By the time Nintendo sold Rare, the people who had made it great were, for the most part, already gone. I doubt they would rejoin if Nintendo were to repurchase them, and so in the end it wouldn't mean all that much. Reassembling the original team would be another matter entirely, but that's not going to happen.
Complexity is not depth. Machismo is not maturity. Obsession is not dedication. Tedium is not challenge. Support gaming: support the Wii.

What do I hate about modern gaming? I hate tedium replacing challenge, complexity replacing depth, and domination replacing entertainment. I hate the outsourcing of mechanics to physics textbooks, art direction to photocopiers, and story to cheap Hollywood screenwriters. I hate the confusion of obsession with dedication, style with substance, new with gimmicky, old with obsolete, new with evolutionary, and old with time-tested.
There is much to hate about modern gaming. That is why I support the Wii.
