==Gameplay==
==Gameplay==
The gameplay of ''Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts'' largely differs from the previous games. As Banjo and Kazooie have forgotten their moves and the bird's wings have been "clipped," they need to use vehicles in order to complete challenges and win their prizes. Outside a vehicle, they can use the newly-acquired [[Mumbo's Wrench]] to lift objects up or attack enemies. They can also climb things and swim.

Inside a vehicle, Banjo has many more possibilities. He can build them inside [[Mumbo Jumbo]]'s garage in the Town Square of Showdown Town with parts acquired from [[Mumbo Crate]]s such as engines, wings, propellers, wheels, fuel, ammo and weapons among other things, making for a wide variety of possible creations to complete objectives in multiple different ways.

*''[[mariowiki:Donkey Kong (franchise)|Donkey Kong]]'' franchise: During Gruntilda's challenge in LOGBOX 720, Banjo also says he remembers a "similar situation with a [[mariowiki:Taj|genie]] and a [[mariowiki:Wizpig|giant pig]]," referencing his appearance in ''[[Diddy Kong Racing]]''. ''Diddy Kong Racing'' is later directly mentioned during L.O.G.'s quiz in Spiral Mountain, appearing as the right answer for when he asks which game featured Banjo despite not being a ''Banjo-Kazooie'' game.
*''[[Banjo-Kazooie]]'': In Spiral Mountain, the garbage besides [[Banjo's house]] contains some objects from ''Banjo-Kazooie'' like the [[Ice Key]]. Several ''Banjo-Kazooie'' characters also appear to run shops in Showdown Town. Banjoland has several references to ''Banjo-Kazooie'', with several [[Information Point]]s directly mentioning the game and its events and many exhibits of characters, objects and locations from it. In this Game World's second Act, during a Jinjo Hurling challenge, the Jinjo also mentions he was reading old stories of [[the Mighty Jinjonator]]. In the Jiggosseum's scoreboard, many ''Banjo-Kazooie'' characters are mentioned, said to have participated in various matches against each other. A flying billboard outside the Terrarium of Terror advertising "[[Snacker]]'s Loans" can be seen. A Jinjo in this Game World also has a Jinjo Fetch challenge where he wants Banjo to get him his lost Ice Key. A vehicle part, the Freezeezy, is also named after [[Freezeezy Peak]]. Almost every Game World's theme also has segments from ''Banjo-Kazooie'' songs.
*''[[mariowiki:Mario (franchise)|Mario]]'' franchise: During the introduction sequence, L.O.G. states Banjo and Kazooie have not been featured in as many games as a certain Italian gentleman, referencing [[mariowiki:Mario|Mario]]. The [[achievement]] "Super Banjo Galaxy," unlocked by putting the Terrarium of Terror's [[Game Globe]] in its plinth, also references ''[[mariowiki:Super Mario Galaxy|Super Mario Galaxy]]''.
*''[[Banjo-Tooie]]'': In Spiral Mountain, the garbage besides Banjo's house contains some objects from ''Banjo-Tooie'' like [[Glowbo]]s and [[Ticket]]s. Bottles' Grave, referencing the fact he died in ''Banjo-Tooie'', is also seen in front of the house. Several ''Banjo-Tooie'' characters also appear to run shops in Showdown Town. In the third Act of Nutty Acres, a Jinjo in a Jinjo Fetch challenge asks Banjo to retrieve his lost Glowbo. Banjoland has several references to ''Banjo-Tooie'', with several Information Points directly mentioning the game and its events and many exhibits of characters, objects and locations from it.

*''[[rarewiki:Grabbed by the Ghoulies|Grabbed by the Ghoulies]]'': In the introduction sequence, when L.O.G. claims to have created every video game, Kazooie asks if he made "even the ones that don't sell well like ''Ghoulies''", with a small segment of the ''Grabbed by the Ghoulies'' theme playing when she says that. Some boxes of the game, [[rarewiki:Bonus Book|Bonus Books]] and [[rarewiki:Mr. Ribs|Mr. Ribs]]' skull are also seen in the garbage in front of Banjo's house, the latter two later being used as Jinjo Fetch items in the Terrarium of Terror and Banjoland, respectively. [[rarewiki:Ghoulhaven Hall|Ghoulhaven Hall]] can be seen in the background of Showdown Town. While in front of his [[L.O.G.'s Video Game Factory|factory]], L.O.G. states he is very good at disguising himself, then proceeds to say "pet my piglet", one of [[rarewiki:Fiddlesworth Dunfiddlin|Fiddlesworth]]'s many "fiddlerisms" he says throughout the game.

Some characters from the game are also mentioned in the Jiggosseum's scoreboard. "''Grabbed by the Ghoulies''" is a wrong answer for a question in L.O.G.'s [[List of questions from The Six of the Best|quiz show]] in Spiral Mountain where he asks what's the game that had a Banjo appearance despite not being a ''Banjo-Kazooie'' game, but as the right one in a question that asks "in which game could the dumbster outside Banjo's house in Spiral Mountain be previously seen".

==Reception==
''Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts'' was, upon release, harshly criticized for straying away too much from the formula used by its predecessors, ''Banjo-Kazooie'' and ''Banjo-Tooie'', but was praised for its vehicle building system and inovative gameplay.

|''Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts is a game that never stopped being fun for me. It's an odd duck that doesn't fit into any conventional game genres and probably isn't right for everybody. Despite its friendly appearance, Nuts & Bolts isn't exactly easy to pick up and play and might be over the head of some small children. There's a lot of depth here and the vehicle creation tools allow you to flex your mind and your fingers at the same time. This is a great change of pace from the usual Xbox 360 fare and a game that will offer a lot of fun to those willing to invest some time in it.''

|''Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts is a fantastically fun update to an aging formula. The easy vehicle-creation tool makes even the craziest ideas possible, and the missions let you exert your creative muscle in spectacular fashion. Aside from a few control quirks and frame-rate issues, N&B is a joy from beginning to end, providing a constant string of new parts and objectives to keep you entertained for a long time. If this is the direction that the Banjo franchise is going in, let's hope it's not another eight years between games.''

|5/5
|''Funny, inventive, gorgeous--and cheap. Microsoft decided to charge a mere $40 for Nuts & Bolts, but I got more laughs and more satisfying gameplay out of this one than most of the $60 games I've played this year. And even after spending nearly 20 hours amassing enough jiggies to take down the final boss, I'm compelled to get back in there and keep playing new missions, unlocking new vehicle parts, and exploring more of the game's beautiful world. I had no affection whatsoever for the Banjo-Kazooie franchise or characters going into Nuts & Bolts, but its list of great qualities quietly won me over to make it one of my favorite Xbox 360 games of the year.''
