'''{{wp|Rare (company)|Rare Ltd.}}''' (trade-named '''Rareware''' during Nintendo tenure) is a British video game developer based in Twycross, Leicestershire. It was founded in 1985 by Chris and Tim Stamper, as the successor company to {{wp|Ultimate Play the Game}}. Rare formerly worked exclusively for [[Nintendo]] before being bought out by {{wp|Microsoft}}. As a prominent second-party developer for Nintendo, Rare created the successful [[Nintendo Entertainment System]] games ''{{wp|Wizards & Warriors}}'', ''{{wp|Battletoads (video game)|Battletoads}}'', and ''{{wp|R.C. Pro-Am}}''; revived the ''[[Donkey Kong (franchise)|Donkey Kong]]'' property with its critically acclaimed ''[[Donkey Kong Country (series)|Donkey Kong Country]]'' series; and created many other well-known titles such as ''{{wp|GoldenEye 007 (1997 video game)|GoldenEye 007}}'', ''{{wp|Banjo-Kazooie}}'', ''{{wp|Perfect Dark}}'', and ''{{wp|Conker's Bad Fur Day}}''.
'''{{wp|Rare (company)|Rare Ltd.}}''' (also shortened to just '''Rare''' and trade-named '''Rareware''' up until ''{{wp|Banjo-Kazooie: Grunty's Revenge}}'') is a British video game developer based in Twycross, Leicestershire. It was founded in 1985 by [[Stamper brothers|Chris and Tim Stamper]], as the successor company to {{wp|Ultimate Play the Game}}. As a prominent second-party developer for Nintendo, Rare created the successful [[Nintendo Entertainment System]] games ''{{wp|Wizards & Warriors}}'', ''{{wp|Battletoads (video game)|Battletoads}}'', and ''{{wp|R.C. Pro-Am}}''. Rare's only involvement with the [[Super Mario (franchise)|''Super Mario'' franchise]] was creating several ''[[Donkey Kong (franchise)|Donkey Kong]]'' games, beginning with ''[[Donkey Kong Country]]''. Since then, Rare has produced other well-known titles such as ''{{wp|Banjo-Kazooie}}'', ''{{wp|Perfect Dark}}'', and ''{{wp|Sea of Thieves}}''.


In 2002, following the release of ''[[lylatwiki:Star Fox Adventures|Star Fox Adventures]]'' on the [[Nintendo GameCube]] (Rare's only game on the system), Microsoft paid $375 million for a 100% acquisition of Rare. The company then began to produce games for {{wp|Xbox Game Studios|Microsoft Studios}}' {{wp|Xbox (console)|Xbox}} video game console. This change of focus resulted in the cancelation of several games featuring the ''Donkey Kong'' brand: ''[[Diddy Kong Pilot]]'', ''[[Donkey Kong Coconut Crackers]]'', and unofficially, ''[[Donkey Kong Racing]]''. Under the terms of the merger, Nintendo retained the rights to all the ''Donkey Kong'' characters, while Rare maintained the rights to its own intellectual properties such as ''Banjo-Kazooie'' and ''Conker''.
In 2002, following the original North American release of ''[[lylatwiki:Star Fox Adventures|Star Fox Adventures]]'' on the [[Nintendo GameCube]], Microsoft completed its acquisition of Rare, affecting the status of several games of the ''Super Mario'' franchise, including ''[[Donkey Kong Racing]]'', ''[[Donkey Kong Coconut Crackers]]'', and ''[[Diddy Kong Pilot (2001)|Diddy Kong Pilot]]''. Under the terms of the merger, Nintendo retained the rights to all the ''Donkey Kong'' characters along with [[Krunch]], while Rare maintained the rights to its own intellectual properties such as [[Banjo]] and [[Conker]], both of whom appeared in ''[[Diddy Kong Racing]]''. Consequently, [[Dixie Kong]]'s hat no longer bore the Rare logo. For a while, Rare developed games for Nintendo's handheld systems, since Microsoft has not entered the dedicated handheld console market. Two of the games, ''{{wp|Banjo-Pilot}}'' and ''{{wp|It's Mr. Pants}}'', were redeveloped from ''Diddy Kong Pilot'' and ''Donkey Kong Coconut Crackers'', respectively. After the merger, there was a hard stop to using Nintendo and Rare characters in the same works of media, with even ''[[Diddy Kong Racing DS]]'' being unable to use Banjo or Conker in the character roster. ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'' would include one of Rare's properties, Banjo and Kazooie, as playable characters.


