First off it says Banjo and Kazooie IP...MS owns Rare and Rare owns the IP. So it doesn't sound like Nintendo is after Rare, but the IP.
2nd. Rumors have it that Rare is working on Multiple Next gen xbox titles. It looks like MS is going to try and reintroduce rare maybe back to their roots. One of the games was reported to be a 1st person shooter...
I seriously doubt Rare the company is going anywhere. I doubt MS will give up the Banjo IP either.
