Shareholders approve Koei/Tecmo merger

The last of Tecmo's investors finally caved, giving the company's $207 million merger with Koei the green light. At the end of it all, Tecmo shareholders will come away with 0.9 shares in the merged company for every Tecmo share in their portfolios, while Koei stakeholders will net a one-to-one swap. The Japanese pair will officially tie the knot on April 1, giving us hope that Dynasty Warriors' disturbing lack of jiggle-tech may someday be realized. Those kingdoms, you know, they're not going to romance themselves.

how did the changeover make the avatar problem worse, precisely? It's gone back and forth a few times in the last half hour that i browsed the site...

Does this mean we can look forward to Ninja Gaiden Warriors Orochi Empires Xtreme?

oddly it seems to be the DS fanboys who are bitching the most. The Wii fanboys (yo) seem just fine with it

I suppose this can't be a bad thing, unless games start being canned, which is what happened the last time there was a major merger.
Thank God Ghostbusters got saved anyway.
