Yay! I'm now playing Banjo Kazooie...complete with Microsoft GameStudios logos covering all the old Nintendo logos...
It's a little odd playing it with the 360 controller...but seeing as Banjo is practically Super Mario 64 (to which I believe the N64 controller was designed for) there's bound to be a slight transitional phase which I'm sure I'll be past shortly.
I still love this game like I did the original! And although only a minor upgrade I look forward to tackling those achievements.

I've completed it, got all the achievements and just need to find the remaining 4 swap & shop items now...
Thoroughly enjoyed this XBLA game :D
One question though, are all the 'hidden' easter egg things still in there? The giant ice-key and so forth or have these actually been implemented into the game as was the original plan with banjo-tooie?
When you complete Banjo Kazooie and go through the spiel with Mumbo at the end the characters even make a joke about how they weren't used originally. Rare seem to like their humour - in the brief time I've played N&B so far they've joked about Ghoulies poor sales and how Mario & Luigi are better than Banjo & Kazooie.
Apparently they unlock vehicle parts in N&B - though I'm yet to encounter that.
