Seems like a good deal for everyone but Capcom.
If Sony MH5 does well, the status quo continues and both Sony and Nintendo have MH games. Might strain Capcom's resources however.
If MH5 does poorly, nothing really changes for Sony and Nintendo has Capcom over a barrel because it would be confirmed MH needs Nintendo more than Nintendo needs MH. Guess who's not footing the western advertising bill anymore.
If MH5 does well and Nintendo fans respond poorly to the slight (unlikely), the game that likely generates the larger profit margin for Capcom fails to perform.
Assuming, of course, the full rumor is true.
