Forums - Nintendo - *Do You Miss Rare?*

Do you miss Rare working for Nintendo? 

I do as Rare was a great company with Nintendo and they worked well together. Rare was amazing during the 64 Gen(My 1st Gen) and I mainly miss Banjo-Kazooie. To be honest, I would trade Retro for Rare any day!

I'm not old enough to remember them, really.

No, I don't miss them. They fell apart towards the end of the N64 era and today they are just a shadow of their former selves and their butchering of Banjo-Kazooie is exemplary of what they are nowadays.

To be honest, you should be banned for your last sentence.

Rare still have talent, they've just made some realllllly stupid desicions this gen (like you said Banjo)

Viva Pinata's were great though



 

Its sad that they aren't what they used to be. Too bad a bit of them split off and formed Free Radical only to vomit up Haze and practically distintegrate. Seems both former Rare teams are stuck doing the minor work for parents now, only one team's latest game just sold 2.54 mil copies. I wonder if ol' Free Radical is kicking themselves yet for leaving.

I just want Timesplitters 4.



GOTY Contestants this year: Dead Space 2, Dark Souls, Tales of Graces f. Everything else can suck it.

Rare has a place on my good childhood memories.I do miss games like DK Country ,GoldenEye and Banjo-Kazooie. And even though I never liked fighting games I greatly respect Killer Instict.

With the recent release of DK Returns, no I don't miss them anymore. 



Above: still the best game of the year.

Neh.. she was fun while it lasted but we grew apart.. it happens.. sometimes I see her but she looks kinda fat.. I have no regrets dumping her.. but I do treasure the memories we share..



 

Face the future.. Gamecenter ID: nikkom_nl (oh no he didn't!!) 

Well I enjoyed their Kameo game...If they had more time with it they would have had a great game... for the rest don't miss them that much...Their are so many games that I want that I have no time for others;.
The time that I was counting the days for the next Rare N64 game release are over;.



 

Well, my two favorite Rare games, the games that got me into Rare; DKC and Goldeneye, are now on Wii, so no I can't say that I miss them.. And looking at their most recent products like Kinect Sports, Viva Pinata, Banjo Nuts and Bolts, etc, makes me miss them even less.



No don’t miss them at all
