N&B+BK will have the 10 year old SNS

Ok, people have been saying that nuts and bolts will have some sort of different SNS that is different from the way it was 10 years ago.

Im pleased to say, the way to unlock SNS and the secrets it will reveal will be closer than we assumed...WP: Stop 'n' Swop is actually finally working after 10 years?

GM: There's kind of a version of Stop 'n' Swop. I mean, anyone that follows it to the degree that some of the fans have will know that obviously the original Stop 'n' Swop was impossible to do because of the hardware, different types of hardware. We've brought Stop 'n' Swop back to life and kind of tried to get it as close to what it would have been all those years ago. It's just something for the fans, and it ties the games neatly together for those people, and those who are playing the original Banjo on Xbox Live Arcade will be able to find a few new bits and pieces in Nuts & Bolts that people who don't, won't. It's just a nice addition to have, and I think for some people, it'll just be a nice that we've actually tied up a few loose ends after 10 years.

Yes, i thought it would be something completely different! So, I'm not understanding something, Is he saying that SNS is vehicle parts, or are those parts something different you get just for playing B-K XBLA and is not SNS?

No, it is something completely different than what it originally was. It originally was meant to connect BK and BT, but now it connects BK and BK:N&B. It doesn't tie up the lose endsthe same way it originally was supposed to.

Let me explain...

People want to know what the secret items would unlock. Which is not something that Nuts N Bolts will explain with it's secret vehicle parts.

What people want to know is:

a) The prizes (I personally believe they were what we got in BT already.)
b) How were we to obtain the SC codes in Banjo-Tooie.

Those are loose ends that we probably can't tie up unless Rare gives us the answer in Nuts N Bolts or Banjo-Tooie. At the moment. It looks like neither of those will be explained in NB.

Right here he states that it will be slightly different because of the way they will do it due to the hardware. This time they will have to use Save Files instead of Ram.

Basically XBLA users will be able to unlock extra secrets (vehicle parts) in NB that people without can't. They are just reviving the concept of being able to Share data between Game A and Game B by completing certain tasks in each game that affect the other. They just want to demonstrate for the people who don't already know, how it would be done.

Ok, so let me get this straight: The original SNS content will be in the form of vehicle parts in Nuts & Bolts?
