The visuals for this game are really nifty-looking but I have never been less interested in a title that uses the word "jiggy" so much.
PASS.

A couple of important pieces of news were in this release from Microsoft. First, if you pre-order Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts, you will get a redeem code for a free copy of Banjo-Kazooie on XBLA. The second piece is that Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts will retail for only $39.99 as has been speculated.
Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts Pre-orders Include Free Redeem Code and Early Access to Xbox LIVE Arcade Game
Players receive a free Banjo-Kazooie Xbox LIVE Arcade redeem code with pre-order at participating retailers, and new game world Jiggoseum brings the Olympic spirit to Banjos next adventure
Ready your spring-loaded propeller boat and fasten your seatbelt, Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts is hitting U.S. store shelves on November 14, and pre-orders begin today. For the retail price of $39.99, those who pre-order at participating retailers will get in on all the Banjo fun right off the starting line, and as a special bonus, will also receive a free download code for the original Banjo-Kazooie, launching on Xbox LIVE Arcade later this fall.
As Kazooie likes to say, The early bird gets the worm. Since the original Banjo-Kazooie will not debut on Xbox LIVE Arcade until a couple weeks after Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts releases, pre-ordering the game gives you a two-week head start on the Arcade title and the opportunity to take advantage of Stop N Swop before anyone else. Stop N Swop rewards players accomplishments in the new game with extra content and features in the Xbox LIVE Arcade game, giving fans who pre-order Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts the chance to experience more Banjo action than ever.
Additionally, everyones favorite bear and bird duo has Olympic fever. What do Banjo and Beijing have in common? The newly revealed game world Jiggoseum (formerly dubbed World of Sports) will have you taking on a series of Olympic-inspired events for the jiggy gold!
This giant stadium evokes themes of ancient Rome and Greece with modern day sports activities. The Jiggoseum, common stomping ground for Mr. Fit and Trophy Thomas, will include 17 challenges to test Banjos (and his contraptions) athletic abilities. In order to successfully complete his adventure in this world, Banjo must transport the Olympic Torch across a large body of water to help Captain Blubber light the Olympic Cauldron. A boat may seem like the vehicle of choice for the job but with tons of options, its up to the player to decide.
