Pulled this off the feeds this morning from MarketWatch, waiting to see more reports start rolling in before I totally accept it, and given the booboo that’s in the article. (Damn death of reliable journalism)

Anywho going by this Mikey Mouse has gone from  buying Marvel to Stubbs the Zombie. While it doesn’t surprise me that Uncle Walk is moving further into the gaming sector with this possible aquisistion it does make me start to wonder where they’re going to go next. Or more aptly who are they going to buy next?

I know Disney has a respectable level of quality control usually (control being the operative word there) and they don’t limit themselves to purely children’s entertainment these days, it still makes me scratch my head and wonder not only what effect they will have on Marvel’s future releases but also the impact they will have on the Game Industry as they move further into the gaming sector.

There’s also if they keep aquiring game studios, with Disney’s marketing aparatus and brand visibility I wonder if they will crowd out the smaller publishers and makers in the kids game market and other areas. Between Disney and EA (Evil Empires rising! XD) if aquisistion trends continue I suspect we’re in for an interesting year or more of developments.

Something to watch develop as one drinks their morning coffee and contemplate if there really is a DOG.
