====''Dream: Land of Giants'' | ===''Donkey Kong 64''=== | ||
An early screenshot of ''[[mariowiki:Donkey Kong 64|Donkey Kong 64]]'' revealed that Banjo and Kazooie's heads would appear on a shower stall in Donkey Kong's Treehouse. | |||
===''Dream: Land of Giants''=== | |||
Banjo was originally planned as a supporting character in the cancelled {{wp|Super Nintendo Entertainment System}} game, ''[[Dream: Land of Giants]]''. Shortly shifting development to the [[Nintendo 64]], the developers felt the main character, [[Edson]], was "losing his edge." One of their considerations for a main character was a rabbit, but they eventually decided on Banjo. Early sketches showed Banjo with a sword and another in a sleeveless shirt. | Banjo was originally planned as a supporting character in the cancelled {{wp|Super Nintendo Entertainment System}} game, ''[[Dream: Land of Giants]]''.
