The '''Rusty Bucket''' is a | The '''Rusty Bucket''' is a large cargo ship and the main feature of [[Rusty Bucket Bay]] in ''[[Banjo-Kazooie]]''. It appears as a large cargo ship in an extremely polluted industrial harbor. Its main deck is covered with [[Flotsam]]s and [[Grimlet]]s. It also contains a number of rooms and cabins. Other features such as whistles, ladders, smokestacks and coolers are also found on deck. | ||

The | ===Engine Room=== | ||
The [[Engine Room]] is commonly dubbed the hardest area to navigate in ''[[Banjo-Kazooie]]''. It is a large room containing giant cogs and gears. The player is required to press a button in an adjoining room to slow the fan blades in order to get a [[Jiggy]]. If the two switches are hit, then the ship's propellers will stop for 65 seconds allowing the player to get the [[Jiggy]] from behind them. This is often referred to by players as the hardest [[Jiggy]] to acquire in the game. The threat of falling, constantly moving parts, and difficult enemies are what supposedly makes it so hard. | |||

=== | ===Anchor Room=== | ||
The [[Anchor Room]] is a room located in the hull of the ship. Underneath the ship the player will find a dolphin named [[Snorkel]] trapped under an anchor. The dolphin asks that [[Banjo]] and [[Kazooie]] release him by hitting the Anchor Switch. In order for the player to reach the Anchor Switch, he or she must climb into the hole in which the Anchor is stored, make their way passed a line of [[Grille Chompa]]s and hit the anchor switch, thus freeing [[Snorkel]] and getting a [[Jiggy]]. | |||
===Cargo Hold=== | |||
To enter the ship's [[The Hold|Cargo Hold]], the player must release a box of TNT into it by the use of a nearby cargo crane. Once the box has been dropped in, the player may jump into the hold to reveal that the box of TNT was in fact the [[Boss Boom Box]]. The player must defeat the Boss Boom Box in order to receive a [[Jiggy]]. | |||

A model of the front half of the Rusty Bucket appears in [[Banjoland]] in ''[[Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts]]'', as an exhibit with a huge hole in the hold, which rather comically features a message stating that it was too hardcore for today's modern players. The model of the ship has three chimneys, instead of the two. The real ''Rusty Bucket'' appears in the background when looking out past the Docks in [[Showdown Town]] (except it is missing a smokestack, due, surely, given the low graphics level in Showdown Town's backgrounds). | |||

==Trivia== | ==Trivia== | ||
* | *Rumor suggests that [[Captain Blackeye]] captains the ''Rusty Bucket'', but it is more likely he would captain a traditional pirate ship as per his original role. It is much more likely that Grunty is the captain. | ||
* | *On the promotional video given to Nintendo Power subscribers prior to the game's release, narrator Jon Lovitz states that the name of the ship is the H.M.S. Gruntilda. This was either misinformation or an affectionate pseudonym, as the name ''Rusty Bucket'' can be seen on the stern of the ship in both ''[[Banjo-Kazooie]]'' and ''[[Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts]]'' (although the ship in [[Banjoland]] is only a model). | ||
*Beneath the words "''Rusty Bucket''" on the stern of the ship is the name of the town "Twycross, England". The company [[Rareware]] that created the [[Banjo-Kazooie series|Banjo-Kazooie games]] is based in Twycross, England. | |||
*In the Bunk Room, there is a poster of Berri from ''[[conkerwiki:Twelve Tales: Conker 64|Twelve Tales: Conker 64]]'', which was under development at the time. This was later changed to [[conkerwiki:Conker the Squirrel|Conker]], in his ''[[conkerwiki:Conker's Bad Fur Day|Bad Fur Day]]'' attire. | |||
