Nintendo holding up GoldenEye on Xbox LIVE Arcade. - 10-06-08

You may have heard the original rumours, but it seems that one of the most historic first-person shooters to ever grace the Nintendo 64 has indeed been remade for the Xbox LIVE Arcade. However porting this game to the Xbox 360 required the input of four key game companies; Rare, Microsoft,...

Take them away, and all I can think of are Mario games as well as Smash Bros. It's no mistake that Nintendo really dropped the ball during the Gamecube generation.

I bet they are really regretting it.

Eh, I don't have a 360, so I could care less if it comes to Xbox Live Arcade.

But at least make it a Wiiware game or put the original on the Virtual Console! I never got to play it! :)

Man this sucks.
First Banjo and Banjo-Tooie, and now Goldeneye.
This just isn't fair.
These are Nintendo's games, not Xbox's.
These don't deserve to be on Xbox Arcade, but on Wii Virtual Console.
