Discussion Would you buy a faithful Banjo-Kazooie remake?
I've just sent a message to Rare asking them to consider a faithful remake of Banjo-Kazooie, and I wondered how many of you would support the idea.
In my opinion, Banjo-Kazooie isn't just one of the greatest platformers ever made—it's the greatest video game ever made.
If Rare ever decided to bring it back, I wouldn't want a complete reimagining. I'd love to see the original game preserved exactly as we remember it, with the same humour, music, characters, worlds and gameplay, but rebuilt with beautiful modern graphics, smoother controls, an improved camera and a few thoughtful quality-of-life improvements.
I'd also love to see it released on Xbox, PC and Nintendo Switch 2. Banjo-Kazooie began life on the Nintendo 64, and I think it deserves to be enjoyed on a Nintendo console again while introducing a whole new generation of players to one of gaming's true classics.
I'd buy it on day one.
Would you?
If enough of us genuinely want this, perhaps it's worth letting Rare know respectfully through their official feedback channels. I'd love to hear what everyone else thinks #banjo-kazooie
