because nitendo doesnt have the rights to the goldeneye ip. rare does.
but this is a awesome list

It is even more complicated than that:

Rare developed Goldeneye 007.

Nintendo published Goldeneye 007.

Microsoft currently owns 51% of Rare.

Activision has the current rights to publish games based on the James Bond IP.

 

 

ms owns 100% if im not mistaken(and not i need a link to to prove it). and i was trying to not go all the way off topic.and if you look two posts under i kinda explained it a little better.

 

 I believe this is correct. During the Nintendo days, Nintendo only owned 49%, with the Stamper family owning 51%. In 2022, the Stampers sold their part, and thus Nintendo did so too.

Not sure if it went precisely that way, but anyway - both Nintendo and the Stampers sold. Microsoft then owned 100%.

After a little digging, I do think that is right, but nothing I've found says it explicitly.  For the first post I just quickly used Wikipedia.  I guess they are wrong this time.

The point still stands though.

Batman...WTF? on 26 April 2009

I agree with everything up to Goldeneye 64, but only because I don't know the rest. I trust your judgement.

Iwata said all the English FFs of the first six will come over. So that's FF1, FF2, and FF6. (NES/SNES)

FF3, 4, and 5 didn't come over but they got those GBA remakes in English sporting the same graphics anyway so they can just put those on VC.

The English FFs of the first six are FF1, FF4 and FF6. No FF2 there.
