hmm some people on this forum will have u believe that battletoads, perfect dark, conker are irrelevant franchises whenever I mention Nintendo made a mistake selling those IPs lol.

Now its great news?

Or maybe it's just the fact that Nintendo never owned those franchises, Rare did.

Nintendo would have had to have owned the franchises in order to sell them, it didn't.  It had a minority stake in Rare, not a majority.  And when offered the chance to own Rare outright, Nintendo declined.

I know rare owened them, but Nintendo ended up selling their share instead of buying it outright. 

The point ism it is funny when people say a franchise is irrelevant but when there is a chance it is coming to their platform suddenly its big news. Hint it is not the OP.

I hope not. Battletoads returning would be like Michael Jordan coming back from retirement. Just leave us with our fond (and not so fond) memories.


kinda my feelings too.  either the game is a total disappointment because it nerfs the games difficulty or it's a total diappointment because the game is too frustratingly fucking hard.  it's really a no win situation for this franchise.


I think yo can handle the difficulty thing with just a difficulty setting that ramps up quickly.  Plus Demon Souls and Dark Souls have proven that difficult games can sell well if done well.
