Banjo Kazooie Secrets

[@BikdipOnABus]

I don't think I've ever seen this channel before until a few days ago when I watched the "worst golden banana in DK64" video. I thought it was cool, and I had never heard of that particular issue before. A few other videos have shown up in my youtube feed, but I'm not a huge Sonic fan, so I didn't watch any of the others. Then today, people let me know that I was mentioned in this video, and sure enough, there's my old GameFAQs post. Sometimes you've gotta wonder how stuff like this happens.

I've never thought about it. But all of this stop n swap could have been solved and implemented by adding memory card compatibility to the games. I keep forgeting that the n64 had memory cards. There is no need for bricking your n64 or your card by ripping them off the console abruptly. Just buy a memory card, you know kids back in the day would had done it just for this.

[@diegog1853]

@@8Kazuja8 I know, not saying that they made a mistake. I'm sure that giving the circumnstances sounded everything like a good idea. Just saying that in hindsight, they could have absolutely pulled this off using the memory pack. And granted, it wouldn't be as magical as the original concept. But its way better than no implementation at all. I'm also not saying that the game should required the memory pack to save. They can have the normal baterry save and in adition this other functionality with the memory pack. I mean imagine if, since the system would work, they could incorporate all the original ideas and even bring the planned compatibility with donkey kong 64 or even other games. Who knows really how many ideas they had before they knew that their system couldn't work

[@KiraSlith]

They technically could've if they'd tried a different methodology entirely. The N64 can do in-RAM program execution and doesn't lock down the cartridge while turned on, just unload everything else, dump the right modules and code into RAM, hold a CPU loop on the code in RAM, prompt the player to swap in the other cartridge and then press A. When the player presses A, check the cartridge to see what game is inserted, then load the new cartridge as expected without refreshing RAM so the modules you loaded run as intended OR just write the values for the goodies to the new cartridge's SRAM. Bam, Stop-N-Swop without any weird hardware exploits. They could've even had the loader activated by a code in the castle.

[@alfiehicks1]

They could've also used the Expansion Pak. Not for any enhancements to the actual game, but just by simply storing some information relating to Stop 'N' Swop in the memory addresses beyond the console's built-in 4MB, they could've then had Tooie read from that area in memory upon booting. The Expansion Pak stores all data that it was previously holding after the console is turned off, and it even continues to store it when a new game is started if that game doesn't make use of the Expansion Pak - it's why Space Station Sillicone Valley doesn't work with it. They were planning for compatibility with DK64, (Which, by the way, was planned to use the Expansion Pak for quite a while before its release. The rumour about it only fixing a game-breaking memory leak is true, but the game does also use the full 8MB of memory as well.) so it could be assumed that the player would have had an Expansion Pak or would have been willing to get one to do it.

[@diegog1853]

@@alfiehicks1 To my knowledge the expansion pak was released after banjo kazooie, Banjo kazooie was released in jun 1998 and the expansion pak in the same year but in quarter four, Dk64 was released in the holidays of next year. So that could've been imposible.

[@diegog1853]

@@KiraSlith Doesn't the console turns itself off when you remove a cartridge? The whole ram retaining information is most likely due to a capacitor keeping the current flowing for a little longer. Sorry if I'm wrong, I just don't understand whats different about your method, your method still requieres the ram to hold information while the console is turned off. So the kids would still have to remove and plug the next cartridge quickly, Don't they? And they still would have just some minutes until the capacitor runs out of juice.

[@SixArmedSweater]

They should’ve just made Tooie a Sonic & Knuckles style lock-on cartridge.

[@OlathianDrunkard]

Fun fact about The Lost, actually... A character known as Keeper was brought into the game, but instead of loading everything in and having the neat stuff be found immediately by dataminers, the crew just decided to... not upload anything! It was a pretty neat ARG, and there's even a Twitter Account that plays a part in it. I wasn't part of it, but the stuff I hear people talk about makes it seem like it was amazing.

[@TheBoxyBear]

Loved the Bottles puzzles... excpet for the bug with a SINGLE note in the last puzzle that lockled me out of 100%. Basically, on the XBLA/Rare Replay version, notes can only be collected once and no longer spawn. During the last puzzle, Banjo is shown collecting a certain note in the beehive and since it's not pre-rendered, the note actually gets collected and sets the flag for it to not spawn in the future, without increasing the note count for the level.

[@papersonic9941]

They did patch that, thankfully

[@fb5601]

All right, let’s assume he has accumulated these over the last almost three years. Let’s assume he made approximately 1.5 videos a month. This means he currently has about 52.5 videos, minus the 7 we have now. That leaves us with about 45.5, which is enough to go all the way to 1st November. By then he may even finish two more videos. If he made a Sonic Mania Plus video as soon as it came out we should get the video in about 6-7 days (23rd/24th September). If he made a Sonic 3 bonus video or at least something when the beta ROM came out we should be getting that in about 28-29 days (14th/15th October). If he made a Sonic Movie review when it came out it should come out in about 35 days (22nd october).

I remember on the original ratchet and clank games on ps2 in the sequels you got a classic ratchet skin and even a discount on items in the game if you had a ratchet 1 save file. In ratchet 1 there's a throw away line about getting a discount if you work with gadgetron for 2 years. So to see that discount actually in ratchet 3 blew my mind.

