My understanding is that Nintendo owned 49% of Rare and Microsoft bought the other 51%, meaning that Nintendo really didn't have too much choice. But when you consider that Nintendo made a lot of money selling off the remaining shares and Microsoft didn't get much gamewise out of Rare after that... I think Nintendo did alright.
