Buy off the rest of the stock and become major share holder, Sony.

You would gain so much more respect in mobile if you have a company like Mobage.

And then you could compete with Gaikai.

Weird move, DeNA (parent of Mobage) has seen significant rises in revenue and take-up in just the last year.

However it never really made any sense for Sony to have shares in them, since they have their own platforms and you'd be stumped to find anyone who actually associates Mobage with Sony, so hardly any real loss in goodwill brand worth.
