Banjo Stop 'n Swop secret revealed...

Monday 27-Apr-2009 2:43 PM Video: See Banjo's XBLA secrets in action
4 Comments
Banjo-Kazooie's long lost secrets have been exposed, via a video showing the illusive "Stop 'n Swop" feature that has been re-implemented into Banjo-Tooie for Xbox Live Arcade.

Stop 'n Stop was originally teased and intended for the original N64 Banjo-Tooie, but ultimately canned before release. The feature allows you to move items from the original Banjo-Kazooie into Tooie for special rewards.



"4J Studios have dredged the Banjo team's collective memory and implemented the original plan for Stop 'n' Swop, for the first time on any platform ever and after many long years of waiting," Rare promised in the XBLA game's announcement.

But, as the video reveals, we very much doubt a 360 Gamerpic and Dashboard theme were part of the "original" N64 plan (the other unlocked rewards were already in the original 'Tooie). What's the deal then, Rare?

Banjo-Tooie's out on Xbox Live Arcade this Wednesday, April 29 for 1200 Microsoft points (about £10).

Thanks, RareWitchProject.

A gamer pic, a theme, and...whatever the last thing is supposed to mean...

If that's actually all that's been added, colour me disappointed Sad

is it a premium theme or a s**tty old theme?

Unless it's been planned all along!!!!

They're all masterminds of epic porportions!(sp?)

The egg I found in the original Bk unlocked special parts in Nuts&Bolts - so I guess all three titles will be interactive - which is nice!
