How long was it before Rare released the OO7 push button codes? 4 years! SNS is bigger and better than those codes, so it would make sense to wait much longer!

Rare only released the 007 Button codes after Dr Ian hacked them out. They more than likely would not have released them otherwise. I'm not sure why they didn't do the same for The RWP's hacked out sandcastle codes......or accept their release or existence to public...

Maybe because the 007 codes had utility in the game, and Rare admitted that these codes work. This is not the case from the SnS codes, Rare only put them in the game for something, but they cancelled, and they don't want to admit that the eggs and ice key are usseles, maybe they had an utility but not yet.

Useless? If they were useless, they wouldn't have showed them in the 100% completion ending sequence in B-K! I'm telling ya, I really think SNS is still there! There are still 3 mysterious eggs that we have no idea what they do! And you can't say it's because they didn't show them in the pictures at the end. Why? Because the yellow egg is in B-T! Haven't you guys ever wondered about Jiggywiggy's Super Special Challenge? Surely there's more to it than just trying to set a high score for yourself! Perhaps it has to be beaten in a certain amount of time. Maybe Jiggywiggy will perform one last action and blast open those doors by Grunty's Industries. I've beaten it in 63 seconds. And I KNOW it can be done faster! Just have to make fewer mistakes!

I believe people (maybe us at RWP as well) have set timer to 0 seconds and beaten it, and it's nothing different.

But why give up? Rare has never once said that SNS was dropped. Now there was one time when Rare said that SNS is in fact still in the games, but that EVERYTHING had to first be obtained in B-T. Perhaps there is an item or something very secretly hidden away in B-T. Afterall, the game is terribly huge!

Speaking of eggs, hacking has shown us that it's unlikely for anything to happen with the BK eggs in BT. The "base" egg image that was used in BK for the eggs (quick color change when you want a new egg) is present in the NTSC version of BT...but not the PAL version, which is usually somewhat "cleaned up." Also, what's the time limit on the Super Special Challenge? 90 seconds? If so, then I've beaten it in about 54 or so (in my BT prime), and nothing special happened. A lot of people think SNS is "still there," but as the years go by, the idea is looking much, much sicker.

Sicker to some! But still, what about the Bottles' Revenge thing? At one point it was playable, but Rare just suddenly removes it from the game after having shown it at E3? Why would they do that? The games are just utterly mysterious and keep me going! I've found some things that you guys probably haven't found! And it's not from hacking either! I will have a Stop N Swop Station at my site in the B-K section. You'll be able to see my findings there.

As for BR, it might still be in the game. But scroll up and read my "programmer's point of view" bit in my previous post. That could apply to BR, and Rare just forgot/didn't have time to remove DB's icon from the icon list. It could very well have been removed for one simple reason: framerate. Two-player BT would be cool, but the framerate would be ludicrously awful in the bigger levels. If the BT Cp Rare Witch Video ever goes back online, download it and you'll see what I mean. (I'd upload it to another server and link it here, but I'm not sure how big that would go over.) Being perfectionists, Rare wouldn't sit still with that. In nearly three years, I've seen a lot of people say they've "found stuff"...

Well, I've said this before (maybe not here) but I think that Rare is doing remakes of
B-K and B-T. But this time we would all know that SNS works and Bottles Revenge would in fact be implemented and we would know about it! And the biggest hint we have of that is the Xbox cases that appeared in Grabbed by the Ghoulies! |

Its only a joke to anger us, I think, or maybe is a hint for something, but ¡¡6 years!! its a lot of time, and the N64 is out. Maybe Rare is going to do remakes with some conection, but is not the same.

Oh no, it certainly won't be the same. But that means Rare has also had 6 years to come up with something even bigger and better! They would be sure and reward us for such a long wait!!

The reason the Ice Key text was in DK64 is because they re-used the BK engine for DK.
You can also pull up things from Goldeneye in Perfect Dark because they re-used the engine. |
