Banjo's debut[edit]

For those of you who don't know, Banjo first appeared in the 1997 Nintendo 64 racing game, Diddy Kong Racing. His inclusion was to promote his own then-upcoming game being released the following year. Conker was also included to promote his then-would-be first game, Conker's Quest (later renamed to Twelve Tales: Conker 64 in 1998; In fact: both games were demoed at E3 1997) before Rare reworked it into the Mature-rated game we know today.

1. I'm pretty sure everyone knew this, 2. I don't think this is proper usage of a talk page. Aidan, the Rurouni 02:25, July 21, 2019 (EDT)

Spiral Mountain is not on the Isle o' Hags.[edit]

I've already had one edit attempt to revert this, so I'm commenting here to make this clear: Spiral Mountain is not on the Isle o' Hags. The Isle o' Hags is not the greater location of any Banjo-Kazooie universe locations besides the worlds introduced in Banjo-Tooie. This is a well-established fact about the franchise. Do not make edits claiming otherwise. Evidence:

  1. The Isle o' Hags is never mentioned in any games outside of Banjo-Tooie and references to Banjo-Tooie.
  2. This information speaker in Nuts & Bolts says the digger tunnel once lead to the Isle o' Hags, heavily implying the island is separate from Spiral Mountain.
  3. This analysis of the overhead view of the Isle o' Hags in Banjo-Tooie does a concise and thorough job of finding a place for every world and hub area in Banjo-Tooie, but has no place for Spiral Mountain. Plastiware (talk)

Separate pages[edit]

Why do Banjo & Kazooie have their own separate pages? Pratikmii03 (talk) 22:04, November 29, 2019 (EST)

It was the result of a lot of discussion that ultimately ended in a consensus that the two characters are distinct enough entities to get separate pages. It's a decision I'm still a bit split over, personally, but more-or-less I think it works out. ~ Serena Strawberry (talk) 22:38, November 29, 2019 (EST)
I find it completely reasonable considering both of them are distinct characters, both in their home series and this game. - Mega Mario Man (talk) 22:40, November 29, 2019 (EST)
