Banjo-Kazooie

The Xbox 360 remaster of Banjo-Tooie has visual and performance improvements over the Nintendo 64 version. In this version, the player doesn't loose the notes after getting out of a stage, which is a major difference over the original, since it doesn't require the player to get everything again after leaving or dying. It also has a reimplementation of the Stop 'n' Swop feature, using the save data from the Banjo-Kazooie remaster to unlock new content.

Banjo & Kazooie join the battle! The missing piece of the puzzle has been found, as Banjo & Kazooie are joining the battle as a playable fighter! With Banjo’s bare hands to bruise rivals up close and Kazooie’s egg-cellent shooting skills, your rivals will be singing the blues in no time. For their Final Smash, these perfect partners call upon a flock of Jinjos and the Mighty Jinjonator to deal the final blow to any “feeble jerk” that may stand in their way! This pack also includes the Spiral Mountain stage (which umm…spirals!), as well as a selection of music from the Banjo-Kazooie series. Challenger Pack 3 includes Banjo & Kazooie as a playable fighter, their stage, Spiral Mountain, and a selection of music from the Banjo-Kazooie series. Note: The content of this Challenger Pack is already included in the Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Fighters Pass.

The Fighters Pass gives you access to five Challenger Packs: five fighters, five stages and all their music tracks. Each Challenger Pack contains 1 new fighter, 1 new stage, and additional music tracks. Purchasers of the Fighters Pass will also receive an in-game Mii Swordfighter costume: Rex from the Xenoblade Chronicles 2 game.

In a frantic battle to the checkered flag, Sonic and friends speed around tracks set in medieval castle ramparts, lush rainforests and bustling cities, all taken from the visually rich and varied universes of Sonic and SEGA. Fan favorites such as Dr. Eggman, Tails, AiAi, Amigo and many more will join Sonic in their custom built vehicles, revving their engines and jostling to stay ahead of the pack. Each character will speed around the track in cars, planes, motorbikes, and in Aiai’s case – a banana mobile! Secret short cuts, swift handling and avoiding strategically placed obstacles are certainly the best way to get to the top of the podium.

Colossal, immense, and gigantic; beautiful, gorgeous, and grandiose -- these are the words one thinks of when describing Rare's follow-up adventure to Banjo-Kazooie. Keeping consistent with the attitude found in this title, Rare has wittily named it Banjo-Tooie. Banjo-Tooie, simply put, is incredibly unimaginable. The worlds are ludicrous in size, the gameplay is polished and deep, and the soundtrack proves to be an immaculate compliment. When it comes to defining platform-based entertainment, Banjo-Tooie is filled with chapter after chapter of standards. Explore eight giant worlds, solve puzzles and help game characters to unearth jiggys, play as Mumbo, a T-Rex, Submarine, Money-Van, Washing Machine, and more, and learn more than 40 new moves on the way.
