Does anyone know how one would go about purchasing one of the companies behind pirate games? Just out of curiosity.

/not entirely serious

one of the companies? uh well I guess find one that's still in business (not many are) then go out to China/Taiwan with a bunch of money and see if they'll sell up

You'd track down the people that ran the company and then make a business proposition. Considering the vast majority of those companies are long dead, I doubt you'd have a hard time getting someone to give rights to you so long as you had a very good offer. And that's where it likely wouldn't happen because I doubt any random person is going to have enough money for such a thing.

If by some chance you were actually serious and have real business money, let us know

One or two people have managed this in some way. SuperFighterTeam's Brandon Cobb comes to mind. He purchased the rights to some C&E titles as well as Panda Entertainment (iirc).

Let it in the past mate. No need for more Pabich bullshit, and a few others come to mind as well.

While not necessary, I'd like to have an idea of how much of my studio's budget I'm going to spend on strange things.
