Video game giant, Capcom, is now open to a total buyout via stocks, thanks to a reversal in an older decision to not allow any shareholder to have complete control over the company.
Capcom is well known for it's games, from Resident Evil to Megaman, the company has no doubt created legends in the gaming industry, but you might be forced to buy a specific platform or from a specific company soon to pick up a Capcom product. According to IGN.com, the company made clear today that they are opening the option to stockholders with massive shares in the company. A business enactment made in 2008 from Capcom would've made this nearly impossible, but after it was announced they had around 200 million in their bank, they opened this up as a sort of final effort. Of course the company will overview with it's board of directors before making a final call as to if someone with a large enough hold on the company shares may take control. This could be an easy game buy for major companies like Sony, Microsoft, or Nintendo in need of exclusives to sell their consoles. Even larger publishers like EA and Activision could make stellar profits from this with very little investment.
What do you think of the massive possibility that this legendary company will be under the reigns of someone else as a likely exclusive? Let me know in the comments below, thanks for reading!
