Trivia

• Banjo-Pilot was originally going to be called Diddy Kong Pilot and feature characters from the Donkey Kong Country series of games. Due to the Microsoft buyout of Rare in 2002, the Donkey Kong license was dropped and replaced with the Banjo-Kazooie license, which is owned by Rare. Ironically, the character of Banjo originally appeared in the Nintendo 64 racing game Diddy Kong Racing, of which Diddy Kong Pilot was going to be a pseudo-sequel to.
• At one point early in development, Banjo-Pilot was going to be titled Banjo-Kazoomie, to keep the tradition of bad puns in the title - Banjo-Tooie is a pun on the number "two". THQ's marketing department probably would have squashed this potential title early on due to fear of people not getting the joke. (A surprisingly large amount of people still ask Rare who the "Tooie" character is in Banjo-Tooie.)
• When Banjo-Pilot was still Diddy Kong Pilot, it was going to feature a tilt sensor similar to the Game Boy Color game Kirby Tilt 'n' Tumble. This feature was also dropped - Rare's official reason is that trying to play the game on the original, non-backlit Game Boy Advance was incredibly difficult, due to the player's loss of natural light as they tilted their system around. Another possible reason is that it was dropped due to the cost of the more expensive manufacture price of tilt-sensitive cartridges. The type of sensor that was going to be used in Diddy Kong Pilot has not been used since Tilt 'n' Tumble. Games that use a tilt sensor now, such as Wario Ware Twisted!, use a simplified version of the sensor, that only allows for left and right movement. It does not detect up and down movement of the system.
