Forums - Gaming - Banjo 64 coming to VC?

SHMUPGurus on 30 August 2008

I love it when companies work together. If it's true that Nintendo and Microsoft made a deal for the game to appear on both services, then it's awesome news to me.



Random game thought :
Why is Bionic Commando Rearmed 2 getting so much hate? We finally get a real game and they're not even satisfied... I'm starting to hate the gaming community so f****** much...

Watch my insane gameplay videos on my YouTube page!

Well interesting. If the logo is in there that means Nintendo is making a profit out of it going to XBLA which means more than likely it'll go to VC as well. Might be the closest we ever get to saying a Nintendo game being on another console haha.

Cool, it's nice too see them compromise, At least no one looses.

Donkey Kong has been ported to several consoles before the NES.

 

Oh don't get nitpicky.  That was an arcade game and Nintendo wasn't even in the hardware business yet.

I wonder if they will come to a compromise about Goldeneye as well.

I didn't play much of Banjo-Kazooie... but I do have Banjo-Tooie.

For those who have had both, which is better?

Banjo-Kazooie. The levels aren't unnecessary big and confusing like in Tooie and the framerate is slightly higher.

A casual gamer can't recognize all this. Who are you exactly? o_o

Nintendo owns the Donkey Kong IP--they maintained the rights to DK and Star Fox as part of the contract with Microsoft.

 



Could I trouble you for some maple syrup to go with the plate of roffles you just served up?

IMO Tooie sucked hard. The collect random crap got out of hand in the sequel. It is worst than DK 64 in some cases. The worlds are not big as we may think, they are just hard to navigate. For example, several items can only be collect under certain conditions. Kazzoie alone, Banjo alone, the duo, tranform into a animal, learn a move on later levels and come back, complete a specific challenge in a world to unlock something in the other. It isn`t fun.
