a moveset!

 

[Ta1nted_4ngel29]

Anyone see this?

 

[CrusherMania1592]

Most of my sex partners have been around ten years older than me, LOL.

The first (and only so far) I've had sex with is like 31 years older. Don't ask me how or why: I have a thing for older people more than my own age

I guess you can say that, but I've never really watched that show.

You have to watch the first three seasons (Mighty Morphin), then the rest is up to you. Normally I'd also advice Time Force, Zeo, In Space, and Lightspeed Rescue for starters.


Capcom is possibly sold? MEGMAN AND ZERO FOR SMASH 5...if Nintendo snatches that ****

 

[aldelaro5]

So, I read about capcom being open to takeover if a company buys enough stock? Can anyone who knows better business can tell me what does that mean?

Guy or girl? Or genderqueer?

Publicly listed companies have boards of directors which are voted on by stockholders.
10% of a vote (based off your ownership of the company) is enough to get a seat on the board.
50.000000000000000000000..............................................................1% is enough to get you a majority, meaning deciding on 6 board members, pretty much equating to complete control of a company.

Capcom had in place regulations to disallow bulk selling or other things which would result in feasible company take over; this usually means something like only 1 specific person/organisation may have a controlling portion of the company (I've seen this equate to a wide variety of options/restrictions on 'outsiders'; <10% so they cannot guaranteed board members, 18-20% to be a stakeholder, 49.9% so you can't take over, etc). They've removed these restrictions.

So Nintendo can buy it right?

oh ok so what this means is:

If a company is willing to pay for ]50 , 100] % of stock, this company would take control of it and pretty much buying it. The only thing is that they couldn't do before because of those restrictions.

But then, why removing them? Are they seeking a new owner?

 

[Radical Bones]

Anyone see this?

Yeah, it was a fake leak that appeared before E3. The TV it's on is the same as an E3 2013 shot. Unfortunately. I'd love this to be real.

Yes.

Dang.

 

[Shaya]

I'm not sure of current company ownership structure. Who owns the majority? If no one owns the majority, then yes. I'm assuming if this is the case, all the "individuals" who own significant portions of stock were not allowed to sell them.

But then, why removing them? Are they seeking a new owner?

As you asked the right question I'll finish my last paragraph here.
No, not necessarily. People want to sell stock in large amounts most likely, and previously were not allowed to (that individual with 19% couldn't buy 1% from someone with 30%, or that person with 19% would rather still maintain control on the board but would rather tunnel investment elsewhere and be willing to cut 9%). Acquiring 50% of a company's stock isn't easy without widespread plans.

serious points for those wtf chars though

If I DID hook up with the girl

I wonder the chances I could get her to wear a pink ranger costume

Kind of a random question, but are you from the Minecraft forums?

Wouldn't an Angewomon costume be better? >_>

I am on the minecraft forums, but haven't really been active much in a long while

It's a girl that looks like the pink ranger from Mega Force

Surely it must be real, no one could guess Pink Gold Peach.

I'm hoping Konami goes no where near this. They bought out Hudson only to kill them and several of their projects off within months. They pretty much have Bomberman hostage. I'm really wondering if there were a demand for Bomberman for Smash 4 and if that game came out would we have seen the white bomber make the cut... Such a missed opportunity.

 

[TeenGirlSquad]

Well

I'll be hoping and praying for Nintendo to bite.

But I wouldn't be disappointed if SEGA took it.

I'm aware of that. Then again, I don't know exactly what your plans are here. You clearly have a Ranger fetish, though.
