  • Sony needs to buy up JRPG companies now that Xbox is the king of WRPGs. JRPGs vs WRPG's let's go!

Buying Rockstar would be a colossal deal

:mindblown: Rockstar has more cash than Sony right now :laff: why the fukk would they sell to a broker company :laff:

Take-Two Interactive has 2.75 billion cash on hand.

Take-Two interactive is worth $20 billion right now, which means they would need $30 billion at least to sell.

Sony has $2.5 billion cash on hand, which means theyd have to incentivize near $30 billion in a stock deal on a stock that for the most part is stagnant :dahell:

How the fukk Sony going to buy Take-Two/Rockstar :dahell:

dumbest forum on the internet currently ? :jbhmm:

you really believe right now that Rockstar has more capital ready than Sony?

Rockstar been blowing half of their investments into GTA and RDR, and they probably did it again as we speak for GTA VI.

Take Two takes a huge cut out of the profits let's not leave that out.
If Rockstar sells 50 mil GTA VI copies, Take Two getting 35 million

Square Enix's growth wouldn't increase as their titles already sell well on playstation

This. Square Enix is my favorite gaming company (I love JRPGs, they put out games I like, easy decision :manny:), but this is why besides the question "Is Sony even able to buy them if they wanted to?", there's no real reason to buy them out anyway. The consumer base is mostly PlayStation already and they've got timed exclusivity deals for their most anticipated titles. What they're doing now is pretty sweet on both ends, because Square has yet to put a title out exclusively for Xbox in recent memory (and they wouldn't, because Xbox is DOA in Japan). So they'll port the games to Xbox for the Western audience, but the company has a clear lean to PlayStation.

Despite people's personal preferences on here, Final Fantasy XV and Kingdom Hearts III sold extremely well. KH3's the highest selling title in the franchise to date, and FFXV's probably close to 10 Million sales overall. Final Fantasy VII Remake has sold five million copies and is the highest selling digital title in the company's history... And mind you, the game dropped right at the initial impact of COVID-19 where absolutely nobody knew what was going to happen. Final Fantasy XIV's extremely successful and is a damn near ATM machine with how well it's doing. Dragon Quest is huge in Japan, really huge. Ask Togashi what he thinks about the series. :mjlol:

So purchasing Square isn't a "bad deal", because they have three massively successful IPs, but there's no real gain on Square's end if they were to do it.
