I think Nintendo would do much better releasing Twilight Princess in November. It would generate good sales because of the Christmas season

Or maybe the game just isn't finished yet? Ever think about that?

You don't say.

TML, several of the games on your list came out before '98--if memory serves, 'KI Gold' was practically a launch title for the N64, and 'Blast Corps' and 'Goldeneye' came out in '97, I know for a fact (I got 'em both for Chrimbo that year). Your main point stands, of course--this hasn't been a great generation for Rare. Hell, I like both their XBox games, and even I'd admit they aren't as good as some of Rare's earlier efforts.

^ Point.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rare
(I can't link properly to the article in UBB code, but just click the last link on the disambiguation page.)

I had actually started going off just by system, and then I decided to go by year and didn't correct myself.

Nintendo actually published the DKC remakes for GBA, not THQ.

^ Who the hell thought that? Nintendo would never let someone else publish one of their franchises on their own system.
