Banjo-Tooie is a platform and action-adventure hybrid video game developed by Rare and published by Nintendo in 2000 for the Nintendo 64 as a part of the Banjo-Kazooie series. The game is the successor to Banjo-Kazooie and was one of the most anticipated sequels for the Nintendo 64.
The game's story takes place two years after Banjo-Kazooie. The antagonist, Gruntilda Winkybunion and her sisters, Mingella and Blobbelda, are planning to restore Gruntilda's body to its original form. Banjo and Kazooie must stop them before it is too late.

I remember those. Never got around to play too much of either, though, because I never owned a 64.

I loved those games. Sure, they were essentially mimicking Mario 64, but who doesn't want more of that?!!

They released on XBLA.

Cost me $30 for the both of 'em. Worth it.

Oh right. I was confused by that K&T thingy. Thought it was something else.

But yeah, I've beaten both those games. Pretty much 100% I think. I can't remember. Borrowed it from a friend many years back when they were released.
No more of them though. The company no longer works for Nintendo.

Battletoads Double Dragon wasn't so bad, Battletoads: Battlemaniacs was HARD as heck. The arcade release was more beat-em-up and was quite bloody.

I can't get past the new character designs.

After:

I'm so glad they gave Kazooie that sexy "come-hither" gaze or I would have never known it was a she. And that would be a tragedy.

She lays eggs after all. And is refered to as she and her throughout the game.

So does Yoshi, so I can see how people get confused.
Title: Re: Banjo K&T - Goooood times
Post by: Razor on May 03, 2009, 10:31:19 PM
And to throw egglaying confusion in the mix, so does Birdo.



Archem, how are the controls for Banjo Kazooie and Tooie on live? I might actually consider getting them if they play well enough.
The original was fantastic and the music was great (a lot of it a variation of teddy bear picnic, which is cute the way they did it) but I never got a chance to play the sequel.


I was quite disappointed when I heard Banjo N&B decided to take from the original formular and replace with MAEK CARZ.
They didn't want to rehash, sure, but when you rehash Banjo Kazooie with new graphics and stuff, how could you possibly go wrong?

Well, Yoshi is a dinosaur... And.... Well.

Erhm. Lastminutelogic.

Yoshi eats people and crap them out as eggs. He doesn't actually make mini yoshis appear from there unless it's a female yoshi. I think yoshi's reproduction is more like in Alien with those long tongues and all.
Title: Re: Banjo K&T - Goooood times
Post by: Valiere on May 03, 2009, 10:40:07 PM
There's certainly no rhyme or reason to it, but if a baby doesn't eventually come out of it, it's not an egg. And "Yoshi's Island" calls them eggs. I can't remember if any other game involves Yoshi laying eggs though.

And...is Birdo male?
Title: Re: Banjo K&T - Goooood times
Post by: Prpl_Mage on May 03, 2009, 10:43:03 PM

Transvestite in that case.
But s/he sure got a big round mouth(or is it the butt, there keeps coming eggs out of it) though.
Title: Re: Banjo K&T - Goooood times
Post by: Razor on May 03, 2009, 11:17:17 PM
Birdo was male in Super Mario Brothers 2.
Nintendo have long since and on many occasions said that OH NO WAIT BIRDO WAS A GIRL ALL ALONG even calling her or a seperate, unique Birdo who looks exactly the same as all the other Birdos "Catherine" on a few occasions.

BUT IF YOU BELIEVE NINTENDO'S LIES SO HELP YOU GOD--



The only case of Yoshi eggs bearing children that I can remember is at the end of Super Mario World.
Though you never find out who laid those eggs.
Title: Re: Banjo K&T - Goooood times
Post by: Grandy on May 04, 2009, 12:37:49 AM
You know how when Yoshi's eggs break in Yoshi islan, there's nothing inside? You know, not the parts of an egg which actually make it possible to bear children? Yeah.
Title: Re: Banjo K&T - Goooood times
Post by: Darkfox on May 04, 2009, 12:52:56 AM
In Yoshi's Island, didn't some eggs pop open with stars or something inside?

Great. The controls work about as well as they should (tight movements, but not stiff, all the buttons respond great, and there's a minimum of the "right joystick = C buttons" nonsense that Wii's VC ports do), and they've gone and made the right stick control the camera. Absolutely fantastic, although some elements show their age.

Oh, and the FPS sections of Tooie are much more fun than I remember, especially since they have modernized controls added (in other words, they're optional if you loved the old style). Worth the money (although I wish they would have added online multiplayer for Tooie).

I beat the first one. God I love Rareware games music. the composition is what got me hooked to Doney kong 64, Banjo & kazzoie, and Perfect dark. Conkers BFD was epic win too. :3
Title: Re: Banjo K&T - Goooood times
Post by: Archem on May 04, 2009, 06:05:32 PM
Oh God, CBFD is, to this day, my favorite N64 game. It's even on my top 5 games of all time. I've lost so many hours to that gem.

If they put it on XBLA with reworked MP controls and online support, I'd give them any number of monies they demand for it (**** the Xbox remake).

1: I fail to understand XBLA. ;__;'' and 2: The Xbox remake was good, until I played the multiplayer mode, then I died a little on the inside (>;_;)>

XBLA = Xbox Live Arcade. And the Xbox remake was fine, except they axed the old multiplayer in favor of the new one (which is a fine mode of play, but killing off all the old ones is a sin against... Well, everything), and they censored the single player dialogue more than the N64 version (and this was at the point where dialogue censorship in an M rated game was finally nonexistent). The bottom line: It felt like they had gone in reverse. Barring graphics, controls, online, and some elements of the single player dialogue, it would seem obvious that the N64 version was a superior remake of the Xbox version.
