'''Showdown Town''' is a location in ''[[Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts]]''.

==Features and overview==
Showdown Town is the hub world of ''Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts''. It is a large town that [[L.O.G.]] transports [[Banjo]], [[Kazooie]], and [[Gruntilda]] to when he steps in to settle their feud over [[Spiral Mountain]]'s ownership. While Banjo and Kazooie are in Showdown Town, L.O.G. only allows them to use the default [[Trolley MK.]] vehicle. The trolley is automatically upgraded with more parts as the duo complete [[Grunty Challenge]]s, making more of the town accessible, although they can access some areas early by building a staircase from crates and climbing them, or by putting an object on their trolley, standing on it, and lifting it with the [[Mumbo Wrench]], essentially causing it to fly.

The area has a few cameos of other [[Rare Ltd.|Rare]] games, especially ''[[rarewiki:Grabbed by the Ghoulies|Grabbed by the Ghoulies]]''. A few characters from the game have their own store, including "Mr. Ribs' BBQ Ribs," "Ma Soupswill's Authentic Ice Cream," and "Green Fingers Fiddlesworth Garden Centre." [[rarewiki:Ghoulhaven Hall|Ghoulhaven Hall]] is also visible at the peak of Showdown Town. One of the shops has two windows with newspapers showing [[rarewiki:Conker the Squirrel|Conker]], [[rarewiki:Joanna Dark|Joanna Dark]], and [[rarewiki:Kameo|Kameo]].

Like the [[Jinjo Village]] from ''[[Banjo-Tooie]]'', Showdown Town also has housing for the different [[Jinjo]] variants. Furthermore, Showdown Town also has a verse of the [[Jinjo Village]] theme.

===Districts===
====Town Square====
The '''Town Square''' is the main, central area of Showdown Town. It contains Mumbo's Motors, the Jiggy Bank, the Nutty Acres game world doors, Humba Wumba's shop, Bottles' Tourist Information Kiosk, and [[L.O.G.'s Video Game Factory]]. It is also where the portal to Spiral Mountain is located, and it towers over the rest of the town, in the center of a hill. [[Gruntilda]] and [[Piddles]] also hang out in the area. This is where the [[Act Door]]s to [[Nutty Acres]] and the downloadable [[L.O.G.'s Lost Challenges]] are located, the latter behind Mumbo's Motors.

====Theater District====
The '''Theater District''' is the lowest part of Showdown Town. For the most part, Theater District is a narrow area surrounded by very tall buildings. There are headless statues that appear to be holding out a Mumbo skull. This is also where the Act Doors to [[LOGBOX 720]] are located, in an area painted to look forested.

====Lakeshore====
The '''Lakeshore''' is an area with a large lake, [[Trophy Thomas]]'s home, and a boathouse featuring the Act Doors to [[Banjoland]]. It is directly adjacent to the Uptown and is above Town Square. Trophy Thomas is found in his house, and Banjo and Kazooie can talk to him to go directly to missions.

====Docks====
The '''Docks''', as its name suggests, is where the docks are located. It is a large area with many ships and cranes, a construction site with the Act Doors to [[Jiggoseum]], Boggy's Gym, and the Police Station. A verse of [[Rusty Bucket Bay]] is heard in this area.

====Seaside====
The '''Seaside''' is just on the ocean shore, as its name suggests. This area contains the pier, Klungo's Arcade, King Jingaling's Bingo Palace, a lighthouse, and a small island just offshore. Jolly Dodger can be found here, pawning his dubiously-obtained Jiggies. It is also where the [[Saucer of Peril]] is located.

====Uptown====
The '''Uptown''' is the upper area of the Seaside. It has an elevated, closed-off neighborhood populated by the richer denizens of Showdown Town. Banjo and Kazooie can access [[Terrarium of Terror]]'s Act Doors from here. [[Captain Blubber]] is found just outside the main Uptown area, covered in dirt after crashing the Saucer of Peril in the Seaside. Banjo and Kazooie can buy a [[Trapdoor Tower]] combination from him.

===Jiggies===
Showdown Town has a total of ten Jiggys. Five of them can be purchased from Jolly Dodger. Although each of them have a unique name, they are indifferent from other Jiggies.

#'''Mysterious Glow''': Purchase from Jolly Dodger for 25 Notes.
#'''Big Banker''': Purchase from Jolly Dodger for 50 Notes.
#'''Mr. Jiggywiggy''': Purchase from Jolly Dodger for 75 Notes.
#'''Puzzling Wonder''': Purchase from Jolly Dodger for 100 Notes.
#'''Jiggytastic''': Purchase from Jolly Dodger for 125 Notes.

The five other Jiggies are each obtained by activating one of the [[Jiggy Tamper Switch]]es, which adds a Jiggy into the Jiggy Bank.

#On top of the Lord of Games' Video Game Factory. The switch only activates if Banjo and Kazooie earn at least one more Jiggy.
#In the water beneath Klungo's Arcade.
#In a cave beneath the lighthouse on the Seaside.
#In an underwater tunnel beneath the hill with L.O.G.'s factory. It can be accessed from an underwater tunnel on the bottom of the hill that will open once the trolley is equipped with the Scuba Seat.
#On a small balcony in the Uptown district. To get it, Banjo must climb a wire to the top of the buildings and down another from the other side of the building.

==Trivia==
*According to [[Steve Mayles]], Showdown Town's design was largely influenced by the coastal towns of {{wp|Tenby}} in west {{wp|Wales}}, {{wp|United Kingdom}} and {{wp|Saint Malo}} in {{wp|Brittany}}, on the north coast of {{wp|France}}.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20101119221050/http://banjo-kazooie.com/News/DevDiaries/4.htm Banjo Dev Diary 4: Building the Hub, Pt. 1]</ref>
*During the ''"12 Questions of Christmas"'' thread on The Rare Witch Project Forums, where developer [[Gregg Mayles]] answered fan questions about the game as a 2007 Christmas treat, he answered a question about the game's hub world, stating: "You've seen Grunty's Lair and Isle o' Hags, now get ready for "Conflagration Violent."<ref>[http://web.archive.org/web/20080304103851/http://www.rarewitchproject.com/forums/showpost.php?p=259005&postcount=183 The Rare Witch Project Forums - View Single Post - The 12 Questions of Christmas (Wayback Machine)]</ref> It is possible that "Conflagration Violent" is an anagram for "Confrontation Village," which is synonym for "Showdown Town" itself.
