Nexon Wants to Buy Electronic Arts?

Yep. The question mark was intentional. That was literally the question I had in mind when I read the news. Also: Does Nexon (a South Korean MMO developer/publisher, responsible for Maple Story) actually have enough money to buy EA and not the other way around?

It turns out they do, according to a recent Forbes.com article.

Nexon's announcement last week was that they are looking to buy up developers, with EA part of the companies that they are bidding on. As for Nexon's funds, the publisher has actually been doing good, raising $1.2 billion last year in Japan's biggest IPO of 2011, Nexon has since seen rapid growth.
