Microsoft to buy capcom? woah nelly

O.k. so when Microsoft bought Rare from Nintendo we knew they were serious about gaming but now there's this nasty rumour their buying Capcom????? It makes sense from Microsofts point of view as they have been tryng to sell there name in Japan for the past ten years, but one has to wonder how many billions they will have to shell out for the house that made, mega man, street fighter, viewtiful joe, resident evil, ghost n goblins, okami, darkstalkers( this list goes on forever.) My only thought is why would Capcom agree to a foreign buyer? True most of the original talent has left the company but there is a huge resource of people there that can carry them for a long time to come. If this is true which I'm sure Bill Gates checkbook will try to make it sure, I will have no choice (hell im already saving for it) but to make my house a two console place and buy a 360. I mean if street fighter 4 or viewtiful joe 3 ever are announced, what is a fanboy to do.
current arms race.
Xbox 360 many checks for agressiveness, marketing.
Nintendo wii, pure joy.
Sony PS3. Why the hell would i buy that thing for? Another edition of madden? oh yeah im supposed to want a blue ray player. please but no thank you.
