| | '''''Banjo-Karting''''' was a canceled ''[[Banjo-Kazooie (series)|Banjo-Kazooie]]'' racing game planned to be released for the [[Xbox 360]]. In the game, multiple characters of the series such as [[banjo]], [[Kazooie]], [[Bottles]], [[Mumbo Jumbo]], [[Gruntilda]] and [[Klungo]] would be playable and could race in custom-built vehicles, much like in ''[[Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts]]''. Another racing title featuring ''Banjo-Kazooie'' characters, ''[[The Fast and the Furriest (racing game)|The Fast and the Furriest]]'', was also planned for the same console and, too, was canceled. |
| '''''Banjo-Karting''''', or '''''Banjo-Kazoomie''''', was an unreleased ''[[Banjo-Kazooie (series)|Banjo-Kazooie]]'' racing game that was developed for the the [[Xbox 360]]. It was started by Rare Ltd. just before the release of ''[[Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts]]''.<ref>[https://www.unseen64.net/2008/12/03/banjo-kazooie-nuts-bolts-x360-beta/ Unseen64]</ref> The concept is somewhat similar to ''[[Banjo-Pilot]]'', except that the characters would race in constructed vehicles made up of parts (like in ''Nuts & Bolts''). The game was cancelled when Rare began to only develop Kinect software. | |

| One of the cars originally featured in the prototype would later be incorporated into ''[[Sonic & Sega All-Stars Racing with Banjo-Kazooie]]''.
| | The [[Bolt Bucket]], a car featured in the ''Banjo-Karting'' prototype, was later repurposed for ''[[Sonic & Sega All-Stars Racing with Banjo-Kazooie]]''. |

| {{Quote|I've always wanted to do a racing game. I got to spend two weeks working on a prototype racing game for the Xbox. It was codenamed 'Banjo-Kazoomie', and it was a kind of kart racer, but you constructed the karts out of different parts, so I guess it was kind of a precursor to 'Nuts & Bolts '. But for those two weeks I was doing the driving mechanics for it.|Brendan Gunn}}
