Thinking about the BT guide in Grabbed by the Ghoulies:

"Conker: Live and Uncut, one of Rare's new titles on X-Box, will feature an expanded version of the original game, Conker's Bad Fur Day. It will include new chapters, many of the scenes rumoured to have been vetoed by Nintendo, and the profanity would presumably be left in uncensored. All well and good that is, but this is a Banjo site, so how does this relate? Rare decided to reuse one of its games, so it's possible that it might for Banjo-Tooie.
An image from Grabbed by the Ghoulies shows a couple Banjo-Tooie strategy guides stuffed into a bottom drawer. Developed by the Banjo team, Grabbed by the Ghoulies also has ghoulish trophy heads of Banjo, Kazooie, and Conga, but the strategy guide suggests more than just a fun crossover between Rare games. I checked around and neither Prima nor Nintendo's guides look like the one shown in the drawer. The top of the guide looks green and black in the screenshot and in the top right of the guide it looks like X-Box's trademark X encased in a circle. Now that might not be significant in the least seeing that MGS now owns the Banjo franchise and putting Nintendo's logo in there would be folly. Or, could it be a taste of "Banjo-Threeie?" Since Rare is doing CBFD over as Conker: Live and Uncut without the restraints of Nintendo, Rare might do the same thing for other franchises, such as Banjo. So then I checked out what X-Box guides look like, and the top of that Halo guide looks pretty similar to the Tooie guide. Personally, if Rare remade any games in the Banjo series I'd like it to be Banjo-Kazooie, not Tooie.
If it were remade, what would Banjo-Tooie Uncut include? Maybe some better graphics, a live hookup, and some more secrets. Gruntilda, unlike in Banjo-Kazooie, was a virtual no-show in Tooie save cutscenes, so maybe her role would be expanded. Banjo-Tooie wasn't a very adult sort of game like CBFD was and I can't see anything being censored from it, so maybe it's just an easter egg. I hope Tooie isn't remade, but then I'm just thinking outloud here."
