SmashWiki needs help adding these new parameters to Smasher infoboxes, refer to the guidelines here for what should be included in these new parameters. |
| When adding results to Smasher pages, include each tournament's entrant number in addition to the player's placement, and use the {{Trn}} template with the matching game specified.

Use this template to store trivia items relevant to both Banjo and Kazooie.
- Banjo and Kazooie are the fourth foreign-created characters to be playable in Smash Bros.: they alongside Diddy Kong and King K. Rool were created by British developer Rare Ltd., and Dark Samus was created by American developer Retro Studios. They are the first third-party fighter to be created outside of Japan, and the first fighter in general to belong to a completely foreign franchise.
- Banjo and Kazooie are the first third-party playable characters in Smash Bros. to belong to a non-Japanese company, as well as current console rival of Nintendo, Microsoft.
- Steve is the only other character to fit both of these criteria, also hailing from Microsoft.
- They are also the only third-party fighter to be created by the same company as first-party characters, as Rare Ltd. also created Diddy Kong and King K. Rool. Banjo, in fact, debuted within the Donkey Kong franchise in Diddy Kong Racing; Kazooie was not playable, but she was mentioned in the instruction manual.
- However, Banjo and Kazooie hold the unique distinction of being the only fighter who were formerly part of a second-party franchise, partially owned by Nintendo, before becoming a third-party.
- Banjo & Kazooie are the only third-party fighter whose series debuted on a Nintendo console other than the NES.
- Banjo & Kazooie are the only third-party fighter to debut in a game that was published by Nintendo worldwide.
- Banjo & Kazooie are the fourth fighter in the series voiced by a non-Japanese voice actor in all language tracks of Ultimate who did not originate from the Mario universe, following Zero Suit Samus, Lucas, and several costumes of Bayonetta.
- Out of them, Banjo and Kazooie are the only characters to be voiced by a male actor (Chris Sutherland), as the others are voiced by actresses (Alésia Glidewell, Lani Minella and Hellena Taylor, respectively. Also among these, they are the only characters to recycle voice clips from their home series instead of ones recorded specifically for a Smash game.
- Banjo & Kazooie and Dark Samus are the only playable fighters whose games of origin were neither released first in Japan nor simultaneously worldwide, with both (Banjo-Kazooie and Metroid Prime 2, respectively) releasing in North America first.
