The expectations during their Nintendo days were also a lot lower. A game like Goldeneye or Banjo Kazooie isn't AAA by today's standards.
The games they did for MS platforms like Kameo and Perfect Dark Zero were high quality compared to what they did in the past, but expectations have changed so much. Kameo would have done great with a Nintendo audience, it would have even been a AAA game for the Wii. Perfect Dark Zero was lame because it wasn't at par with shooters of the time. But still technically one of the best shooters Rare ever created.
A lot of studios that made great games in the 90s have struggled to stay relevant. That's why many of them disappeared or changed to appeal to modern audiences.

I disagree... I played Goldeneye theses days ago and the gameplay is better than any recente FPS... I don't know if the N64 controller is so good for it but the fact this game yet have the same revolucionary gameplay showed more than 10 years ago makes me really happy.
Perfect Dark Zero even using the same formule is not on pair with Goldeneye.
And Donkey Kong for SNES is yet better than NSMB for Wii U... and Killer Instinct better than the latest Mortal Kombat (of course Street Fighter IV is better than all of them but that's another case because the IV is the fist in the franchise to really make me fell like the old SFII are back).
So I disagree because the old Rare games are the best yet and better than most games released today.
