This has been on the cards for ages and - IMO - at the root of the Konami / Kojima split. Japan has been going heavily down the route of "pick up and play" mobile gaming for a while now... the games are far cheaper to make and therefore, there's a bigger potential for huge profit margins, whereas story-driven AAA games cost a fortune to make so have to sell very well to break even.
They still might sell off things like Metal Gear - however I don't think another Japanese company would buy it, it would have to be a Western one. Naughty Dog plz plz plz?
