Don't listen to these haters, I think the reviews were spot-on.
I've been trying to tell everyone that Hunters is basically Quake 3 on a handheld, and as a long-time Quaker I really love what Hunters has to offer.
Finally, with the power of/. people can appreciate this game for what it is.
It doesn't matter who owns Rare. The games that were published by Nintendo are (partly) retained by Nintendo. That includes the games I listed above - which for the most part are Rare's most popular games.
Some games, such as Conker and Jet Force Gemini, were published by Rare. This is why M$ gets full rights to these games.
The flip side is that Nintendo can't release those Rare games either. They will only exist "as-is" unless more negotiations take place. I doubt any of the parties will bend on this.
Any game that was developed by Rare + Published by Nintendo will almost certainly not be available in ANY back catalog at all. This includes Goldeneye, Killer Instinct, Blast Corps... perhaps Banjo(?) as well.
And anyone who mentions "Starfox" or "Donkry Kong" being a Rare property deserves a cockpunch.

People actually use the stylus and thumbstrap? I use my pointer finger. No fuss, no muss.

And the best games on PSP are Nintendo games. That's comedy gold.
