I know that Rare died a long time ago but how anybody can take this comparison seriously is beyond me... Kids these days.
Retro Studios is not even half of what Rareware used to be.

Rare CREATED Donkey Kong Country, Goldeneye, Perfect Dark, Banjo, Battle toads, Killer Instinct, Diddy Kong, Conker, Star Fox Adventures (Dinosaur Planet) all by themselves that even Miyamoto felt challenged and pressured by coworkers to make games like Rare.

Retro Studios while a talented studio have yet to prove anything really, Metroid Prime was the idea of Miyamoto and produced by Miyamoto and Tanabe. DKCR was also the idea of Tanabe and a return of an already well established franchise by Rare and....... That's it, not one game of their own.

If anyone has replaced Rareware it's Nintendo itself, it's not Nintendo + Rare anymore just Nintendo.

Then why hasn't Nintendo given us a new GoldenEye?

Because of multiple reasons:

1.Nintendo doesn't own the rights to James Bond, neither does Rare.

2.Nintendo and Rare have parted ways.

3.Technically we did get new GoldenEye games on multiple platforms, the shitty 2004 Rogue Agent and the solid 2010 remake just not by Nintendo but EA and Activision.

4. Nintendo has moved on and is far too busy giving us better games like Mario Oddysey and Zelda.
