Might not mean much to a lot of you guys, but this more than proves that someone (ie. Microsoft) is seriously been pursuing Nintendo behind the scenes

Might not mean much to a lot of you guys, but this more than proves that someone (ie. Microsoft) is seriously been pursuing Nintendo behind the scenes</div>

[G-man Joe]

<div style='font: 11pt "Fine Hand"; text-align: left; '>Sony? EA? Sammy(who da hell is Sammy)?</div>

[Julius Seeker]

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>Nope, it's Matsushita.</div>

[Julius Seeker]

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>Sammy? They're a videogame company that formed a year ago. I think they're mostly Ex-EA and Sega guys</div>

[Zeus]

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>Been a shade longer than a year. Look at who made Guilty Gear for the PSX. And they've gotta be fighting game guys, their big thing is a fighting game series</div>

[Julius Seeker]

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>I don't know, I thought I heard about their formation a year ago.</div>

[Kupek]

<div style='font: 10pt verdana; text-align: left; padding: 0% 10% 0% 10%; '>I think they've been around since the NES days.</div>

[Zeus]

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>Definetely not. Guilty Gear for PSX was by them, and I've owned games they developed for more than a year</div>

[Julius Seeker]

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>I haven't even heard of that game before.</div>

[Julius Seeker]

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>I don't know much about them, I have heard two things. One a year or two ago of their formation and that they employed Ex-EA, Sega of America, and Acclaim employees (so I doubt Sammy Studios has been around that long), and then just recently that Sega wanted to buy them out.</div>

[Zeus]

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>It's a popular fighting game series in Japan and each one has been released here (PSX and PS2)</div>

[Kupek]

<div style='font: 10pt verdana; text-align: left; padding: 0% 10% 0% 10%; '>I think there may be a difference between "Sammy" and "Sammy Studios." The site sammystudios.com says they formed in 2002, but a game that I have was published by "Sammy" for the NES.</div>

[Julius Seeker]

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>That might explain it, normally unless it's a fighting game made by Namco, I don't give it a second thought =P I'm not much of a fan for the genre.</div>

<div style='font: 11pt ; text-align: left; '>I thought you liked Soul Caliber?</div>

[Julius Seeker]

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>One of the best games ever made =)</div>
