It was Conker's Bad Fur Day's 25th anniversary last week, and to mark the occasion @robinbeanland.com, the original composer of that bawdy ordeal, has whipped up a remix of its iconic club music! 'Rock Solid Revitalised' is available now on a bunch of music platforms. Marvellous.

Back when Viva Piñata was released, Burger King gave away these fab figurines (they are hollow shells with a small gift inside) with their kids meals. Anyone else got these in their collection?

25 years since we released Banjo-Tooie! Have a boss-montage. Bosses are always the most fun to make. See how big and strong Mr Patch is!

Opinion: Banjo-Tooie Is Pure Nightmare Fuel, And I Wouldn't Have It Any Other Way.

While today marks Banjo-Tooie's 24-year, seven-month-and-eight-day anniversary in the EU, it's also the 25th anniversary of this second helping of bear and bird landing in America! Please use this post to reminisce over its connected worlds, new abilities and murder of Bottles.

Donkey Kong Country tribute collage! 🦍🍌🌴 DK’s games are some of my favourites of all time so I wanted to put everything into this piece for the game. Every enemy, boss, and item are here! #art #Nintendo #nintendoswitch2 #donkeykongbananza

Such a loss to Rare. Here's hoping Gregg is able to carry on making games at another studio but wherever his path may lead we wish him nothing but the best. There aren't enough words to adequately describe how much fun and enjoyment Gregg has brought to us over the years. Thank you sir!
