If he did buy it how do you think the gaming community would look in say 5 or 10 years from now?

If he buys it I'm getting an I-Mac.

Why? He already owns part of Apple. But he does not however own any part of Nintendo... yet.

It matters not whether you win or lose; what matters is whether I win or lose.

Nintendo won't budge. Atleast they shouldn't...And if they do.....homicidal rampage!

I would forsee a tragic event in Mr. Gates' future if he attempts this. As well as the current owners of Nintendo if they give in.

  1. This is all based off of rumor
  2. Nintendo has no reason to sell
  3. Microsoft can't buy Nintendo. Mergers of large companies have to be approved by some government committie to prevent monopolies, and if you think Microsoft is going to get by by playing Mr. Innocent, where have you been for the past decade?

Microsoft is going to buy Blizzard next! GASP!

MightyJoe 2004-08-04 09:24 PM

He would definetly own a great percentage of the console world then. Another monoply to be broken up?

This is like some weird SciFi movie. Gates is the evil-mastermind behind it all.

Though, I doubt it'd realistically happen. Though, he is worth like 44 Billion alone.

!King_Amazon! 2004-08-05 12:04 AM

I'm sure he could do it if he wanted to.

D3V 2004-08-05 12:14 AM

Microsoft is going to own the U.S. government before we know it...or do they already?

Slim 2004-08-05 12:18 AM

They already do, Bush sold it for a shiny piece of tin foil.

And some magic beans...

I thought we traded our country for the weapons of mass destruction!

Though, if Gates does find some way to actually buy Nintendo, maybe the Xbox and GC will make a baby! XCUBE! GAMEBOX!

Raziel 2004-08-05 11:02 PM

Won't happen. Nintendo just spent nearly 6 billion dollars buying back their own stock in order to prevent this from happening.
