MS owns 100% of rare...even if the whole team quit, they own the properties Rare owns. They can make Battletoads, Perfect Dark, Killer Instinct, Conker, Banjo or Jet Force gemini games with or without Rare's help. So yeah, Nintendo ain't getting anything from Rare anymore...they have their cool 377 million that Microsoft paid.

Nope, Microsoft only owns 49% of Rare while Nintendo has 51%.


Dude don't be funny...I'm not the type that will paste a link to gloat and prove a point...look it up again man.


Not what I heard on other chat forums. Why would Viva Pinata be coming out on DS? Why was there a Banjo game on the GBA? I'm talking about shares in the company. Besides, if Rare were to screw this up with Microsoft, I'm pretty sure Rare will go crawling back to Nintendo (where they belong). I've read other threads on VGChartz about Microsoft and Nintendo's shares in Rare, but that was over the summer-autumn of last year.

Nintendo HAD 51 percent of Rare, and they sold it to MS. MS is making DS games because they don't have a handheld and they want to make some money.
