The original ''[[Banjo-Kazooie]]'' website was launched sometime in 1998, possibly before the release of the actual game, judging by the fact several of the images found on the site were from the beta version of the game. The site not only had an option to be displayed in Spanish but there was many information about the game and every world in the ame received its own page with information on how to get to the certain world, what moves are learned and several hints. At the bottom of each world page was a question about the certain world with three wrong answers (often humorous) and one right answer. | The original ''[[Banjo-Kazooie]]'' website was launched sometime in 1998, possibly before the release of the actual game, judging by the fact several of the images found on the site were from the beta version of the game.

This continued for many years to come until 2008 when Nuts & Bolts was released. | Early 2002, Nintendo shut down the site and made banjo-kazooie.com a redirect to the Nintendo website article about the game.
