Conker 64's direction change fucking everything up and forcing them to bite the expense to cover the consequences and change of marketing for BFD's new style, and I guess Star Fox Adventures was the last straw.

Apparently not, which is why Rare barely exists at this point and why most of their legacy members have long since left since the buyout.

Miyamoto never forgave them for making a better Donkey Kong game than he could make, and also being robbed of his true vision for Super Mario World 2, aka Supa Donki.

Both the would be Super Donki and Yoshi Island are shit sequels ti SMW as none maintain the fucking gameplay an are nkt what 3 was to 1, a massive upgrade. Instead some shitty spin off.

Super Donki would have been a great prequel to Donkey Kong and better for the lore than DkC

This shit literally saved Conker though. Otherwise it wouldve been the 4th collectathon that Rare would release for the N64. Yea, the single player mode sucks, but the multiplayer is among the best couch multiplayer of the 5th gen, right up there with PD, GE, Smash Bros and Mario Kart.

i am almost positive, at least at the top of the company, it was jealousy. A total Sega of Japan vs Sega of America type deal. They were not the complete bitches like Nintendo of America was and they were producing some of the biggest titles on the SNES and especially the N64. The fact that they didnt even try and hold onto the properties they co-created with Nintendo when they were sold off, just solidifies in my mind they were glad to drop them at the slightest dip in quality of their releases and completly erase they ever existed as a part of the companies history. Like could you fucking imagine if Nintendo sold off HAL or something? It would never fucking happen, Japs gotta stick together, but fuck those cheeky foreign devil brits.

Conker wasn't the reason why Nintendo decided to give them the boot, it was mainly because of rare not releasing games on time.. https://twitter.com/OoPAvgm/status/1297444116549246977

Donkey Kong isn't even a good fit for the Donkey Kong Country formula. Nobody wants to play as a slow gorilla who dies in one hit in a reflex platformer.

You're actually right, damn.
From an AMA he did:
>REMINDER: I am NOT married to Shigeru Miyamoto's daughter and I have never have been, I don't even think he has a daughter has he?!

That fucking dude in the photo looks very fucking British and alot like Cuthbert though
