Did you get it? I got it today (Nov 12,2008) through electronic mail. I will be playing.
Banjo-Kazooie
Game » consists of 9 releases. Released Jun 29, 1998
Play as lovable goofball Banjo the bear and his bird pal Kazooie in the first of many adventures as they collect valuable "Jiggies" in order to face the vile witch, Gruntilda and save Banjo's sister Tooty.
I got my Banjo-Kazooie for XBLA
I'm not getting Nuts and Bolts until it goes down in price and then I'll get it used with my edge card so no BK yet. I'll DL eventually though.
"I did not. Damn Amazon hasnt even shipped my game yet. Sent them a nasty email though."Same here. The least they could do is e-mail us our codes while we wait for Nuts and Bolts to ship, or offer us some explanation as to why our game hasn't even left the warehouse yet. This will be the last time I pre-order anything from Amazon -- very disappointing service.
"TheGTAvaccine said:Same here as well. It'd be nice if they could've email me my B-K 1 code. That'd actually be nice. I want to play the original before the 360 one, but i know I won't if I have the new one."I did not. Damn Amazon hasnt even shipped my game yet. Sent them a nasty email though."Same here.

"Fosssil said:Yeah, I wanted to play the first one before the new one as well. I even chose the "Super Saver Free" shipping that takes longer to deliver so I could play the original game while I waited for Nuts and Bolts, but since Amazon hasn't sent the code yet I basically shot myself in the foot by not choosing the normal shipping."TheGTAvaccine said:Same here as well.

"TheGTAvaccine said:Hmmm, good to hear I'm not an isolated case. It's weird though, Amazon has been pretty damn good to me in the past."I did not. Damn Amazon hasnt even shipped my game yet.

Its kind of a bummer though, that not only does your game not come on release day, but you have to wait five days for your bonus codes.
"I already beat it...on Tuesday. I really got sucked into it. It makes me excited for Banjo-Tooie. That other Banjo game...doesn't really count."Banjo-Tooie is my favorite, so i'm definitely more excited for that.
"HandsomeDead said:To get the game, Nuts & Bolts, in the post and get my XBLA code with it. And, as i'm typing, the mail came and there was no game there. What a terrible start to the day."I'm still waiting for the post."Eh? ...do you mean your code, or some magical post where someone "gives away" the code in a "first come" thread..."
Right, yeah. Sorry if there was a confusion with my lingo. How did you get your code though if you didn't get the game?
"I just got this morning through my Amazon pre-order (sent 4AM CST). I downloaded it, but I haven't really played it yet...never played the game before so I'm really looking forward to it!"
Your about to play one of the most awesome platform games ever!, it wont take you long to see why. Banjo is full to the brim with playability and charm.
EnjoY :D
Hopefully my copy of Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts will be arriving in the mail sometime today with the code for Banjo-Kazooie.
"I can't wait to give this game a go, but I want to finish Gears 2 SP first..."
Same with me, except my game that I have to finish first is Far Cry 2. I don't like playing multiple games at once...
I was very relieved when I woke up this morning to find my Amazon pre-order code had arrived. I won't even be able to download it until Saturday since I don't have my 360 at my school dorm, but I can manage knowing the code is safely tucked away in my inbox.
I absolutely love the first BK, one of my top 10 games, and the first time I played it was only 3 and a half years ago. So anyone who is checking it out for the first time is definitely gonna have a blast. It has aged very well.
"tmontana1004 said:If you pre-ordered it, the free XBLA game negates the price to $25, essentially."I'm not getting Nuts and Bolts until it goes down in price and then I'll get it used with my edge card so no BK yet. I'll DL eventually though."The game is $40 now. How much cheaper do you want it to be?"
I never got the code. I called Gamestop earlier today and they said I'd get it sometime today in an email, so that's good. If you can't tell by my avatar, yeah, it's one of my all-time favorite games. Possibly 2nd or 3rd overall. I'm ashamed to admit I never bought the game, so when I heard about the preorder deal, I jumped right on it.
Is Banjo Kazooie being released later today? I've checked around online and some sites aka Shitstop claim that it won't be released till December.
