I've always believed that Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts deserves way more love than it got. I can understand it may have been just a the wrong time (and not what fans were hoping for with a BK revival at the time) but the core vehicle building gameplay and physics are so much fun to play around with.
I've beaten the game a few times over now, and each time I try to challenge myself to make wilder vehicles than before. Or sometimes avoid making a vehicle entirely and attempting to make some sort of contraption machine. The music is some incredible work from Grant Kirkhope and Robin Beanland, bringing in a more modern but still very Banjo sound to the game.
I think now with the game being nearly 15 years behind us now, if you have GamePass please do yourself a favor and give it a try with an open mind! It may not be for everyone, but the building mechanics were pretty ahead of their time for 2008! You may just find a new favorite game :)
They really did this game dirty by teasing it as Banjo-Kazooie 3. Probably the biggest reason why it failed, even though it was a pretty cool game.
Would really love a PC version of it as well.
Totally agree. I figured all of Rare Replay would have come to PC by now but maybe someday...
Every game releases on PC at some point, whether through emulation or not is up to the developers/publishers. :D
