Has anyone even heard of this? Is is the N64 game? I thought if anyone would try and port this game it would be Nintendo because it came out on a Nintendo system, and they have the Virtual Console.

I've never even heard this rumor before. Seems kind of stupid to me because MS should know that Nintendo would obviously say no.

Anyone have more info?

That probably doesn't mean squat that it was on N64. So was Conker, that ended up on the Xbox. Both were made by Rare. I see no reason why this couldn't end up on the 360 other than maybe the whole Bond license thing. Having said that, I would much prefer it on the Wii with the support of the Wiimote or classic controller and online support.

It would actually make more sense for Goldeneye to be released on the XBLA because Microsoft owns Rare (or something along those lines). I dont think we will ever seen any Rare games (besides the Donkey Kong games) on the VC because of that reason.

I never even heard that Goldeneye was coming out on XBLA anyways, so this is all news to me.

If it was put on the Wii I doubt it would have any on-line support. It would be just like all the other $10 N64 games. If for some chance it did it would require friend codes probably.

the big problem with 007 is that rare made it, nintendo paid for the bond license when they owned 20-40% or rare , activision now owns the bond license, ms now owns majority of rare, and sony owns 20% of mgm which owns bond

Call of Duty 4 is the modern day Goldeneye anyway.

I don't know. I was playing Goldeneye the last night and it was still as fun as ever.

But anyway. I don't see how Nintendo doesn't have the majority of this game, or at least more then Microsoft. Nintendo payed to make this game, they once had the bond license, during that they made this game. So even though they don't own the company who originally made it anymore, or the bond license, how do they not have precedence over something that was released at a time when they had complete control over everything about it? Plus it came out on N64!

Pure speculation.

Wonder how much it will cost? I doubt it will be more then $10? If that is the case its a much better deal then a N64 title on the Wii.

Everytime you post your damn "anti-nintendo" post I just want to punch you in the face for your ignorance.
This game would be better put on wii-ware with motion-controlled goodness.

You've got some serious issues.

Banjo-Kazooie? That would be amazing. For some reason I was thinking it was up on Wii's VC, and I was prepared to buy a Wii just for that (and the other VC games as well, but I was thinking there were more N64 titles available).

I'd buy Goldeneye as well. Sure there's better shooters out now, but I found the single player experience to be quite awesome, and of course there's the huge nostalgia factor as well.

Your probably right it would be better on Wii-ware with motion controlled controls. Do you think Nintendo would actually do that, or do you think it would be just another N64 title using the gamecube/Classic controller? How many games have been made into Wii-ware using the controller?

Zero, which pretty much destroys his entire argument. From what I've read, if it goes to XBLA, it will have updated graphics. If it goes to Wii, however, it will have absolutely nothing added to it. So honestly, I'd rather it go to Xbox.

I'm sure they didn't use the same engine to recreate the game. So it probably won't even play the same anyway. If it doesn't have the same feel, its not worth the $. Graphics mean nothing if it plays like crap.

Looks fake. They would never use such low-quality human models in a Live Arcade game.

I heard it was more of a port with added features like online multiplayer. But the base of the game remained the same, so no updated graphics, or subtle ones at the most.
