But anyway... I think Rare is in much better shape then they were with Nintendo. Rare has more Freedom now, and they are in an environment where they are more respected.

Out of all Nintendo's 2nd parties, in the N64 generation Rare slopped out the most good original content. Not only that... who were the guys sitting there pushing N64's hardware to it's limits?

I think Rare will be just fine. Hell, and Nintendo selling Rare is almost like selling my lock on buying a Nintendo console next generation.

It's funny though, Metrion Prime gets a sequal all fast even though it didn't sell great but just because of it's plublicity... then Perfect Dark who was held down by the expansion pack, doesn't get a sequal because for some odd reason Nintendo didn't think it was popular?

Hell, I used to have parties over my house and lots of guys who didn't own N64s or PD would come over and play the game, and they thought it was great. Plus PD got great scores. I think it was just a mistake on Nintendo's part selling Rare.

PD (with a lil help from Halo) automatically makes my Xbox unsellable
