A few of the Stop 'n' Swop items were repurposed for ''Banjo-Tooie'', the [[Ice Key]] and the pink, yellow, and light blue Mystery Eggs. Aside from the Yellow Mystery Egg, Banjo and Kazooie can obtain each item by defeating a [[Banjo-Kazooie Game Pak]] enemy. After obtaining an egg, Banjo and Kazooie must return to [[Heggy's Egg Shed]], where Kazooie must use her [[Hatch]] ability on the egg to unlock a feature. The Ice Key was used for unlocking a [[Mega Glowbo]] that can transform Kazooie into a [[Dragon Kazooie|dragon]].

Stop 'n' Swop is referenced by [[Cheato]] in ''[[Banjo-Pilot]]''. Upon completing most of the game, Cheato sells an item called "STOP 'N' SWOP" for 999 [[Cheato Page]]s. This only results in Cheato saying, "So you want to know about Stop 'N' Swop, eh? I hope you're ready. Here goes...Why don't you stop annoying me and swop this game for a nice book or something?"

Additionally, for each Stop 'n' Swop item added to the ''[[Banjo-Tooie (Xbox Live Arcade)|Banjo-Tooie]]'' on Xbox Live Arcade, the player can unlock up to seven additional vehicle blueprints in the [[L.O.G.'s Lost Challenges]] DLC for ''Nuts & Bolts''.

Other Stop 'n' Swop references include an imprint of the Ice Key on top of [[Boggy's Gym]] and the large, fake Stop 'n' Swop eggs in [[Banjoland]] containing [[Gruntbot]]s. [[Bottles]] also offers a "Stop 'n' Swop Truth" in exchange for 6,000 [[Music Note]]s. It is impossible to attain this amount since only 5,000 Music Notes appear in the game. An unused text string reveals that Bottles would have said, "''I could tell you, but then I'd have to kill you, and we couldn't show that in a game with this rating. Put it out of your mind and think happy thoughts! Thanks for the notes!''"<ref>[https://tcrf.net/Banjo-Kazooie:_Nuts_%26_Bolts TCRF]</ref>

[[Trophy Thomas]] also accuses the player of cheating using Stop 'n' Swop during one of his challenges, and during a trivia, [[Lord of Games]] asks a question regarding a failed connection between ''Banjo-Kazooie'' and ''Banjo-Tooie'', of which the answer is "Stop 'n' Swop".

==Trivia==
*In ''Grabbed by the Ghoulies'', there is a chalkboard that reads "Collect Ice Key. Collect 4 eggs. Open Secret Level." This has been presumed to be nothing more than a way to mock fans, but it is unknown whether it's fake.
*In ''{{w|Grabbed by the Ghoulies}}'', one of the chalkboards in the schoolroom references Stop 'n' Swop with a mathematical equation: "[egg] + [egg] + [egg] + [egg] + [key] = ?".
*The first part of the theme that plays when Banjo enters an area containing a Stop 'n' Swop item was later used in ''Donkey Kong 64'', where it plays when Troff and Scoff open a boss door.
*Stop 'n' Swop has been mentioned various times in ''[[Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts]]''. [[Bottles]] pretends to offer the secret of Stop 'n' Swop for 6000 [[notes]] (despite the fact that there aren't 6000 notes in the game), but steals the player's notes and doesn't tell them anything, claiming that he'd have to kill them. [[Trophy Thomas]] accuses the player of cheating using Stop 'n' swop at one of his challenges. A few mystery eggs and a fake [[Ice Key]] are in [[Banjoland]]. [[Lord of Games]] asks a question about Stop 'n' Swop during the trivia, asking what failed connection from [[Banjo-Kazooie]] to [[Banjo-Tooie]] that some fans still won't shut up about was. Paintings of the eggs and an imprint of the [[Ice Key]] around [[Showdown Town]] and [[Boggy's Gym]] could also be found. These will give parts when the eggs are collected in Banjo-Kazooie on the Xbox Live Arcade. (Beacon, [[Roysten|Goldfish]], Mole-on-a-Pole, Googly Eyes, Fluffy Dice, Flag (2x), & Disco Ball)
*Stop 'n' Swop was also mentioned in [[Banjo-Pilot]], as a reward from Cheato. Upon attempt to receive it, he says, "Why don't you STOP annoying me and SWOP this game for a nice book or something?"
