Nobody wants that dumpster fire
microsoft
I'd buy that for a dollah
me
Nintendo
Just for close the circle
Sony
Microsoft should rather buy Bandai-Namco than SquareEnix.
Phil won't buy anything until the activision deal is finished so either sony or tim.
I hope nintendo poaches devs from team asano.
Kind of crazy that the Tomb Raider IP is worth less than $300m.
Sony paid $3b for Destiny, as a comparison.
If anything selling Eidos and Crystal Dynamics shows SE isn't interested in selling the whole company
Don't give a shit, tell me what JAVs have arcade chikan
imagine the smell of raping the スト player...
it's a walking corpse so definitely Microsoft.
Tencent
Maybe Destiny made more money than TR.
NOT MY DEUS EX FUCK OFF
I still think this needs another brainlet holding the microphone
Yes it's implied but the retards here need it on their nose to get it.
Nintendo won't buy shit unless they absolutely have to. Their closest partners have gone unpurchased for decades.
Sony massively overpaid
give me the jav code, now
Maybe but on the other hand destiny money wasn't enough for bungie to fund new projects nor expand themselves.
I just saw leakers hinting nintendo are going to buy more land in kyoto lel
Probably Sony.
Me
Maybe bungie's new projects were $500M ideas like Destiny.
I mean that Nintendo going to buy Square Enix for pity
With cheap money
i remember watching this one, it was pretty good
it's just a gravure shoot she doesn't do porn
Microsoft
Either Sony or some Japanese megacorp no one in the west has heard of.
this just makes me miss craig ferguson, the only ever based talk show host
Tencent
This.
Why would you ever want Square-Enix and it's inept management?
May as well just buy the Final Fantasy or Dragon Quest IPs and give them to better companies to handle.
Tiple AAA development and publishing is going to be fully dead soon.
Sony, they have their own Western studios so they told them to sell Crystal
As long as it's not sony
Microsoft buying Actishit
Nintendo too small
leaves either
Snoy or Tencent
>Company does business thing
>Woah they're gonna be bought by Sony Or Microsoft any day now guys!!1!1!
Why are people like this now
What absolute mongoloid would buy SE? They have no valuable IPs at all and their workers clearly aren't very good at their jobs. Even Sega would be better.
Me.
Tencent cannot buy Square-Enix, though. They are a foreign company.
Realistically, only Sony could pull that off and even then it might not be worth it.
I wouldn't care if Snoy bought them anymore.
Hoag (youtube corpo lawyer who covers game stuff and has been right 90% of the time on this stuff) seems to read the SE documents not as
>we're getting out of Western gaming
and more as
>we're getting out of SP in favor of GaaS
this is supported with the 40+ GaaS titles they have under dev atm and the recent statements by the CEO about 'blockchain' and 'players might not have fun'

Gonna laugh my fucking ass off if MS buys it and KH4 (and the rest of FF7) ends up bring Xbox / PC exclusive
Could you imagine the seethe?
>Tencent cannot buy Square-Enix, though. They are a foreign company.
Made up law parroted by dumbasses for over a decade.
Weirdly enough it made sense for Microsoft to shit out 300m on a casual buy like this, its really weird Embracer got it and for so cheap. CD is helping make Perfect Dark too so it makes even more sense for Microsoft to buy these studios. So if Microsoft isn't willing to drop 300m on these, I don't think they would spend the few billion on the rest of Square.
Exclusivity becomes unviable if Microsoft ends up owning 50% of all gaming IPs.
If anyone besides Nintendo bought them it'd be the death of that company in Japan.
MS probably only wanted the Western studios and now that they're gone, they have no value to them
Maybe MS isn't in a position where they can buy anything until the AB acquisition is complete? I don't know if that's how it works and I'm a dumbass when it comes to these things.
>Tencent cannot buy Square-Enix, though. They are a foreign company.
Needing to tell the Japanese government you wish to buy Square Enix and having regulators look at your plan =/= you can't buy Square Enix.
My guess is that since they are too busy with Activision, they let this slide. The games are gonna continue to be third party, and now MS no longer needs to deal with SE when working CD. They can probably get more exclusive deals from this since SE always favored Sony between the two.
>Made up law parroted by dumbasses for over a decade.
Its not exactly made up, but it isnt correct either. Square is listed as one of the 500 and some companies that would require regulator approval prior to being purchased by a foreign investor.

Its specifically to block chinks from buying out Japanese tech companies.
Nigger, Saudi Arabia bought SNK last month. That so called "law" doesn't exist
Blizzard
Hopefully a recycling center
>tw*tter thread
Kill yourself. You are a waste of oxygen.
please not snoy please not snoy please not snoy please not snoy please not snoy
If I bought it I'd just nuke it and fire everyone.
Woops, I made a mistake. Square Enix is listed as a (1) here, which means:
>Companies conducting business activities only in non-designated business sectors (subject to post-investment report only)();
Cope and seeth weebs.
>I don't know if that's how it works and I'm a dumbass when it comes to these things.
There's nothing wrong about the activision deal when you take into account precedents such as the fox acquisition however once in a while US officials have to say no to a big corporation so people still feel they give a fuck about protecting the market.
do women really wear sleeves not connected to anything
armpit sluts do
