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).
