The design of Spiral Mountain and its surrounding area in ''Ultimate'' is largely based on its appearance in the original game, as the bridge to Gruntilda's lair is still open and the landscape is unscathed. There is also great influence from its appearance in ''Nuts & Bolts'', particularly with its color palette and the geometry of various locations, such as the mountain itself. Notably, the design of Banjo's house is a mixture of its more detailed, stylized appearance in ''Nuts & Bolts'' — including Banjo's name written on the door — with its initial, undamaged appearance in the first game. Just like in the original ''Banjo-Kazooie'', an Extra Life statue is hovering above the chimney and behind the waterfall, and Empty Honeycomb Pieces appear atop a tree stump, on a platform in front of the waterfall area, above a tree next to the mountain, and in the vegetable garden. | The design of Spiral Mountain and its surrounding area in ''Ultimate'' is largely based on its appearance in the original game, as the bridge to Gruntilda's lair is still open and the landscape is unscathed.

With the exception of the Buzzbombs, the characters that cameo in the background each play an important role in the series. Gruntilda serves as the main antagonist of the series, often causing trouble for Banjo and Kazooie. Tooty is Banjo's younger sister who is kidnapped in the first game by Gruntilda. Jinjos are creatures who were kidnapped and thrown into the different worlds in the first game by Gruntilda, and were forced out of their home village in the second game by her drill, the HAG 1. Bottles is an intelligent nearsighted mole who teaches Banjo and Kazooie new abilities in the first game prior to his death at the beginning of the second (although he is eventually revived, he does not continue to teach them). Mumbo Jumbo is a shaman whom Banjo and Kazooie visit in the first game to be transformed into various unique creatures to help them access more Jiggies, and is a playable character in the second game who can use his magic to help solve puzzles. Buzzbombs are enemies introduced in Bubblegloop Swamp in ''Banjo-Kazooie'', with one lone Buzzbomb making an appearance in the intro movie to that game as well. | With the exception of the Buzzbombs, the characters that cameo in the background each play an important role in the first game, and with the further exception of Tooty, the entire series.
