If you were to ask me what the best platformer is on Nintendo 64, I'd probably say Banjo-Kazooie. Yes, sure, Super Mario 64 was groundbreaking, and Donkey Kong 64 and Conker's Bad Fur Day had their strengths, but it was this Rare-made treasure of a game that, performance issues aside, took the crown.
Which is why the completion of a fan-made decompilation project of Banjo-Kazooie, which comes hot on the heels of fellow N64 classic Perfect Dark getting reverse-engineered, has plenty of us here at PC Gamer very excited, as it opens the door to a true PC port of the game and a continuation of the PC becoming the place to play classic console games.
