So.... Banjo Threeie?
@WhatAreYouBuyen 8 years ago

Banjo was probably my most played N64 game besides Mario Tennis which was strangely addicting...

I have utmost love and respect for Grant Kirkhope but my god, that man needs to come with subtitles.

I always wondered if Lord Woo Fak Fak was some kind of profanity joke, and now I know why.

Thank you guys SO much for everything. Not just for the brilliant adventures we all had during our childhoods, but for TRULY caring about us, the fans. Not only that, but for this video. You didn't have to do this, and not only did us fans cherish it, I'm pretty sure you all had a blast drudging up old memories. I'm happy you all are still the same crazy guys who truly care about their children of N64 games. It gives me hope for the world.

8:30 Still a Mystery of who voiced Tootie. Only Staff we know that voiced characters in Banjo Kazooie so far were Grant Kirkhope, Chris Sutherland, Chris Seavor and Lee Ray. Much more in Banjo Tooie.

Now that I know in the first game, when Grunty casts the last spell and transforms Banjo into a frog, I want a remake with that in it! Not that you have to replay all the levels, but at least go back with Tooty and in every level fight a new boss and then each boss gives a special Mumbo token. If not bosses then at least a special mission. Like Grunty's spell also affects every world in some way and you have to fix it with Tooty and you'll be rewarded with the token.

I still own the two games I bought back in 1999 on the Nintendo 64 in their lovely boxes, Banjo Kazooie and Banjo Tooie. What true gaming gems. Anyone else play over 500 hours in each game? I sure have, maybe even more.

They should really show more beta footage often. I find those very interesting.
@shadowpersonoftheunknown6245 5 years ago

I still play through Banjo-Kazooie 100% once every other year or so because it's that good and it's music is excellent.
