'''Banjo's House''' is located in [[Spiral Mountain]], and in a greater scale, the [[Isle o' Hags]]. As its name implies, it is where [[Banjo]] and [[Kazooie]] live. It has appeared in every game in the ''[[Banjo-Kazooie series]]'' to date, except for ''[[Banjo-Pilot]]''. In ''[[Banjo-Kazooie]]'', Banjo and Kazooie are inside sleeping, when [[Tooty]] comes to visit and ends up getting kidnapped by [[Gruntilda Winkybunion|Gruntilda]]. In ''[[Banjo-Tooie]]'', Banjo, Kazooie, [[Mumbo Jumbo]], and [[Bottles]] are playing cards inside on a dark and stormy night. When Grunty is freed by her sisters from underneath the rock, she fires a spell at Banjo's house, destroying it and killing [[Bottles]] (who stayed inside when the others escaped) in the process.
'''Banjo's House''' is the residence of [[Banjo]], [[Kazooie]] and their pet goldfish, [[Roysten]]. The house is located in [[Spiral Mountain]]. It has appeared in every ''[[Banjo-Kazooie (series)|Banjo-Kazooie]]'' title to date, except for ''[[Banjo-Pilot]]''. The interior of Banjo's House serves as the main menu in most of its appearances, and is the first location to appear in each of its appearances.


Banjo's House only briefly appears in the opening and ending of ''[[Banjo-Kazooie: Grunty's Revenge]]''.
==Appearance==
[[File:Banjo's House BK.png|thumb|left|250px|The first appearance of Banjo's House in ''Banjo-Kazooie'']]
Banjo's House is a small, blue house featuring yellow window casings and a door. There are small patches of grass growing in front of Banjo's House. The roof is made up of shingles, and there is a brown chimney on top. The chimney does not appear in ''Banjo-Tooie''. The interior consists of a single large room with a bed, living room, and kitchen. The bedroom portion is on the left side, with a cuckoo clock at one side, a drawer and coat rack on the other side, and curtains behind the bed. Banjo uses the coat rack to hang his backpack. The living room is on the right side, featuring a blue sofa chair, a fireplace, and two shelves with books. The small kitchen appears straight across from the door. A large green rug appears in the center of the house.


In ''[[Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts]]'', Banjo and Kazooie are sitting outside of it, listening to the radio, with Kazooie playing a game with an Xbox 360 controller and headset. They never bothered to finish repairing it after the events of ''[[Banjo-Tooie]]''. At the end of ''Nuts & Bolts'', the house is repaired and repainted pink by [[Jolly Roger|Jolly Dodger]]. Banjo's house has also been used as the main menu in each of the console games.
A couple of portraits are shown inside the house, including one of [[Bottles]] (where they can play Bottles' Moving Picture Game later in the game), one of [[Tooty]], one of the beach location in the ending, and a portrait of an image from an [[Dream: Land of Giants|earlier version]] of ''Banjo-Kazooie''. In ''Banjo-Tooie'' the house became significantly damaged, and the interior itself was entirely damaged.


Inside Banjo's house is a bed, a fishbowl containing [[Roysten]], his pet goldfish, a fireplace (with a [[Bottles' Moving Picture Game|picture of Bottles above the mantle]]), a stove, a blue couch, Banjo's bed with a hat hanger where he puts his backpack (and Kazooie), and a picture of [[Tooty]]. In ''Nuts & Bolts'', a stack of Xbox 360s are seen and a box containing Kazooie's moves from the previous games can also be seen if the player defeats Gruntilda at the end of the game.
In ''[[Banjo-Kazooie: Grunty's Revenge]]'' the house has a purple outer wall and silver roof tiles.
 
In ''Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts'' the house is in a state of repair and age. The outer wall is cracked, exposing a series of bricks inside. There are wooden planks built around the house, and a few covering the broken window; some yellow planks surround the bottom of the house. The yellow door is replaced with a wooden door, which has letter signs on it, each spelling out a letter of "BANJO" (the 'A' is hanging upside-down). Some of the roof tiles are also missing. At the end of the game, [[Jolly Roger|Jolly Dodger]] repaints Banjo's House to pink, with a yellow roof and white trim around the windows.

