Reminicing Mondays: Banjo-Kazooie

GameMasterGuy · #1 05-09-2011, 08:17 PM

Every Monday, I'll be posting a thread about an old Rareware/ UPTG game. This week, it's Banjo-Kazooie!
Banjo-Kazooie is a 1998 platformer for the Nintendo 64, later re-released with enhanced visuals for the XBox LIVE Arcade. The game features 100 well-hidden Jiggies to collect, nine levels bursting at the seams with creativity, a massive hub world with awesome music, and one of gaming's most interesting mysteries: Stop N Swop.

What is this "Banjo Kazoo" that you speak of?

GameMasterGuy · #3 05-11-2011, 12:48 AM

Don't see that anywhere... neither does spall chack...

Wow, talk about not understanding a joke. Banjo is an instrument, so is the kazoo. So someone who has never heard of this game would probably think that the name is Banjo Kazoo if they just read it quickly. And the "What is this" is supposed to mean that I don't know what game it is, [sarcasm]as clearly this game is completely unknown and nobody on this website could possibly have heard of it.
[/sarcasm]
And THAT is the joke.

Wow, and here I thought jokes were meant to be funny. Silly me.

Maybe these would work better as a blog though GMG?

I remember when I was a 5 year old boy on my 64, playing banjo kazooie, trying for the 100th time to get to the next world but I had no clue about kazooies legs xD best childhood ever

The joke was a bad joke, I only posted it to show how silly it was to post a topic explaining what Banjo-Kazooie is in a forum that focuses on mainly Banjo-Kazooie, it wasn't meant to be funny. Silly you Skill.

Stop N Swop in Banjo-Kazooie was just a tease for upcoming feature. The fully working SNS is in Banjo-Tooie where we can collect secret items and use them.

I'd say the fully working and disappointing SNS is in and on the Xbox and or XBLA.

It still a nice feature. There are some unanswered questions but i'm glad that now nobody cares about it

Such as what the original prizes were, there was no such thing as a gamerpic back then.
