The Banjo-Kazooie thread

[DioShiba]

The fact that rareware was sold to nintendo alone was the death of them.

I think nintendo should at least try to purchase some of their franchises (especially banjo, perfect dark, and conker) because it could help nintendo a bunch at this point.

There was an article in Retro Gamer magazine about Rare recently. Former employees detailed the shift in working conditions once Microsoft took over - going from near-total independence and fun times to a standard hierarchy with a far more formal approach to business.
Young neckbeards do not like corporate culture.

And that's literally what happened. Microsoft literally wants to use rare's abilities to help bury their system, not actually make games. It's stupid because Microsoft doesn't even realize that isn't how bad that is for both sides.
