Today on Game History Secrets we talk about the lost Banjo-Kazooie platformer for the Nintendo Game Boy Color, which was planned to release as Banjo Kazooie: Grunty’s Curse.

Not a fan of Liam's because of Twitter stuff but I'll admit his content is informative and arguably has some insider knowledge.

This game is pretty impressive. Very Banjo-like, and it's running on a GameBoy Advance??

Banjo Pilot Voxel version was the real lost of the Banjo-Kazooie license.

Its a shame because the prototypes run and look amazing. And the final Diddy Kong Racing Banjo-Pilot was just an above average racing game.

You forgot to say whether he was right, though.

Welcome (back) L LiamR I very much enjoy your content :). In the end, I am glad that not much was lost in terms of Banjo GBC here. It wa smerely a concept and did not go into production. Other Rare games suffered a worse fate. I wonder how far Twelve Tales got before it got scrapped..
 
I always enjoy watching L LiamR 's and DYKGaming video content (as well as several others on YouTube focusing on video game trivia, secrets and retrospectives). Keep up the great work, guys!
