Banjo-Kazooie might not come to Virtual Console...

[The Chameleon]

I was furious when I heard that Microsoft bought Rare. That means
no more Donkey Kong Countries, Banjo-Kazooies or any other Rare
title for Nintendo consoles.

I remember playing Banjo-Kazooie back when I was younger. But now
that Microsft owns Rare(which of course owns BK), we'll never see it on
the VC.

I Knew this like 2 weeks ago. But yeah Banjo Kazooie and Tooie will be on the Live Arcade for 800 points (A Bargain compared to N64 VC Games) But still having it for the VC Would Be Awesome.

Doesn't bother me, I have the cartridge for the N64. Unless of course XBOX Live version has Stop and Swoop in it.

IT kinda irritates me...

Why? I see no problem with it. Microsoft owns the rights of Rare now so they should be allowed to put games Rare made onto the Arcade. Even if those games were once on Nintendo's systems.

I didn't know it was on 360 arcade!!! I'll be getting this soon maybe... Will they release Tooie? Will they release more RARE games like Donkey Kong 64? Will these games maybe have added online capabilities? will I evar stop asking questions?

Will you plees accept my soup?

Yep, Tooie is coming out early next year. Not sure about other Rare games...

I've never been a huge fan of Banjo Kazooie, it's just not that interesting. The two N64 ones were great, everything after that was bull crap.

Except Nuts & Bolts, I agree -- the two GBA games were really meh. But the N64 ones are classics.

You guys could always get the homebrew channel and get a rom of the 2 banjos.

Well, I hope this didn't actually surprise anyone.

Of course it was going to be an Xbox Live exclusive.

Microsoft bought Rare. They're not going to let Nintendo reap in money for games that Microsoft now owns the rights to.
