It seems to me that the linkage between BK and DK64 was most likely a feasibilty test by Rare. If they were able to successfully swop the ice key from one game to the other, then it was a go for the BK - BT connection. They had to test somewhere, and DK64 was the logical test candidate in the development timeline. BT development wasn't even started until summer 1998, as we were told in the infamous Tepid Seat interview (Q34).
