'''Extra Lives''' recurring items in the [[Banjo-Kazooie series]]. Despite the implication their name give, their function is actually different from game to game.
'''Extra Lives''', also known as '''Golden Banjos''',<ref>''Banjo-Kazooie: The Official Player's Guide'', page 16</ref> are a recurring object in the [[Banjo-Kazooie (series)|''Banjo-Kazooie'' series]].


==Location and uses==
==Games==
Extra Lives are statuettes of [[Banjo]] and items that provide an extra life to [[Banjo]] and [[Kazooie]], as directly stated by their name.
===''[[Banjo-Kazooie]]''===
As their name implies, once obtained, these give [[Banjo]] and [[Kazooie]] one extra life. They are muscular golden statues of Banjo.
Whenever a game file is loaded, the duo begin with three lives (regardless of how many they had when the file was last played). Up to nine lives can be collected. They can be found in virtually every level, but are usually hidden and require Banjo and Kazooie to use quick movements and decisive thinking to acquire them.


===''Banjo-Kazooie''===
This is the only game that  Extra Lives serve this purpose. They do not appear in ''[[Banjo-Tooie]]'' because it does not have a life system as its predecessor did, thus these Golden Banjo Statues were not needed.
[[File:BK Extra Life sprite.png|left]]
In ''Banjo-Kazooie'', Extra Lives appear in every level, including both the [[Spiral Mountain]] and [[Gruntilda's Lair]] hub worlds, and there are a total of 49 Extra Lives. Each level features either two or three Extra Lives, although in the final level, [[Click Clock Wood]], the Extra Lives are relocated based on the current season. Extra Lives most often appear in well-hidden or hard-to-reach areas. When Banjo and Kazooie obtain an Extra Life, it is added to their [[health bar]], where a number represents their current number of lives. If Banjo and Kazooie exit then later re-enter a level, the Extra Lives return to their original locations, if the duo have obtained any.


By default, Banjo and Kazooie start out with four extra lives. Their current number of extra lives is displayed from the health bar, next to an icon of their heads. The counter is only represented by one-digit numbers, therefore only counting up to ten. However, Banjo and Kazooie can exceed this number and obtain ten or more extra lives; if they lose a life, the game internally subtracts from their total number of lives, and the counter remains at ten. If Banjo and Kazooie lose their tenth extra life, the lives counter goes down to nine, and so forth. If the player resets the game, Banjo and Kazooie's lives are reset back to four.
===''[[Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts]]''===
A yellow [[Jinjo]] in Act 6 of [[LOGBOX 720]] has lost his Extra Life and needs the duo to recover it for him. It is located on a ledge in the upper portion of the console, so a plane-type vehicle is needed. A yellow [[Jinjo Token]] is won for bringing it back.


In subsequent games of the ''Banjo-Kazooie'' series, starting with ''[[Banjo-Tooie]]'', the lives system was removed. To reflect this change, the lives counter was removed from the health bar.
In terms of appearance, the lone Extra Life in this game is nearly the same as the ones in ''[[Banjo-Kazooie]]''. However this one is much larger than Banjo, has no base, and has his same physique.

[[File:Golden Banjo Statue NnB.jpg|thumb|200px|Banjo posing next to the Extra Life statue in ''Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts'']]
In ''[[Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts]]'', a massive Extra Life statue appears as a Jinjo Fetch item in Act 6 of [[LOGBOX 720]], where it belongs to a [[Jinjo#Yellow|Yellow Jinjo]]. The Extra Life statue retains its physique, although it was changed to be twice Banjo's height, and the bottom trophy base was removed.  
 
The Extra Life statue is on a ledge in the console's upper portion, which Banjo can only reach by using a plane vehicle. After returning the Extra Life, Banjo and Kazooie are rewarded with a [[Jinjo Token]].

===''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate''===
In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', on the [[smashwiki:Spiral Mountain|Spiral Mountain]] stage, an Extra Life can be found on top of [[Banjo's House]] and behind the waterfall, just like in the original ''Banjo-Kazooie''.
