why would they make an entire level for that...

Don't worry...SNS II will be dropped because next Banjo will release on 720 so there won't be way to transfer data from BT XBLA. There will be tons of SNS II references in Rare future games.

...And this is exactly what Rare wants us to do, discuss SNS II in the same way that we discussed SNS I. Oh, and BanjoPL, it's more than likely that Microsoft will make 360 hard drives work on 720s, otherwise they're going to get a lot of lip from people who have 120GB hard drives, and most things in this day and age are backwards compatible, I wouldn't be surprised if 720s could run 360 games in the same way as a 360 can run Xbox Original games.

I think sns II is really a way to give us the better rewards that we wish the original would've given us. I mean, they wouldn't of done such things and pretended it was the original for tooie, cuz that's too much work for a port. But a brand new game could quite easily possess quite extravagent prizes.

I feel they like to use it as a publicity...but at the same time they do it for us...

think about it, besides the franchise itself, Stop N Swop has got millions of banjo fans tougether just for the fact to reveal the secrets that this feature once hold (or never hold...depending on your own opinions) so now that it's finally over...that there's nothing else to say about it....maybe rare wanted to let a bit of that "mystery2 still alive...even if not as strong....

sns2 was just them saying "hmm, lets give them bs rewards, giving us more time to think and code the better rewards, and make them even harder to get, while causing more speculation and make people freak out again". youre all playing right into their hands lol.

on a second question, whats this orange egg?

publicity is always good. I think Rare get's a laugh at how we go on about SnS. On that note, I think it has been a headache for the Rare Staff, and most of all the Banjo Team. SnS 2 has possibilities, but Rare needs to use this chance to make up for the weak idea's that we have seen already(Although some were cool) But like the extra vehicle parts in NaB with BKXBL SnS, uhg, a little disappointing.

It's just something that the fans used to make the older games seem better than they actually are, I think. I really don't understand why people were upset with the rewards in Tooie XBLA, Stop n' Swap was never meant to be anything huge, just a reward for buying both Kazooie & Tooie and collecting items in Kazooie. People eventually blew it all out of preportion because.... I don't know.
