Did anybody hear about this? I was surprised to hear about it. I didn't find out about it until now because I was camping for a week. Banjo-Tooie is supposed to be on it sometime as well. Stop 'N' Swop will be implemented and you can unlock stuff for Nuts & Bolts in BK.

Yeah, we were talking about this in the Nuts & Bolts thread.

Whatever. It seemed to be for Nuts & Bolts and this is for BK. Everything from the original is still there including the Nintendo logos apparently.

I doubt it Yubel.

On IGN they even confirmed the game would receive a visual upgrade (check the other thread for the source), and if they're going out of their way to change the graphics, they'd probably use that time to get rid of anything Nintendo related.

Well, I saw it on Mundorare about the Nintendo stuff.

o.O thats, a smart move, they are trying to make XBLA as the Virtual Console for Wii.

There's also supposed to be achievements I think. I think it will be cool though seeing it on it but it would be cool to see it on the VC as well but apparently Rare is still somewhat "tight" with Nintendo still so there is still a possibility.

This doesn't excite me. I still own both N64 Banjo games so it'd be a waste of money...also I don't have online on my XBOX.

I have both games as well but there will be more to these versions and with a functioning Stop 'N' Swop, I'm sure many BK fans will be pleased to see how it will work.

Doesn't Nintendo have a say in this too? I mean, they published both games.

Apparently not. Maybe Nintendo will one day buy Rare back?

I doubt it. Rare wants Banjo to be the new 360 mascot.

I can understand if they want Banjo and Kazooie to be the 360 "platformer mascot" the same way Mario is for Wii and Ratchet & Clank are for PS3. But still, I think Master Chief will always be the 360 mascot :P.

And yeah, even though I've played through the original Banjo-Kazooie dozens of times, I'm still looking forward to playing through all of it again :P.

Master Chief was the mascot for the Xbox, that I'm aware of. He can be a mascot for the more mature games on the 360 but Banjo would be it for the younger audiences or something like that. Rare wants Banjo to be Microsoft's main mascot like how Mario is the main mascot for Nintendo.

I'm hoping Stop 'N' Swop will be good and I'm also wondering if it will be explained about in Banjoland or if Rare is going to talk about it on b-k.com.

In my honest opinion, Banjo and/or Kazooie will never be the mascot for Xbox, why? Because everyone is on Master Chief's nuts and all the little Halo fanboys would cry if they were to become the mascot.
