A modder has managed to complete Banjo-Kazooie's Stop 'n' Swop secret on the original N64 hardware, finally closing the loop on an N64 trick Nintendo never wanted to allow.
The 1998 N64 classic Banjo-Kazooie features a number of secret items that were originally intended to unlock further secrets in other games by developer Rare. The devs found that when you pulled a cartridge out of the system, the game would remain in memory for a few seconds - just long enough for you to plug a different cartridge in to read the data from the previous game.
