The irony is, had all the Xbox Rare games been on a Nintendo console, they'd be considered classics right now.

There are several Nintendo Rare games that aren't exactly considered classics...


Donkey Kong 64

Nope, Game Freak is the Original & Best Pokemon series creators.
Genius Sonority is a Company hired by Nintendo to do the Console games of Pokemon

I seriously doubt that, Rare's quality control left with Free Radical and Zoonami.

What quality control?

Kameo is a good game, Viva Pinata is a GREAT game and PDZ is also good. Just because it didn't live up to expectations, doesn't mean it's a bad game.

Conker, was well, Conker and only Grabbed by Ghoulies really sucked. So, I'm dying to know where this lack of quality control comes from.

The Teams that made Epic games while working for Nintendo left shortly before Microsoft bought them out. I'm not saying Rares games are bad but had Rares best teams did PDZ or Kameo they would have been Much, Much better.

You know Kameo started development back on the 64 right?

No it wasn't

Kameo was originally slated for the Nintendo Gamecube and was set to be one of Rare's flagship titles for the system, along with Star Fox Adventures and Donkey Kong Racing. However, when Microsoft announced its purchase of Rare in late 2002, Kameo's future was put in question. It was decided that work would continue on the Xbox, and a planned release date of 2003 was given. After several revamps, causing repeated delays, Kameo was put on indefinite hold in late 2004. Following this, rumours began that the game was once again undergoing a platform change, this time from the Xbox to the Xbox 360, where it was officially, the first game for the system.

Also, with the launch of the game brought with it the sale of an official soundtrack featuring 27 musical tracks from the game.

This was after Rares best teams left.

SLATED for Cube. I never said it was going to be released on the 64. I said it started development on 64. I should have said DURING the 64's era. Like Starfox did.

Remember Dinosaur Planet? That became Starfox Adventures for Cube. Whereas Kameo just kept getting pushed.
