Banjo-Tooie "Stop'n'Swop" Secrets
Current Rating: Not Rated
Did it drive you nuts that Rare hid secrets in Banjo-Kazooie that could only be unlocked through Banjo-Tooie? Well, someone finally figured how to open up the hidden stuff. By using the following cheats, you will be able to raise Sharkfood Island, get to the Ice Key and collect all the secret eggs -- but there is still one question left to be answered. What the heck do you do with them? Alas, we don't have an answer to that question quite yet...
Whenever you collect one of these special items, they get added to a "Stop'n'Swop" inventory screen. Rumor has it that Rare came up with a way that lets you pull out BK while your N64 is still on and quickly plug in Banjo-Tooie. However, rumors from within Nintendo also suggest that the Big "N" wasn't thrilled at all about this technical feat and wanted Rare to get rid of the feature. Whatever the truth is, we still don't know how BK and BT connect. Until we find out, you can at least collect all the hidden goodies to get ready for the big day.
