List of Banjo profiles and statistics

This is a list of profiles and statistics for Banjo.

Diddy Kong Racing

 * Manual profile: "(Low acceleration, heavy weight, good handling, high top speed) Even before the start of his future partnership with Kazooie, Banjo isn't one to turn down the chance of an adventure. So when Squawks brings the message from his pal Diddy Kong, the Honey Bear stuffs a few things into his trusty backpack and takes to his heels."
 * Official Nintendo Player's Guide profile: "When Squawks brought Diddy's call for help, Banjo didn't hestitate 'n dash; he strapped on his trusty backpack and hit the road immediately. He has also agreed to take on a totally different adventure with his partner, Kazooie, so this busy bear will have a lot to keep him occupied for some time to come."

Banjo-Kazooie

 * Manual profile: "A Honey Bear with a love of sleeping, swimming and even dancing when the mood takes him, Banjo has found life to be just too interesting for it's own good since he found himself 'adopted' by Kazooie. His Breegull friend just seems to attract trouble like a magnet..."

Banjo-Tooie

 * Manual profile: "As quiet and polite as Kazooie is loud and rude, Banjo the Honey Bear prefers the quiet life to the thrill of adventure sought by his Breegull partner. Still, this old bear will have to learn new tricks once Kazooie leaves his backpack and goes it alone..."

Banjo-Kazooie: Grunty's Revenge

Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts

 * Manual profile: "Banjo is a heroic honey bear, at least he was when he was in top shape. Kind of a sore subject, really. Banjo believes strongly in the time-honored maxim "Walk softly and carry a large bird stuffed into a backpack.""

Viva Piñata

 * Breegull Carrier description: "Perfect for transporting lazy Breegulls about the place, if you're daft enough in the first place to agree to it."
 * Bird and Bear Statue description: "This statue comes with a warranty - 'Guaranteed to keep witches at bay'. That isn't much of a promise, when was the last time you saw a witch? Oh, I see, that means it's already working."

Viva Piñata: Trouble in Paradise

 * Breegull Carrier description: "Perfect for transporting lazy Breegulls about the place, if you're daft enough in the first place to agree to it."
 * Bird and Bear Statue description: "This statue comes with a warranty - 'Guaranteed to keep witches at bay'. That isn't much of a promise, when was the last time you saw a witch? Oh, I see, that means it's already working."
 * Shark Tooth Necklace description: "A Fizzlybear once found one of these washed up on the shore of nearby Treasure Trove Cove. He told his friends he wrestled it from the jaw of a Snacker himself."

Sonic & Sega All-Stars Racing with Banjo-Kazooie

 * Species: Honey Bear
 * 1st appearance: Diddy Kong Racing (1997)
 * Likes: Kazooie
 * Skills: Plays the banjo
 * Vehicle: Bolt Bucket
 * All-Star Move: Jiggy Rain
 * Description: "Banjo and Kazooie are an adventurous bear and bird duo, always on hand to thwart the schemes of their nemesis, the rhyming hag Gruntilda.

''Banjo himself is a big, amiable Honey Bear, polite and well-mannered—in stark contrast to the Red-Crested Breegull Kazooie who lives in his backpack. Loud, sarcastic and rude, Kazooie's inability to keep her beak shut often lands the pair in trouble...''

Together they race in the Bolt Bucket, a quirky vehicle custom-built by their longstanding ally (and a real wizard in the garage) Mumbo Jumbo."

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate

 * Website profile (shared with Kazooie): "The missing piece of the puzzle is found as Banjo & Kazooie join Super Smash Bros. Ultimate as a playable fighter! With Banjo’s bare hands to bruise rivals up close and Kazooie’s egg-cellent shooting skills, your rivals will be singing the blues in no time. For their Final Smash, these perfect partners call upon a flock of Jinjos and the Mighty Jinjonator to deal the final blow to any “feeble jerk” that may stand in their way!"


 * amiibo (shared with Kazooie): "The stars of the classic Banjo-Kazooie series, this bear and bird duo enjoyed great critical acclaim on their quests to stop the evil witch Gruntilda, while earning the support of a generation of gamers."

Palutena's Guidance
Banjo & Kazooie share this stock conversation with all other Fighters Pass characters. It was originally used for Mewtwo, Lucas, Roy, Ryu, Cloud, Corrin, and Bayonetta in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, who are downloadable fighters in that game.
 * Pit: Who is THAT?
 * Palutena: I have no data on this fighter. I can't believe it!
 * Viridi: It must be an intruder from another dimension!
 * Pit: Whoever it is, the goal remains the same: to fight and win!
