I personally wasted a lot of hours with my friends playing this game and having the time of my life, so naturally when the rumors started floating that it would be on the Live Arcade, I was hoping they would turn out true. They were, but now they're not.
For those not interested in reading the article, it seems that Nintendo and Microsoft couldn't agree on royalties for the game, so the project has been officially canned, and the only way we'll see it on Live now is if we tell Nintendo and Microsoft how badly we want it. Anyone else as pissed as I am about this?

There's a picture in my senior year yearbook of me playing Goldeneye 007 so naturally I am pissed.

He lists several Microsoft and Nintendo addresses that you can email asking for it to be released. Goldeneye 007 for Xbox 360 Petition
This also has around 4000 signatures as of writing this.
The only way to get this is to show both Microsoft and Nintendo that we want this and crying about it won't do anything.

Seriously, I don't get it. No matter how they split the money each of them will still make an assload off of this game. And now it would be better than the $0 they're each getting out of it. And I'd bet most people that signed this would easily pay more than XBLA games usually cost to play this game online.

They are going to do this once they realize how much money they can make.
