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

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.

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?

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.

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

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!

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