What would Capcom learn from Konami and vice versa? I think both have the same strengths and weakness.

Capcom tends to try new franchises while Konami doesn't.
Capcom tends to lean to the West at times while Konami leans to the East

Capcom has Shin Mimaki *spelling?* and Konami has Kojima

Capcom focus's more on consoles while Konami focus's more on handhelds and arcades

Nintendo and Blizzard. With Blizzards ability to just crap gold and wiz diamonds. And Nintendos money and there whole out there approach. there games would own.

Zelda, Mario, Metroid, Starcraft, Warcraft, Diablo(because thanks to nintendo we all know a sequal would happen much quicker), Starfox, Pikmin(imagine blizzard doing pikmin gasp)

Seriousaly not one combination lives up to that. and no neither Sony or Microsoft can be an arguement either. most of there 1st/2nd party games are from 2nd party developers they bought or have good relations with. Nintendo makes tons of great games inhouse.

Hardly, Konami was rather hit hard by the shift from 2D to 3D, while Capcom adapted better. The amount of franchises that Konami have let go in translation or has relegated to handhelds, and the overimportance that is given to Kojima and the Mertal Gear franchise by the obvious lack of the same level of presense of their other once flagship franchises is something Konami should definitively improve upon.

Capcom as it stands nowadays, is a more diverse and successful in it's diversity gaming company, and that's a shame, since I prefer Konami myself.

In that Clover games were good? Capcom makes more variety of games that end up great.

Do you know the amount of games Konami used make before to what they're makng now? It's a world of difference.

Capcom also has tons of succesful games like Resident Evil, Devil May Cry, Vietiful Joe, Dead Rising, Lost Planet, etc so far the last 2 gens. All konami has been is Metal Gear Solid. There console games stink outside of MGS.

Konami literally was God. Contra 3, Snatcher, Metal Gear 2, TMNT IV, Zombies Ate My Neighbors, Gradius III, Castlevania IV, etc. *Sigh* That list is depressing, reminds me of how awesome gaming use to be. :( And that's just from me playing the SNES and MSX, I could imainge how many awesome games they had for SEGA consoles *well besides Snatcher*

You were implying that Capcom closed down Clover because Capcom was having financial problems, but they weren't it was just that Clover was making them loose money.

Did I ever mention Capcom is my favorite gaming company? I was implying that Clover was a finical disater the put Capcom in the hole. In my eyes that is not successful.

Nintendo should never even be in the same sentence as. (had to end it) With blizzard due to blizzard being lightyears ahead of said company in quality. I believe Naughty Dog + Insomniac would be an interesting mix.

Possibly Konami and Square, and maybe Capcom.

Three major Japanese companies. The IP would be so thick you couldn't cut it with a buster sword.

um Nintendo made Metroid, Zelda, Mario platformers, Smash bros, Pikmin, Animal Crossing, Mario Kart, DOnkey Kong, Starfox, Fzero, etc.

Ocarina of Time, Mario 64, Wind Wake, SUper Metroid, Metroid Prime 1, a Link to the Past, Super Mario Bros, 3, SUper Mario World, Donkey Kong Country, DK 64, etc and the list goes on. Nintendo is above and beyond tons of devs. If Nintendo went third party it would be game over for most 3rd parties. they could not compete with Nintendo if they tried. Blizzard and Nintendo would be the greatest combination period.
