The mystery of the secret eggs and the key

Well,tomorrow is an important day for Banjo Kazooie fans abroad.For those of you that don't know,a brand new (and the first) trailer for Banjo-Tooie will be released,promised by Rare to be the a piece to the puzzle of the one mystery plagueing the community for close to 10 years:

What was Stop 'n' Swop?

For those of you wondering what the crap I just said and why "Swap" was misspelled,let me enlighten you (in spoiler tags)

[spoiler] Upon Collecting all 100 Jigsaw pieces in the original Banjo-Kazooie,the titular pair's ally Mumbo Jumbo the Shaman showed them three magic photographs featuring 3 mysterious items that the player couldn't reach: A pink egg,a Blue Egg and a key made of Ice.Mumbo assured the two that answers to this riddle would arrive with the game's sequel,Banjo Tooie.But,as fate would have it,they did not.Due to hardware modifications inbetween the games' releases,the process required for this feature to work was impossible.The feature was dropped and left gamers baffled.The three items existed,but in a different form and not acquired through the process proper.After a pair of disgruntled fans (one a founder of the Rare Witch Project website) they discovered something shocking,there were not 3 eggs (there was a third egg that players could interact with in 'Tooie.) But Six,further deepening the mystery. [/spoiler]

The original plan having failed and been left a mystery,I and other Rabid fans of the games have clawed at every secret concerning it,but to little avail.Last year,with the release of both Banjo-Kazooie and N&B,the 7 Items of SnS were made available for the first time to players that had played both games.With the Official announcement of a Banjo-Tooie rerelease,and the promise of a working Stop 'n' Swop,the mystery may finally be solved...

OR WILL IT!? :twisted:

I jest,but I hope this nonsense is laid to rest,so I can finally get to sleep.

Was this Blog filler? Kind of,but I intend to discuss the trailer tomorrow.You Xbox Live Users and Youtube snoopers best be ready!*goes mad* (the trailer's free,as you probably expected.)

Oh yes,just bought Bioshock today,if you didn't care about the rest of this garbage.
