It's hard to tell. There were already faults appearing with Rare towards the end. Perhaps Nintendo saw the withdrawing talent and decided that things were too risky.
That being said, Nintendo acquired a huge share of Retro Studios around the same time. So the question is, would Nintendo have been better off investing that money in a major stakehold in Rare, or did Nintendo make the right decision going with Retro?
