Nintendo of Japan had no idea how important Rare was to their software library, and refused to fund them or give them creative freedom. GameCube should have had an exclusive FPS from Rare by late 2002. Instead they just let them go. I think Retro Studios is headed in the same direction. They aren't making Metroid Prime 4, that's Namco. They aren't doing anything right now really. Nintendo of Japan will likely just sell them off or let them go soon enough.
