Its not a weak argument. Microsoft never had the first party credentials to run Rare properly. Give Rare back to Nintendo or Sony and they will make something out of the resources better than Microsoft. Microsoft has always had the worst first party and the other companies dont need to buy other peoples IP's just to have hits.

If Sony ran them Rare would probably get closed or sold like numerous other studios.

They would have done fine under Nintendo making the same games they made for MS. Because the Nintendo audience enjoys their style of games more. We've seen that time and time again. Casual, family friendly stuff with a 1st party push has generally done very well on Nintendo.

Sony has bought numerous studios to get hits.. and got rid of numerous studios for not making hits. If you like linear cinematic experiences Sony is great, they are amongst the best at that. But MS makes enjoyable games that are more fun. Its not even a matter of who makes better exclusives, MS objectively just makes games that are more fun.

Dude...Sony has more successfully purchased studios that they revamped and turned into their own opposed to Microsoft. Sorry, but if I were to take your words as fact I would've been misled. Sony directs their companies better.
