It did well for Nintendo. That was on the N64. Just think of what Banjo could have sold on the Wii!

and that is why i think the Masterminds at Rare left

Nintendo didn't do the greatest when Rare was with them on N64 and Gamecube. They probably thought that Ninty was going under at that point and felt like MS was the better company to go with at the time. Could you imagine how everybody at Rare must have felt when they seen how the Wii exploded after they left Nintendo for MS?

they jumped off a sinking ship a couple seconds before it turned into an airship and flew passed the other ships that were still in the water

that's life

Nintendo owned 49% of the company.  The Stamper brothers wanted to sell the remaining stake to Nintendo, but Ninendo did not want it.  So they looked for another buyer, and Microsoft ended up taking it.
