Banjo: “This is a new concept in games”

By Patrick Garratt

Banjo dev boss Salvatore Fileccia has detailed the thinking bahind Banjo Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts in a new interview with GamerScoreBlog, calling the reinvention a “new concept in games.”

“This is not just a platformer,” he said. “Obviously, Banjo has a deep history in platformers, and part of that is in the game, so we have everything there from the original Banjos: the collecting, the puzzle-solving and that sort of thing.

“This is a new concept in games. Come and try it. We’re sure everyone’s going to find it fun. It’s not just the platforming. It’s user-generated content. It’s literally the kind of game you can play the way you want to play, rather than the way the designer wanted you to play.”
