Microsoft announced today that by pre-ordering Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts, you will get a free redeemable code for the original Banjo-Kazooie on Xbox LIVE Arcade weeks before the game is available to everyone else for purchase.
Remember "Stop N' Swap?" It's making a comeback: your accomplishments in the new game will nab you extra content in the XBLA game. Better yet, Nuts & Bolts has been confirmed to be priced at $39.99 when it drops later this year.
Also revealed today is the Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts in-game world, "Jiggoseum." As seen in the embedded video above, it's an Olympic-sized stadium with 17 different challenges for Banjo and Kazooie to beat.
Now that we know Nuts & Bolts will not only be cheap, but include an incredible incentive to pre-order, are you going to cave in? I know I am.

"bitches love sandcastles" ... yet, there is no sandcastle in that photo. We may never truly understand his ways.

We shall see.
Bring this to England and I will properly cream my pants
The miser in me appreciates the low cost and expansion of genres beyond highly prominent, well-marketed FPS' and racers.
All these breaking of pricing standards as of late... it's blowin my mind!
also, does it matter where you preorder it or can i do it up anywhere?
I rather get a free pair of huge ass Yellow Banjo shorts as a bouns than that game.
I was most likely going to pick up Nuts & Bolts anyway, this just sweetens the deal.
But Kif hit the nail on the head - does anyone know if this is coming to the UK?