[@dreamareakoso3791]

fun fact: the truck found in Pokémon Red/Green/Blue/Yellow were originally found in a lot more places all over the map as found in earlier versions of the map which looked completely different, my guess is they just forgot to remove the truck in the S.S. Anne area since they probably assumed no one would be able to find it anyways so they probably didn’t even realize the truck was still in the game until people found it

There are quite a few cool things that are cross referenced between BK and Tooie. I like the one where in the first game, once you annoy Gobi enough, he leaves his valley and goes to another world where he thinks you won't bother him. And once you annoy him there he says something like "that's it, I'm going to the lava world, I bet you won't find it". Indeed, there is no lava world in the first BK but there is one in the sequel and sure enough, Gobi is there. This, the T-Rex transformation reference, Stop 'n' Swop and other things like these really show how much the devs were thinking about the sequel already when they were still making BK1.

[@fuzy2449]

many ideas from BT were intended to exist in BK like witchy world and the lava world concept kind of made it into hailfire peaks

[@Omnywrench]

The whole idea of Stop N' Swap relying on the N64's 10-second RAM retention is pretty cool, even if it didnt end up working out. Still, it's a great example of how experimental early video game developers could get, exploiting and working around the limits of hardware and software to bring as much content to their game as possible.

23:36 I felt that quite well It's partly painful to see how games now don't have the kind of secrets and unknowns that made us question everything as children when we were stupid and innocent enough to think that Sonic could be unlocked in Super Mario World or when we thought that secret characters could be unlocked in the GTA San andreas Many things that we read from magazines or that friends told us excited because they swore they were true. That magic is still alive, but in different ways, now most of the interesting mysteries are usually given using ARG games, like TBOI I guess what we can appreciate most now is that memory. In part it hurts a little, because I could not live in the golden age of those consoles and games, since I am from 2001. But, even so I have a slight feeling of nostalgia and affection for a time that I don't even participate in.

[@paprikastaude]

I don't know if it was solely because we were kids back then, but all these Rareware hubworlds and secrets just felt magical and truly mystical.

[@SetnaroX]

If you want a crazy hidden secret in today's generation of gaming, look at Payday 2's secret ending. It was so damn cryptic folks didn't discover the ending until 5 years after its release. It requires a full team of players to coordinate online, translate and decode another language and unlock hidden achievements not specified in the game to even get remotely close to whatever it is the game is hiding. I'm sure now there's some good documentation about it but I think it's the closest we've had to seeing the same kind of absurd secrets we had in the old days.

[@piratebear3126]

I have some Stop n Swap trivia: the technique was used in Donkey Kong Country as an anti-piracy. DKC checks for RAM data on boot and if it finds data in RAM (like what a copier would leave) it sets a flag on the save tells you to power off for 10 seconds to clear the RAM. If there’s still data in RAM when you reboot it throws up the anti-piracy screen. I find it fascinating that Rare probably knew about this phenomenon since DKC and even had a failsafe in case someone accidentally triggered the anti-piracy by swapping games too quickly.

I remember hearing an interview a few years back from the main developer of Twinbeard (the genius behind Frog Fractions). Like the last few minutes of this video, he mentions a similar sort of concept related to secrets in video games and how the internet has sort of ruined the fun in that regard. It's rare (pun intended) to see developers nowadays include secrets that very few people will find but when they do, it creates that spark of childlike wonder and curiosity that has eroded away from all of us with the passing of time. Banjo-Kazooie was one of my first loves when it comes to media (of any kind) and I too spent dozens of hours trying to figure out how to get that heckin ice key. I remember that my parents even got in on the fun, trying to think of ways to unlock that thin wall of ice. Video games are truly an art form unlike any other (due to their inherently interactive nature) and it's always a delight to see developers play with that concept. Wonderful content. Thank you for your contribution to the world. Keep on being awesome.

Here’s a neat crossover feature! In the original DJMAX Portable games for PSP, there was an option called Link Disc in the title screen where if you have the other DMP games, you can unlock entire new songs unavailable with just the base game. This feature even exists in the newest DJMAX game where if you have a combination of certain DLC packs you can unlock new songs

I like how you give a more optimistic perspective on the internet at the end, it's better than just saying "I miss the good old days when blah blah blah". It does kinda suck that the sense of mystery with modern video games is almost none existent in the age of the internet but it's not like we can time travel to the past or anything. It's best to look on the bright side of the future, it may not be the same but at least we can get together on the internet and talk about this kinda stuff and still have a good time doing so.

We get like six this week. Then we get five more after three years.

My favorite usage of the save data from other games unlocking stuff is with sonic mega collection. It’s normally so convoluted to unlock games in it so having that as an alternate option really helped

With that last part about keeping the mystery and obscure ARG’s I’m sure Cyber is fucking with us

It's possible to have hidden shit in games, things like some GTA V secrets took quite some time to be found.

[@zandermetrakos2637]

I miss secrets like this too. I remember playing portal 2 50 billion times and each time looking for new secrets. And surprisingly I would often find new ones

My dude you cant keep doing this to me.

The absolute best part about the secret Akuma fight in Super Turbo is how Bison just lies exactly where Akuma left him, completely bodied.
