Most definately. Rare will never recapture their past glory under current circumstances. I think Shigsy was more of an influence to Rare than he's given credit for.

I think you need to take off the fanboy goggles. The Stamper brothers' groundbreaking graphics technology in Donkey Kong Country is one of the main reasons Nintendo secured victory in the 16-bit era. So much so that Nintendo even put pressure on Miyamoto to make Super Mario World 2 more like Donkey Kong Country.

Unfortunately for fans of Rare, the Stamper brothers jumped ship after MS bought them out, and the programmers responsible for Goldeneye and Perfect Dark are also long gone (mostly at Free Radical), so the BK3 team are the last hope for Rare recapturing their glory days.
