But its prime target was Nintendo, according to a 2020 email leaked during the FTC v Microsoft trial.
Microsoft wanting to buy Valve and Nintendo should tell you just how much what they really want is a monopoly on gaming.
If Microsoft loves anything, it’s monopolies.
Is there a company they wouldn’t buy? Unity maybe?
Why not? Buy low, right? Best time to it is after a company stupidly tabled their value and trust right 😂
Honestly might not be such a bad idea. Unity is built on .Net, which Microsoft also owns. The teams could work together to get Unity modernized and cleaned up, and I bet developers would trust Microsoft more than Unity (Consider that Microsoft also owns VS Code, Github, npm and more that tons of devs frequently use)
God, please, no. If ever you heed your humble servant…
Somebody please tell Gabe that even if he would walk away with billions of dollars he’s going to lose his soul in the process.
It’s just not worth it, tell Microsoft to go take a long walk off of a short pier into a vat of battery acid.
It’s a bummer that the government wasn’t able to stop the recent acquisition of activision, but hopefully that cooled Microsoft’s eagerness a little.
Microsoft needs to to have a massive anti trust lawsuit thrown at them
Microsoft is a US company operating in the US. That means US law dose not apply.
What a coincidence, me too!
