It still amazes me that on the N64 Rare and Nintendo were considered near equals when it came down to quality of games.

Compare that to nowdays where Nintendo stands like a giant monolith with profits towering down over everyone else. Nintendo has what, a lineup twice as massive as EA and it's profits are more than three times that of Activision-Blizzard? Even companies like Valve and Square stand below the giant that is the Nintendo software machine. Its an odd situation to see Rare sitting in a dark corner with next to nothing, then realize that a few years ago Rare and Nintendo were practically equals

If you think that's odd, consider the once fierce battle between Nintendo and Sega.  They were practically equal at one point and look at them today.
