  • Rare, Ltd. (formerly known as Rareware) is a British Video game development company. It was founded in 1982 by brothers Tim and Chris Stamper as Ashby Computers and Graphics Ltd. (ACG). Publishing as Ultimate Play the Game, they developed games for 8-bit platforms such as the ZX Spectrum, the Commodore 64 and the BBC Micro, before the name was sold to U.S. Gold in 1985. In 1995, Rare entered an exclusive publishing agreement for Nintendo gaming consoles. In 2002, Rare was acquired by Microsoft. The company is notable for having created an unusually high amount of successful games, and for the company's price tag: Microsoft paid US$375 million for the company, a record for a video game developer. On 2 January 2007, it was announced that Tim and Chris Stamper have left Rare to pursue "other opportunities". Neither Microsoft, Rare, nor the Stamper brothers have stated specifically what they intend to move onto post-Rare.

Rare había producido distintos títulos junto con Nintendo, varios de la saga de Donkey Kong los cuales son: * Donkey Kong Country (1994) * Donkey Kong Land (1995) * Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest (1995) * Donkey Kong Land II (1996) * Donkey Kong Country 3 (1996) * Donkey Kong Land III (1997) * Diddy Kong Racing (1997) * Donkey Kong 64 (1999) * Diddy Kong Racing DS (2007) La compañía fue comprada el 2002, por Microsoft por la suma de 375 millones de dolares. Desde este momento la compañía comenzó a producir únicamente para Microsfot, lo que ocasiono la cancelación de múltiples juegos. A pesar de esto, Rare sigue creando juegos para las consolas portátiles de Nintendo, debido a que Microsoft no domina el mercado portátil. Categoría:Empresas
