Nintendo should have bought Rareware when they had the chance


No they shouldn't have. Most of the talent had left the company, and the founders were also selling their share and leaving.  Nintendo would have basically been buying the company for its IPs, which didn't have a lot of value to them.  MS needed them more, since they needed some family-friendly content.   The Rare of today is bascially a new company.  The staff from the Nintendo days are all mostly doing new things.


IMO giving miyamoto or Sakurai the Banjo-Kazooie IP would have made it all worth it



     
Games can and should tell stories and share ideas through their mechanics. This is the intrinsic element of the medium and this is how experiences should be crafted in video games. No company does this as well as Nintendo and their echoes from the past.
