RARE goes on

RARE was sold to Microsoft, but that's old news. Rumours came, saying RARE wouldn't develop for Nintendo anymore because of this. However, RARE made an announcement in their scribes yesterday...

From RARE's scribes:
(...)Also, Rare is not totally oblivious to the fact that the ups and downs of the gaming world mean a lot more to some people than others, and it goes without saying that nobody here set out to do anything as self-destructive as intentionally causing bad feeling within the established fanbase. Trust me when I say that none of the decisions made over the last few months were made lightly.
At the end of the day, however, it's not as if Rare has stopped making games entirely. We're still out there, still working as hard as ever. All that's changed is the platform, as it has many times before in the past (something the Timeline was meant to emphasise), and I don't see how you can argue the case for any kind of 'betrayal' when there's still a solid relationship with Nintendo in place - how do you think we intended to manage future GBA development without it?

Seems like there still is a big chance Banjo-Kazooie: Grunty's Revenge will see the light!
