*The Bleaters hold the honor of being the only thing from ''[[Banjo-Kazooie: Grunty's Revenge]]'' to be mentioned in ''[[Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts]]''. Upon the completion of the mission "Canned and Panned" (which involves transporting spherical inflatable sheep from one part of [[Banjoland]] to another) [[Bottles]] will say that it is clear that Banjo already had practice herding sheep, a possible reference to [[Sheep Dip]]. However if the duo get a [[Trophy Thomas]] for completing the challenge, Bottles' dialogue is different and makes no mention of the Bleaters minigame.
