So is donkey Kong

That's like saying Zelda Oracle of Ages/Seasons are owned by Capcom. Rare developed DK64 FOR Nintendo, not for Rareware.

There's a LOT of licensing involved with that one. It's not the same as simply publishing a Nintendo-owned game.

Fair enough, that makes sense.

I was referring to the "surprise factor." If Goldeneye made it to a N64 Classic, it would blow people's minds as much as the announcement for Star Fox 2 did.

Maybe Nintendo will surprise us with an portable console.
A GB/GBC remake with a backlit screen, Li-Ion battery and thinner casing wouldn't be bad at all. Imagine playing Tetris on this while commuting :)

Well it would indeed be a huge surprise, but considering the logistics and potential cost of just acquiring the Bond license alone, it's extremely hard to imagine it happening. This versus Star Fox 2, which was simply locked up in a vault and is 100% owned by Nintendo.

I never even considered this as a possibility! That would be wicked as hell!
