Not really.

Put enough money on the table and someone will bite. Nintendo wants a percentage of money from every copy sold on XBLA. Microsoft wants to pay one flat fee to Nintendo and then keep all the money from the game's sales. They couldn't reach a compromise, so they canceled it.

It doesn't have to be that way. If the consumers (us) show enough interest in the product then someone is going to realize that there's good money to be made here for everyone involved.

I was one of the first 100 signers on that petition, lol. Sure they usually amount to nothing, but I would hope that everyone who is interested in a project like Goldeneye Source enough to post on our boards would at least take 15 seconds to sign that petition. I intend to write some emails, and make some phone calls / written letters if possible as well.

Almost 5000 signatures and rising! Sign away... http://www.petitiononline.com/rare007/petition.html

Agreed. News sites are jumping in now showing support like Xbox360Fanboy - http://www.xbox360fanboy.com/2008/01/13/fanboys-unite-to-bring-goldeneye-007-to-the-xbla/

With this attention, it's bound to get tons of signatures, in fact it's over 8,500! :)

[edit] Microsoft says it's Nintendo's fault not theirs (according to Kotaku's source): http://kotaku.com/344324/goldeneye-xbla-shitcanning-was-nintendos-fault

PS: Over 12,700 Signatures now :)

Money rules the World... .

IMO the best agreement for the Gamers would be:
1. Nintendo doesn't get a single Penny for it, but...
2. M$ must bring the Game also onto the Wii-WareChannel.

So everyone could make it's own money out of it and a much more People could play Goldeneye.

But this Time I think M$ would deny.

So the only Thing we can do is sign the pettition, hope for the best but expecting the worst.

.... oh yea, and going on with this Mod. So we can play Goldeneye no matter how the Big Chiefs at M$ and Nintendo decideing.

MasterChief2829:
That was the alleged deal by the guy who got the screenshot, but that one guy from Nintendo (sorry I posted it earlier, can't remember at the moment, but it's not reggie - he's all for the idea) said no to activision. Activision could allow it without them, but they want to stay on good terms with Nintendo. *shrug*
