I dont know if this has ever been talked about on here but did microsoft hurt nintendo when they bought out RARE?

RARE did make some of the best games on nintendo platforms. When microsoft purchased rare, they got ahold of some major games that once played a major role on nintendo. Has this ever been discussed on here?

Agree? or no?

I think they hurt gamers more than they hurt Nintendo... and now, they are hurting themselves since kinect sports rivals was a flop

Another "Rare is a shell" thread is forming I see.

Xbox: Best hardware, Game Pass best value, best BC, more 1st party genres and multiplayer titles.

I guess there is a reason why it's not talked about.

If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.

I think so. Nintendo has been recycling the same franchises for how long now? I'm sure fans would like more variety. Plus Rare's output was something else.
