1. The Base Egg (the eggs you collected in Banjo-Kazooie). Thats enough right there to prove they had been working on it.
2. They mentioned somewhere(I think mundorare.com) that the "Swap-code" had been implemented at one point. Was later taken out after the N64's RDRAM chip change.

After all, I'd think the un-secret features would be a lot more important than the ones that nobody would see. In addition, they could have also been talking about production of the trigger that sent/recieved items. It's much easier to remove/hide programming code than it is a physical entity, after all. (at least that's the impression Rare seems to give.)

1. The "SNS-Code" was actually implemented into BT at one point. Was later taken out because the newer N64's that were released had RAM chips that couldn't hold data after the system was powered down long enough. Originally you had about...10 - 20 secs to swap, it was reduced to about 3 seconds after the RAM was changed, so...
