Rare dug up the old mailbag this past week and answered some reader questions. One of them asked if any new Rare VC titles were in the pipeline. The response Rare gave was rather interesting.

As for VC, it’s ultimately Nintendo’s decision what gets released. Beyond the DKC games we don’t have anything in the pipeline at the moment, but that doesn’t mean it won’t happen in future. OMG CORPERATE ANSER#!1

From the sound of it Nintendo has full rights to release Rare’s N64 backcatalog on the Wii VC. That means we could possibly see the likes of Banjo-Kazooie and Blast Corps, as well as many other Rare classics in the near future.
