one thing annoyes me about Rare leaving

Pfft, their last great game for Ninty was Goldeneye 007, since then their only "must have" IMO is Viva Pinata. Rare left cuz they thought they were worth much more $$$ than they were, M$ agreed but most of Rare's talent left right after Goldeneye anyways so it was a good decision for Ninty not to have ponied up. VP would make a great Nintendo game though... oh wait, we get it for DS anyways nvm.bubnux

Perfect Dark? Conker's BFD? Banjo Kazooie? Jet Force Gemini? Donkey Kong 64?

and Viva Pinata wasnt even good IMHO

Yeah, I dont think it's right that something that came out on a NINTENDO console isnt allowed to go onto NINTENDO's virtual console, but is allowed to go to MICROSOFT's X-box live arcade.gamer6464

Why isn't it right? These are franchises created by Rare not Nintendo.

Microsoft do not belong... they just had to go and steal Rare games from Nintendo and Final Fantasy XIII from Sony.

People really shouldn't support Xbox... Microsoft makes enough money, why'd they have to dip their hands in the gaming Cookie Jar along with everything else they've got going, Zunes, PCs, Software. I'll shut up now.

I really want Donkey Kong 64 on the VC, It probably won't happen though.get-some-pie

DKC series are there too. Though a problem could be, that you have to play through an oldschool Raregame to reach the final boss... :/

Well, I don't care. They became average developers and I own most of their games on their N64 and SNES.

Same situation with DKC and that came out on vc. Nintendo owns DK, so they will release DK64 on the VC.

i think they should have left....but not to join anyone to be their own devs i dont see why they joined up with Microsoft thus killing 1/2 the franchises that made them popular webbut

Yeah, they are already killing Banjo Kazooie :(

Nice how you pass judgment on a game that hasn't even been released. God forbid developers from taking things at a different angle. Nothing's better than a franchise with 6 games that are completely the same but for the graphical enhancements. Christ...

Anyway, I pity Rare not being with Nintendo anymore, although their move did give them more artistic freedom in what to do (does anyone remember their hissy fit with Nintendo over Conker's Bad Fur Day?). Rare will always remain one of the most respectable developers for me, and one of the few to actually put a lot of effort and passion into their games. People who call them money-hungry traitors are nothing but Nintendo fanboys who have no clue of what actually happened. I'm not going to get further into it as it is a very long-winded and tiring discussion that is bound to bring back lots of old clichés.

ya rare blows now, they aint the same as they were , perfectdark went from one of my favorite series to not so favorite in a second of playing pd0 , as for the 3 remaining games , meh 1 was a censored port of conker for xbox , the next 3 are just nothing to look at ,

and bk nand b m , i dont know, after seeing it in action its starting to lose my interist,

face it , the good rare teams left,

half went on to create zoonami the other half created free radical , which is known for 5 games plus 2 more in development
