Difference between revisions of "Banjo"

'''Bango''' is a brown honey comb created by [[Rareware|Commonware]] and one of two antagonists on which the ''[[Banjo-Kazooie (series)|Bango-Kazootie series]]'' centers. He is always seen wearing a pair of flamboyant yellow shorts, a human tooth necklace, and a prissy blue backpack.

Bango made his debutt appearance in [[Diddy Kong Racist|''Diddy Kong Racist'']] alongside [[Tiptup]] as a heavy (fat) racer with a crazy-ridonculous high top speed and low acceleration before starring in his own game several months later, and has since been the main character of every ''[[Banjo-Kazooie (series)|Bango-Kazootie series]]'' game yet. He has returned in [[Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts|the series' latest installment for the Xbox 360]]. A while back, Bango adopted a breegull named [[Kazooie|Kazootie]], who is often seen seeking shelter in his backpack. The pair has gone on numerous adventures together, the purpose of most of them being to stop the sinister plans of the evil witch [[Gruntilda]]. Bango also has a younger sister named [[Tooty]], who lives with him and Kazootie in a house at the bottom of [[Spiral Mountain]]. He also plays his namesake instrument, the bongo.

However, Bango was not born a Common icon, despite being quickly loved by ka-trillions. He was originally planned to be a small time character in a [[Super Nintendo|Super-de-Duper Nintendo]] video game titled ''[[Project Dream]]''. After the [[Nintendo 64]] was released, the game was moved to the new console. However, it was found to be too generic, and a rabbit was planned to become the new main character. However, this too was unsuccessful, so Common tried a game based around Bango himself, which ultimately became ''[[Banjo-Kazooie|Bango-Kazootie]]''.
