    In a move that can't be good for nintendo, SN systems is now sony property.

    Just as they bought and killed off psygnosis for psone, it seems SN is doomed to vanish into the sony machine as well.

  4. ...It's Dev Software and in some cases Hardware.

    This is not good at all. Now there's no independent hardware developer anymore. I loved the SNSystems GBA kit, it was much better than the one that Nintendo themselves released. Their gamecube kit was great too, the T-DEV was amazing.

    I'm sad to see SnSystems go away.

    I am not a big sony fan so maybe sony will overspend and end up like Interplay or Acclaim :)

    I know unlikely but one can hope

    One can only imagine that bankruptcy auction!!:smt033


    Still, it's too bad about SN systems. Another big loss for Nintendo.
