^When the f*** did Microsoft get the rights the Donkey Kong?

MC Luigi · 10-17-2006, 08:15 PM

Donkey Kong is part of Rare.

No, he's part of Nintendo, not Rare.

Rare just made the DK games.

Nintendo owns the Kongs. Rare merely developed games about the Kongs. Rare could, conceivably, make more Donkey Kong games, but it wouldn't be on the XBox360--think GBA/DS. Microsoft doesn't stop Rare from developing GBA/DS titles, because the GBA/DS aren't in direct competition with any of Microsoft's products. (Not yet, anyhow.)

Long story short: Donkey Kong and the Rare-created DK characters are currently full property of Nintendo.

WOW!!! A whole new Banjo?!!! Wish I had a 360, but I'm more of a Nintendo loyalist. But still... BANJO!!!!!!!!!!!!

Don't bump old topics. This one, even kinda recent, would have warranted a new topic.

But anyway, I can't wait for Banjo-360. Yay.

***Ynot Shane*** · 02-14-2007, 09:32 PM

Considering it's on page one, I don't see a problem with bumping this.

Demonicus Prime · 02-15-2007, 04:54 PM

But with the activity of the Xbox forum?

Eh, I see your point. Nevermind.

Banjo Kazooie: Grunty's Revenge was actually pretty good for being on the GBA. You people should be ashamed of letting another quality game slip into obscurity. **Points finger** SHAME.

***Booyakasha*** · 02-15-2007, 07:48 PM

Yeah, shame on me for not racing out and buying some poxy handheld platformer because I was playing 'Halo' and 'Disgaea'. Don't know what I was thinking of.

I wish Rare would come back to Nintendo. -CSM
