Hope they bring back Spyro and Crash as well. I don't have much faith in MS when it comes to platform games though.

Yep Banjo and Conker could get a good attention and with GP now it will be easier to pull the numbers.

Hopefully we get a proper banjo 3.

Nuts and bolts may as well have been another IP.

Blinx was that generation's Knack it wasn't that good and will never get revived. I'm not even sure MS owns Blinx. Artoon made them. Banjo is money tho. I wish MS would revive Captain Skyhawk and Wizards and Warriors but that is never happening lol.

MS owns Blinx, but like you said, average IP at best. MS has much better IP's to pick from.

I was hyped for blinx when I read about its time control and saw the graphics design. Unfortunately, it played like a child’s learning game with shapes and letters. Gameplay was overly simple and enemies were generic. Had a great premis though!

I came here to say Kameo but you mention it in the OP.

My first 360 game and it still looks magical!

I know us Nintendo fans have been trashing Rare since the buyout calling all their games crap since, but I bet the fanbase will suddenly change their tune to Banjo NnB if it gets ported to the Switch.
