You may want to re-inforce your hearts before continuing. According to 1UP, an XBLA version of Rare’s classic N64 shooter GoldenEye wasn’t a rumour. It was real. It was a faithful port, with the same graphics, sound, etc. It would even have featured multiplayer over XBLA. However, only two months from completion, Microsoft and Nintendo couldn’t agree on how they were going to split the proceeds, and the project was shit-canned. Game over. For those looking for a glimmer of hope, 1UP reckon the only way to salvage the project is to complain. Loudly.
Lol.. Nintendo fucked it up. How funny.

Well it is a major legal issue since it was a game lisenced for the N64 and it was a previous nintendo game and just having it jump over to the 360 is a bit of an issue here. Casltevania SOTN is different because even though it appeared on the PS1 it was made by 3rd party developer Konami.

Haha yes that new shitty Rare doesn’t get to touch Martin Hollis’s masterpiece. Really if there was a chance of it being ruined I wouldn’t want it on VC or XBLA.
