RUMOR - Banjo-Kazooie and Donkey Kong Country 4 were proposed by RARE for DS

Many would say that RARE is a former shell of itself, both in staff and game content. They used to be known for working magic on their own brands as well as Nintendo characters. While we may have not seen much in the way of great content from them recently, it sounds like there might have been a chance for them to shine once again on DS.

Rumor has it that RARE proposed both a new Banjo-Kazooie game and Donkey Kong Country 4 for the DS. Nintendo decided to pass on these in order to have RARE work on Diddy Kong Racing DS. As you can tell, those other ideas ended up being dead in the water.

RARE can still work on the 3DS if Microsoft gives them the go-ahead. Maybe if we keep all fingers and toes crossed tightly, one of those forgotten projects could happen. Thanks to ShadowsSaver for the heads up.
