Microsoft to buy Rare?

[Professor S]

I MS were to buy 100% of rare, then Nintendo would recieve 25% of the money. But if they were to only buy the Stamper Bros and Rare Ltd. shares, I don't think Nintendo would receive anything.

Then again, seeing that Nintendo is an investort in Rare, they might receive a portion of the revenue from the sale if it is deemed profits made by the company.

I'm not sure on any of this as this stuff can get REALLY complicated.
