Rare seeking programmer for DS project

Looks like Rare and Nintendo are back in cahoots, as a recent job posting for a DS programmer on Rare’s site suggests:

”Must be motivated, enthusiastic and skilled in C/C++ to join our dedicated handheld team, recently nominated for a Develop Industry Excellence Award. 3D skills also an advantage in creating high-profile titles for this unique system.”

Could this sort of project bring Rare back to its N64 glory days?

Well...this could mean Rare would start making or remaking games for nintendo. Ahh well, just a thought..

I hope it's true. Yay, Banjo Kazooie remakes for the DS! :D I guess we'll have to wait and see.

I already posted this in the General DS forum.

It is true. Read "Ds discussion", I think, and you will see that they've spent $250 million on a DS development team.

Could be good!

[ShadowMarth]

No no no, $250 million is how much Microsoft payed to buy Rare.

Apparently, Microsoft spent $250 million on a team of DS producers.

Well the way I read it, sounded like that's what they spent on the DS development.

I get it now, having re-read it!

Rare will never go back to its glory days while they are still making crappy games like "Mr. Pants"
