I think that's a good point. Losing Rare's output was a blow, but losing Rare the company wasn't. A lot of the talent had left and started other studios.

Honestly, even though it turned out fewer games than Rare during its golden age, Retro, I think, filled that void nicely.

nintendo pretty much guided rare to greatness.

I think that's a big part of it. Nintendo's financial and professional support really helped Rare, as did a healthy competition between EAD and Rare.
