Rare owns DKC rights I think. Otherwise, I'm sure there would have been a lot more games. Hence why they replaced a few characters from Diddy Kong Racing DS. If rumors are true about them switching over to Sony, it'll only be a few years before Rare are back with Nintendo (and then the cycle continues).

Really? Why would rare own rights to a nintendo game? Anyway it doesn't have to be DKC just something as good.

 

 

Rare used to be Nintendo exclusive. Back in the day where Goldeneye, Perfect Dark (the original), Donkey Kong Country, Diddy Kong Racing, Banjo-Kazooie and Conqers Bad Fur Day were out. From what I understand, Nintendo got pissed off about the Conkers game and pretty much shoved Rare out the door because Nintendo wanted to be "family friendly" and Rare wanted to well...show perfect squirrels fucking shit up. All games went to Rare except Donkey Kong who was owned by Nintendo, so Rare pretty much just let them keep Diddy Kong and the assorted other characters from those games (except Banjo and Conker of course).

I know, but you said you think rare owns DKCs rights, when it is a nintendo franchise. The other games were rare franchises thouhg(banjo, Pefect Dark, Conker).
