Personally, I hope Nintendo buys out Megaman and the other iP's just disappear.
 
Sounds like a p4r gaming article title.
 
Still, Sony could buy them.

If they buy Capcom, what would happen to Mega Man regarding his Smash Bros appearance?

He'll probably get removed, just as how future Diddy Kong Racing games no longer have Banjo or Conker.

First off, SOny doesn't really have the money to spare to buyout. Secondly, they'd be forced to honor Capcoms contract anyway.
 
Nintendo has expressed interest in expanding themselves, but are they really that willing to acquire such a fairly large company?
 
Please please PLEASE let the buyer continue Phoenix Wright
 
I don't see anything really changing for Capcom other than a transition from multi-platform to single-platform releases, depending on how much stock any one company decides to acquire (I'm basing this on the assumption that the buyer is a video game company).
 
Don't care who buys them as long as they keep their nose out of their developments.

Having said that, Nintendo seems to be a good fit for them imo.