Rare, however, has continued to develop games for Nintendo's handheld systems, since Microsoft has not entered the handheld console market. Such games included enhanced remakes of the three [[Super Nintendo Entertainment System|SNES]] ''Donkey Kong Country'' games for the [[Game Boy Advance]] and ''[[Diddy Kong Racing DS]]'', as well as redeveloping their canceled ''Diddy Kong Pilot'' and ''Donkey Kong Coconut Crackers'' games into ''{{wp|Banjo-Pilot}}'' and ''{{wp|It's Mr. Pants}}'', respectively.
Nintendo itself would later publish [[reissue|remake]]s of a few ''Donkey Kong'' titles made by Rare, including the original [[Donkey Kong Country (series)|''Donkey Kong Country'' trilogy]] for the [[Game Boy Advance]], as well as ''Diddy Kong Racing DS''. While the first ''Donkey Kong Country'' was made available on the [[Virtual Console]] within a few weeks of the [[Wii]] being released, and ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]'' being rolled out there in 2007, all three games were delisted on November 25, 2012,{{ref needed}} and were gradually re-listed from 2014 to 2015,{{ref needed}} this time on both the Wii and [[Wii U]], and all releases of the game have remained listed since then to the extent the consoles' online game stores have remained online. The Rare-developed game ''[[Jetpac]]'' remained intact in the ''[[Donkey Kong 64]]'' port for the Wii U Virtual Console.

Rare Ltd. (also shortened to just Rare and trade-named Rareware up until Banjo-Kazooie: Grunty's Revenge) is a British video game developer based in Twycross, Leicestershire. It was founded in 1985 by Chris and Tim Stamper, as the successor company to Ultimate Play the Game. As a prominent second-party developer for Nintendo, Rare created the successful Nintendo Entertainment System games Wizards & Warriors, Battletoads, and R.C. Pro-Am. Rare's only involvement with the Super Mario franchise was creating several Donkey Kong games, beginning with Donkey Kong Country. Since then, Rare has produced other well-known titles such as Banjo-Kazooie, Perfect Dark, and Sea of Thieves.

In 2002, following the original North American release of Star Fox Adventures on the Nintendo GameCube, Microsoft completed its acquisition of Rare, affecting the status of several games of the Super Mario franchise, including Donkey Kong Racing, Donkey Kong Coconut Crackers, and Diddy Kong Pilot. Under the terms of the merger, Nintendo retained the rights to all the Donkey Kong characters along with Krunch, while Rare maintained the rights to its own intellectual properties such as Banjo and Conker, both of whom appeared in Diddy Kong Racing. Consequently, Dixie Kong's hat no longer bore the Rare logo. For a while, Rare developed games for Nintendo's handheld systems, since Microsoft has not entered the dedicated handheld console market. Two of the games, Banjo-Pilot and It's Mr. Pants, were redeveloped from Diddy Kong Pilot and Donkey Kong Coconut Crackers, respectively. After the merger, there was a hard stop to using Nintendo and Rare characters in the same works of media, with even Diddy Kong Racing DS being unable to use Banjo or Conker in the character roster. Super Smash Bros. Ultimate would include one of Rare's properties, Banjo and Kazooie, as playable characters.

Nintendo itself would later publish remakes of a few Donkey Kong titles made by Rare, including the original Donkey Kong Country trilogy for the Game Boy Advance, as well as Diddy Kong Racing DS. While the first Donkey Kong Country was made available on the Virtual Console within a few weeks of the Wii being released, and Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest and Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble! being rolled out there in 2007, all three games were delisted on November 25, 2012,[citation needed] and were gradually re-listed from 2014 to 2015,[citation needed] this time on both the Wii and Wii U, and all releases of the game have remained listed since then to the extent the consoles' online game stores have remained online. The Rare-developed game Jetpac remained intact in the Donkey Kong 64 port for the Wii U Virtual Console.
