Statement: Lawyers, meatbags. Nintendo, MGM and Microsoft could not agree on a licence, so its Xbox remaster was shot in development. It came back in 2023 on two consoles, and neither of them is a PC.

Rare's 1997 Nintendo 64 shooter based on the film GoldenEye: Bond stops the Janus syndicate from firing the GoldenEye satellite, from the Byelomorye Dam to a radio telescope in the Cuban jungle. It sold more than eight million copies and showed that first-person shooters could work on a home console.
