I am not laughing at Rare, Rare were my third favourite company and my first favourite company kicked 'em out to you guys. Oh no I'm laughing at the fact that Microsoft expect Rare to release 5 games in 2 years....
Trust me it won't happen.

Mixed, I'd say 10 out of 10's everywhere are mixed I suppose, but that's not true is it.

Maverick you've turned this into exactly the opposite of what I intended it to be.
Let me make this clear.
*I DID NOT write that list as a list of GC exclusives (although being Nintendo games they obviously are)
*I only mentioned them to show just how many games Nintendo are making in such a short space of time, which is why they're negleting the GBA for a while.
*I forgot to add Wario World and F-Zero.
Also you've replied to garbe's comments, saying pretty much the exact same thing as I did, whats the point?
And Dringo, if DMA don't make a decent 'new generation' Lemmings game, or another Body Harvest game (minus bugs and empty landscapes) soon then they're not worth anything in my book.
And finally, this is *not* a "We've got the most/best exclusives/games with monkeys on our console" war, okay?

Yeah, and should be best platformer of the year if magazines are anything to go by.

Indeed it does.

Fair enough, but a great game nonetheless.

Well, that's your opinion, but the GameCube version's much improved and a top title.

Mixed reviews? Everyone says it's great...

So the Final Fantasy's are just remakes and unoriginal? Ocarina Of Time and Majora's Mask were 'just remakes'? Each one is new, innovative, original and an amazing game.

What's so funny? Mario spin offs are some of if not THE best sports and party sims out there.

Yep, all great, but Eternal Darkness is VERY different to RE.

Whitestripes has named but a few games off the top of his head. I could easily name longer.

All of those developers put together might come close to mastering what Nintendo can easily achieve, but on their own, Nintendo can beat them with a wave of the hand. Sure, the name plays a major part, but with good reason. Nintendo gained their reputation for producing quality gaming and caring for their customers, and continue to do so.

So the Final Fantasy's are just remakes and unoriginal? Ocarina Of Time and Majora's Mask were 'just remakes'? Each one is new, innovative, original and an amazing game.

It's a joint Nintendo/Rare project actually, and I quote from NOM's preview:
"This is Rare's first GameCube offering, intriguingly made in partnership with Nintendo of Japan. So what do the two of the biggest names in games working together mean for a cherished Nintendo character?"

Fair enough, Microsoft Games Studios - why can't I abbreviate? And publishing doesn't count, as Nintendo have published every single game on the GameCube and GBA. So MGS have made half of Blinx, I doubt they came up with most of the ideas, after looking at their previous games.

DMA are indeed a Rockstar first party... but DMA still make it and not Rockstar. Just cause Metroid is being made by Retro Studio's a Nintendo first party doesnt mean it isnt made by retro studios.
DMA are damn good, they make real quality games.

Strafex, I beleive DMA design do not exsist anymore, they either merged with someone else to form Rockstar, or Rockstar bought them out completely.
Either way, that would mean Rockstar do develop games as well. Although I could be wrong.

Anyway Garbe, although Luigi's Mansion is short compared to Nintendo's other games, it's still atleast TWICE as long as games like Max Payne...

Erm no, no one makes better games than Nintendo or their second parties. Yep they may make the second best games but look at the best games in the world. the Super Mario's and the Zelda's always grab those headlines. Yep everyone rips off Nintendo cause they're the best. really never heared anyone deny it before, childish they say and too long to make a game maybe but not the best? pish!
Camelot, HAL, NTSC, PARAM, Silicon Knights, Retro Studio's, Game Developer studio (Squaresoft) Crawfish etc... all exclusive to Nintendo.