Banjo's House is the residence of Banjo, Kazooie and their pet goldfish, Roysten. The house is located in Spiral Mountain. It has appeared in every Banjo-Kazooie title to date, except for Banjo-Pilot. The interior of Banjo's House serves as the main menu in most of its appearances, and is the first location to appear in each of its appearances.

Appearance

The first appearance of Banjo's House in Banjo-Kazooie

Banjo's House is a small, blue house featuring yellow window casings and a door. There are small patches of grass growing in front of Banjo's House. The roof is made up of shingles, and there is a brown chimney on top. The chimney does not appear in Banjo-Tooie. The interior consists of a single large room with a bed, living room, and kitchen. The bedroom portion is on the left side, with a cuckoo clock at one side, a drawer and coat rack on the other side, and curtains behind the bed. Banjo uses the coat rack to hang his backpack. The living room is on the right side, featuring a blue sofa chair, a fireplace, and two shelves with books. The small kitchen appears straight across from the door. A large green rug appears in the center of the house.

A couple of portraits are shown inside the house, including one of Bottles (where they can play Bottles' Moving Picture Game later in the game), one of Tooty, one of the beach location in the ending, and a portrait of an image from an earlier version of Banjo-Kazooie. In Banjo-Tooie the house became significantly damaged, and the interior itself was entirely damaged.

In Banjo-Kazooie: Grunty's Revenge the house has a purple outer wall and silver roof tiles.

In Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts the house is in a state of repair and age. The outer wall is cracked, exposing a series of bricks inside. There are wooden planks built around the house, and a few covering the broken window; some yellow planks surround the bottom of the house. The yellow door is replaced with a wooden door, which has letter signs on it, each spelling out a letter of "BANJO" (the 'A' is hanging upside-down). Some of the roof tiles are also missing. At the end of the game, Jolly Dodger repaints Banjo's House to pink, with a yellow roof and white trim around the windows.

In the opening, Tooty goes to visit Banjo at his house, only to be kidnapped by Gruntilda. Inside, Kazooie wakes up from the commotion while Banjo is still asleep. She wakes up Banjo and they go to investigate. The duo can optionally enter inside of Banjo's House.

If Banjo and Kazooie manage to obtain a Jiggy from the Sandcastle, they can play Bottles' Moving Picture Game by talking to the Bottles portrait in the living room.

Banjo-Tooie

In Banjo-Tooie, Banjo, Kazooie, Mumbo Jumbo, and Bottles are playing cards inside on a dark and stormy night. When Grunty is freed from beneath a rock by her sister, she fires a spell at Banjo's House. Mumbo and the others evacuate, although Bottles believes it to be a trick Bottles (who stayed inside when the others escaped) in the process.

Like the previous game, Banjo and Kazooie can optionally explore inside the house. The furniture and items were destroyed in the opening cutscene, and the interior is shown to be nearly empty. Black stains appear all over the walls and floor as a result of the spell.

Banjo-Kazooie: Grunty's Revenge

Banjo's House briefly appears in the opening and ending scenes of Banjo-Kazooie: Grunty's Revenge. Unlike the previous two games, Banjo and Kazooie are unable to explore inside the house.

Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts

The main menu is in Banjo's House in Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts.

In Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts, the main menu takes place inside Banjo's House another time, the third time in the series. The interior is a lot more unorganized than in Banjo-Kazooie given all the furniture stacked on top of each other. A photograph depicting Bottles's in-game appearance from Banjo-Kazooie is also hanging on the wall.

In the opening for the game, Banjo and Kazooie are lounging outside of Banjo's House. Banjo is listening to the radio while Kazooie playing a game with an Xbox 360 controller and headset. The house is poorly maintained because Banjo and Kazooie never bothered to finish repairing it after the events of Banjo-Tooie. A nearby tombstone of Bottles (a reference to his death in Banjo-Tooie) and a dumpster are located near Banjo's House.

During the ending, Jolly Dodger repairs the house and repaints it pink. Also, by defeating Gruntilda at the end, a stack of Xbox 360s and a box containing Kazooie's moves appear inside the house.

Like Grunty's Revenge, Banjo and Kazooie cannot explore inside their house. However, there is a bug allowing Banjo to clip inside his house. The house has a different interior appearance during main gameplay than from the main menu.
