However, his first appearance is in ''[[Diddy Kong Racing]]'', in which he is a playable character to promote his then-upcoming title, ''{{wp|Banjo-Kazooie (video game)|Banjo-Kazooie}}''. He is a honey bear with light-brown fur, tan skin, blue eyes, and a black nose, and he wears a shark-tooth necklace, yellow shorts, and a blue backpack that houses Kazooie. | ||
Banjo is owned by [[Rare Ltd.]], a former second-party developer for [[Nintendo]]. In 2002, Rare was sold to {{wp|Microsoft}}, and the rights of Banjo, Kazooie and [[Conker]] were transferred to the company in exchange for Nintendo keeping Rare's ''[[Donkey Kong (franchise)|Donkey Kong]]'' additions. | |||

The trailer references the connection between the ''Banjo-Kazooie'' and ''Donkey Kong'' franchises, as both were managed by [[Rare Ltd.|Rareware]] in the 1990s. The trailer could also be referencing the fact that Banjo's first in-game appearance was in a ''Donkey Kong'' series game, ''[[Diddy Kong Racing]]''. The English tagline "Banjo-Kazooie are Raring to Go!" is a reference to Rareware as well. Banjo and Kazooie appear in [[Sephiroth]]'s reveal trailer, and are shocked to see him descend from the sky. | The trailer references the connection between the ''Banjo-Kazooie'' and ''Donkey Kong'' franchises, as both were managed by [[Rare Ltd.|Rareware]] in the 1990s.

Banjo & Kazooie's moveset and appearances are directly pulled from their two Nintendo 64 titles, ''Banjo-Kazooie'' and ''[[jiggywikki:Banjo-Tooie|Banjo-Tooie]]'', though they also sport a few original attacks. [[Spiral Mountain]], the location of their home, serves as the representation for their stage. Regarding weight, Banjo & Kazooie are collectively a heavyweight, being heavier than [[Link]], [[Yoshi]], [[Captain Falcon]], [[Mii Gunner]], and [[Min Min]], but lighter than Wario, [[Ike]], [[Ridley]], [[Simon Belmont|Simon]], and [[Richter Belmont|Richter]], while having the same weight as [[Solid Snake|Snake]] and [[R.O.B.]] | Banjo & Kazooie's moveset and appearances are directly pulled from their two Nintendo 64 titles, ''Banjo-Kazooie'' and ''[[jiggywikki:Banjo-Tooie|Banjo-Tooie]]'', though they also sport a few original attacks.

The move involves the duo using a Shock Spring Pad that spontaneously appears under them, to launch themselves upwards into the air. The pad then acts like [[Sonic|Sonic the Hedgehog]]'s [[Sonic#Spring Jump|Spring Jump]] move, in the sense the pad falls downwards (if the duo uses the move in midair), which can hurt any opponent that comes in contact with it. The move can be slightly charged for a slight increase in jump height. The move originates from ''Banjo-Kazooie''. | ||
