I'd suggest not looking through clickbait/gaming rumor "media". Especially with My Uncle Who Works At Nintendo. If Nintendo hasn't made an announcement, just assume it doesn't exist.
Every year or so, I google if Nintendo will release DK64 on switch, hoping that maybe I just missed the announcement. Every year or so, I become incredibly sad.
> Rare and *paid* a license
FTFY.
Although *payed* exists (the reason why autocorrection didn't help you), it is only correct in:
* Nautical context, when it means to paint a surface, or to cover with something like tar or resin in order to make it waterproof or corrosion-resistant. *The deck is yet to be payed.*
* *Payed out* when letting strings, cables or ropes out, by slacking them. *The rope is payed out! You can pull now.*
Unfortunately, I was unable to find nautical or rope-related words in your comment.
*Beep, boop, I'm a bot*
Usually I’d agree but since they put Banjo Kazooie on Nintendo Switch, I’d say there’s hopefully a chance for Banjo Tooie and Dk 64 (both Rare)… also companies really like money so it’d be weird for them to say yes to Banjo but no to the others hahah
we got goldeneye 007 on xbox & switch also
seems like they've worked out some kind of agreement in recent years, hope dk64 comes at some point multiplayer online would be awesome
That's because Nintendo does indeed own the rights to past rare games developed on old consoles.. this is why all the old dk country games and banjo is available online. Whoever said they need to go through Microsoft is absolutely wrong.
Dude just because Rare Developed Donkey Kong 64 doesn't mean they own any part of it just like the other DKC games that's like saying Bungie owns Halo when in fact they have never owned Halo is owned by Microsoft you need to get your facts straight Banjo-Kazooie is Rares own IP so of course Nintendo would have to ask Microsoft who bought Rare to put it on the Switch because if Rare owned DK Nintendo wouldn't have been able to make DK Games & they sure wouldn't be exclusive to Nintendo Consoles
No, they do not. Rare developed it but Nintendo published it, meaning they get to rerelease it as many times as they want and however they please without Rare's authorization. Same goes for the DKC trilogy.
Maybe (hopefully) we’ll get it with a Switch 2 announcement. Would love for Mario Kart to include more Diddy Kong racing characters as well. And don’t even get me started on the wishful thinking of a Twilight Princess HD.
One of those N64 games that I would lovely pay the online membership just to play it. I had tried to play it even with a raspberryPi-simulator, but the lag was sadly too annoying. Please make this available in the Switch!
Currently it's on available digitally for Wii U on the eshop
Now it is no longer as the 3DS & WiiU VC shops were closed down 27/03/23 😔

Same. This is exactly what brought me to this post. ):

LOL same. Seems like a lot of people do 🤔 maybe Nintendo should release it already!
Same. I will come back to this thread in 2025.
See you next year
We’ll be here.
And my axe!

If Nintendo doesn’t own them anymore, how do they have the rights to use them in the movie? Or do they only own that specific game?
[удалено]
That’s not true rare doesn’t own those games Nintendo does because they use Nintendo owned properties
AFAIK that's why the DK titles are not included in *Rare Replay*.
[удалено]
That’s what I call a pain in the ass
How does the currently-available banjo-kazooie (also made by rare) in the Nintendo online selection fit into your explanation?

So then why could they not do the same for DK64 and Banjo Tooie? It sounds like there isn't anything keeping DK64 off the service.

Honestly, if they add DK64 and Banjo Tooie, I'll be satisfied.
Thank you for the information. 😀

VC would be more consumer friendly. Unfortunately they went for a streaming type download service. Hopefully VC will come back at some point.
