Description


Banjo-Kazooie by Rare Ltd., Nintendo (formerly) & Microsoft (currently)

First Appearance: Diddy Kong Racing (Nintendo 64 1997)


Voice: Chris Sutherland


A bear who loves to live the easy life and his bird partner who occupies his backpack. Banjo is laid-back, and loves to eat and sit around, while Kazooie is obnoxious and never misses an opportunity to tease somebody. When the wicked rhyming hag of a witch, Gruntilda kidnaps Banjo's sister, Tooty, Banjo and Kazooie scale her tower, learning several techniques in order to topple the cad. They are successful, but two years later, Grunty returns for revenge, only to be beaten again. Banjo and Kazooie work well, both together and alone. After an 8 year repression, Banjo returns to action, this time to construct vehicles for the adventure rather than scale landscapes (okay, there's still a bit of that). Mumbo built one such vehicle for his appearance in Sonic & Sega All Stars Racing (the Xbox 360 version).

Vehicle: Bolt Bucket

All-Star Move: Jiggy Rain


FIGHTER 73

Super Smash Bros. Special Moves (Guess)

-----------------------------------------------------

Standard: Egg Firing

Side: Wonderwing

Up: Shock Spring Jump

Down: Rear Egg


Final Smash: Mighty Jinjonator

And only just got their tagline's joke. "Banjo and Kazooie are Raring to go".

I beaten both games, wasn't hard, but definetly challenging. I curse Microsoft forever for killing this great franchise, along with Conker.

Being someone who barely played any of the BK games, I was happy as hell to see those two in Smash! I hope to see their games make it to the Switch.

Boy, was Banjo Kazooie a thing of my childhood!
It was among my favourite N64 games.
I particularly liked how Banjo and Kazooie's personalities were completely different to each other... XD

I loved that game too. An absolute Rare Classic.

Well, opposites attract, as it's said.

the bird and bear duo who proved that there games are better mario 64 (my oppinion by the way)

nice to see someone remebers them

I'm sure plenty of people remember them. Especially in Jolly old England, because Rare is a European developer.

The mechanics of Banjo were inspired by Mario 64. If I were to choose a Top 10 best N64 games list, I'd select:

Super Mario 64
Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time
Donkey Kong 64
Pokemon Stadium
Banjo Kazooie
Pokemon Puzzle League
WWF No Mercy (on my bros' behalf)
Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask
Pokemon Stadium 2
Banjo-Tooie

But, I think it'd be better if I covered that ground with my brothers altogether. We've lived with game systems like Super Nintendo, N64, and Sega Genesis for a long time, and there's a lot we know about it.

what creeps me out about the game is that all the items you collect can talk and have eyes (even feathes!)

It's taken to the next level in Conker. Objects with faces and can talk? WTF

Okay. I gotta draw it at least one more time, though. It still doesn't quite look right.
