LOL, I wouldn't know, as I'm not that "techy"-so obviously my grasp on Stop 'N' Swop wouldn't be as good as, say, yours-but no, I was referring to the N64's RDRAM-I guess
-I assumed that it originally held extra memory for a short amount of time and that the Stop 'N' Swop items' text would activate the Stop 'N' Swop items in Banjo-Tooie, but when Nintendo changed it, it couldn't anymore, so Rare decided to switch to the expansion pak as a source for copying the text into it's memory for a limited time (though I don't know if that's even possible).
Hm, guess my theory wasn't as sensible as I would have hoped..
