I am pumped. This game ties with Fable 2 on my most anticipated list!

I'll still buy it. Who here completed both the pervious games? Ahh the memories...

 Super Mario Galaxy says hi.

 I'm stoked that they're bringing out another banjo-kazooie game, but the way they look.......just ugh. It totally takes away the charm of the series, to me. It reminds me of that "real" world mario pictures, where he's fat and scary, and peach looks very.....hmmm, promiscuous. Just totslly ruins it for me.

I've beaten both 100 percent. Tooie was no cake walk to get all the items...it had too many. Still great fun though.

And Tell Mario Galaxy I said hi

Wouldn't it be sweet if they re release the 1st two Banjo games for the 360.

Weren't they published by Nintendo?

 Well let's not forget the whole Goldeneye fiasco.  It was a Rare N64 title just like Banjo, and Microsoft was going to put it on Live with online multiplayer, but apparently it got cancelled because Microsoft and Nintendo could not agree on prices.  WHO CARES, it's all profit and your fans want the game!  Just like Banjo!

I wish there was a way for them to come to VC though.

That's a bit different because there was a third party involved and MS never purchased the rights to Goldeneye like they did with Banjo. Nintendo didn't want Activision to release the title and Rare does NOT own the Goldeneye IP.

MS paid an additional 17 million or so(I forgot the exact figure) for all of the IPs that Rare established while with Nintendo. No one has ever given a clear answer about this but I do believe that MS can do whatever they like with the Banjo titles.  I'm sure we're going to find out this year what the deal is.

I really hope BOTH banjo's come to the XBLA. I never played Tooie, but i still have number one lying around here somewhere for the 64, it is AWESOME!
