I tend to agree that the loss of Rare (or rather gain for Microsoft

) was very shocking. I didn't expect Microsoft to go that far at all. And Nintendo to sell them, either. I felt very bad when Rare transferred over, but now, I'm kind of happy. I just thought it was kind of shocking at the time, you know?

Ok, now, I know about the Square-Enix merger, how it was "big", but it wasn't as talked about as Microsoft-Rare. At all. Go back to those topics and you'll find that Microsoft-Rare had even bigger threads with more replies, and in some cases, multiple threads. It was big, and there's no doubt about it.

As for Square developing for Nintendo again, it was a great feeling, but I believe the loss is always felt more. That's the way humans work. I know, it sucks, doesn't it?
