They stupid

Several key people left, so they knew the company wasn't worth as much. Microsoft did not know how much damage those people leaving would cause, so they bought a dud. Still haven't earned back the money from buying it.

one emploi got caut taking a shit on the desk of anothe rworker desk

they hated non-japanese developers.

either that or conker's bad fur day causing autism due to their family friendly mandate so it made them seethe. (or star fox adventures was so bad that they dumped them on the curb, take your pick)

they'd get more money by making things people actually want rather then sea of thieves content over and over.

also take a page from sakurai's book and make banjo actually look like banjo.

holy shit i just realized what the background texture in the rare logo is

Companies at the end of the day are businesses and console war brand loyalty kiddies get btfo every time not learning this.

next thread.

What is it?

all the talanted people left before nintendo sold them

All I ever wanted was another Diddy Kong racing game. Donkey Kong racing never ever now ;_;

Coz Rare were shit and completely out of ideas and their talent had left to join other studios.

Unironically, Japanese pride and racism-lite at the top of the company (and probably a bit below as well).

Nintendo doesn't like spending money on second party devs. That's why they just did it for the first time in forever after a shitton of investor pressure to go out and buy Capcom or somebody, because they wanted to do that even less.

I expect their thinking was that Microsoft wasn't getting the important IPs and therefore there was no reason to spend tens of millions on what amounted to talent retention. If they wanted somebody to make games for them, they could just hire them directly (which is more or less how Retro came to be)

If they tried to do a sequel nowadays they'd probably fuck it up somehow like filling it with MTX or something.

>called rareware
>their 'ware could be found everywhere
doesn't make sense

this is the real reason. If rare happened to be all japanese devs nintendo would've bought them out instead of letting them go

Rare let too many important members go first and Nintendo probably didn't care for more western IP's too much.

the quality of their games was rare to find

They were half the reason to like Nintendo in the 90's and few can come close to imitating their nuance and soul.

Because the Rare Microsoft bought was not the same Rare that made all those classics.

>they hated non-japanese developers.
Hence why they worked with british developers on Star Fox? Or why they worked with foreign tech or literally bought a foreign studio?

Let's not lie to ourselves, Nintendo is anything but prejudiced, it has more to do with the output and lack of interest in owning Rare that was the key factor
