Many games made by Rare have references to other games hidden within them, and the Banjo-Kazooie series is no exception. From names of characters to pieces of music, there's another cameo around every corner if you know what to look for.
Banjo-Kazooie
- In the Grunty's Furnace Fun game, among the wrong answers for a question regarding Nabnut's name is "Conker the Squirrel," a reference to the main character from Conker's Pocket Tales for the Gameboy Color and its M-rated sequel Conker's Bad Fur Day for the Nintendo 64.
- In the crew quarters of the Rusty Bucket there's a pinup picture of Berri, Conker's girlfriend, as she appears in Conker's Pocket Tales.
- The fanfare which plays upon the player discovering a Mystery Egg or the Ice Key can also be heard in Donkey Kong 64 after feeding bananas to Scoff.
- Gnawty the Beaver, an enemy in the Donkey Kong franchise, appears in Click Clock Wood, also, Snacker the Shark bears striking resemblance to certain Shark enemies in Donkey Kong Country.
- Captain Blackeye, the villain of Project Dream, appears in pictures in Mad Monster Mansion.
Banjo-Tooie
- Loggo the toilet mentions Mario, Nintendo's mascot and the most famous and successful video game character of all time.
- Captain Blackeye makes an appearance in Jolly Roger's Lagoon, in Jolly's Inn.
- In this game return Boggy and his family.
- In Grunty Industries, there is a fridge with the logos of Banjo-Kazooie, Banjo-Tooie, Perfect Dark and Donkey Kong.
- In this game there are two ice cubes, George Ice Cube and Mildred Ice Cube. Both names are a reference to the 1970s British sitcom, Man About the House.
Other games
- In the file selection area of Conker's Bad Fur Day, Banjo's head can be seen as a trophy mounted over the fireplace. There's also an umbrella handle which looks like Kazooie's head.
- Both Banjo and Tiptup appeared as selectable characters in the Donkey Kong spin-off Diddy Kong Racing for the N64. The game was actually released several months before Banjo-Kazooie, and as such Tiptup is usually considered to be originally from Diddy Kong Racing, although the two games were in production at the same time, and the release of Banjo-Kazooie was also delayed.
