Rare released games under the name Rareware between 1994 and 2002. They were a game development company most well-known for Donkey Kong Country, Killer Instinct, Banjo-Kazooie, and GoldenEye 007, a revolutionary console shooter. After their parent company lost the James Bond license they quickly followed up this success with Perfect Dark, a spiritual sequel set in their own sci-fi world.
Just after 1993, Nintendo invested in a fiscal partnership with Rareware. In September 2002, the Stamper brothers sold their majority share of the company to Microsoft, and it was renamed as Rare. Because of this association they lost the rights to produce Nintendo games such as Donkey Kong franchise.
