Rare would've been bought by Activision. Nintendo didn't provide Rare any more money and chose not to buy the rest of Rare's shares. Which came as a shock to many that Nintendo refused to outright buy Rare.
Activision made a compelling bid that Rare was very interested in, but Microsoft came in offering more money that Rare then accepted. So if it wasn't for MS, it would've been Activision.
