It would have been nice if Nintendo didn't sell Rare

Guys. Microsoft bought Rare. It was a matter of them having a lot more than Nintendo. Nintendo didn't want them to go. They were their best 3rd party developer at the time. Microsoft bought them as a way to undermine Nintendo. This is well known.

It worked GameCube flopped. A generation on Nintendo Wii has turned it around in a blink of an eye, Wii has bolted ahead of its competition.

Umm, so GameCube flopped because Nintendo lost Rare? And Wii now won because Nintendo still doesnt have Rare?

Brilliant logic.

 I agree, the only game RARE developed for the Gamecube was Starfox Adventures which was alright but not great. So Nintendo let RARE go at the right time which was a shame because I loved Banjo Kazooie, Perfect Dark, etc.
