I.....GWAAAHT?!! Whoah, Whoah, hold on a sec. First Goldeneye 007 is being re-made by a different company. Okay, I can deal with it cause I expected it. BUT THIS?! One of my favorite video game series being developed NOT by Rare?!

I'm sorry but I'm simply not gonna let another company ruin the reputation of a great side-scrolling series with incredible music. I'll have to sabotage their studio somehow. Maybe with walnuts, peanuts, pineapple smells...grape, oranges, melons, and coconut shells. AW YEAH!

  Your complaint isn't entirely valid. Yes it would be nice if Rare was making the game, but you must realize this is no longer possible at all. Microsoft bought Rare. Therefore Rare can no longer make any games for Nintendo.
