Rare universes
Due to the rather large number of original Rare IPs that Nintendo had published/distributed, as well as the very strong partnership the two companies had in the past, I felt it was right to give Rare its very own section rather than lump their IPs in with the other third-party universes.
As with the above IPs, this will only list Rare games that had atleast one installment published/distributed by Nintendo. Sorry Battletoads fans.
