Attachment A Banjo-Kazooie game was in development for the Game Boy Color, under the name 'Banjo-Kazooie: Grunt's Curse'. It would have featured Gruntilda putting a curse on Kazooie, and carrying her in a backpack, similar to Banjo.
It's unknown why the game was canceled, but some of the ideas would later be reworked into Gruntilda's Revenge for the Gameboy Advance.
