Looks like this news came straight from Nintendo.

"We sold our position back to Rare and then they sold the entire company to Microsoft," said George Harrison, senior vice president of marketing and corporate communications for Nintendo of America.

News of this started popping up Friday evening, and now it looks like its going to be official! Some of the licenses that Rare gets to keep include: Perfect Dark, Conker, and Banjo-Kazooie. Perfect Dark sold over 1 million copies for the N64. Can we say Perfect Dark for Xbox?
