If you’re a fan of the Banjo Kazooie series (or if you just like good games in general) you’ll be ecstatic to know that Rare has a great deal for you- if you preorder Banjo Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts, you’ll also get a download code for the Xbox Live Arcade port Banjo Kazooie. Can I get a ‘aw yeah’?

You’ll also be pleased to know that Rare isn’t going with the standard $60 price tag for current gen games, and that the game will be released stateside on November 14th for $40 bucks. Rare has also attached this price to Viva Pinata: Trouble in Paradise, which will be released in North America September 3nd, and Europe September 5th.

After the jump, I’ve attached new images from Nuts & Bolts’s Jiggoseum, in which players can take part in Olympic-esque events. Make sure to make your way out to your local game store to preorder Nuts & Bolts before the codes run out! Go go go!
