(This was likely a way to mock [[Nintendo]], as the ''Alex Kidd'' games were all made by [[Sega]], Nintendo's brutal business rival.)<ref>As noted in previews in ''S - The Sega Magazine'' Issue 4.</ref> By the final game, however, Mari-Oh was replaced with the unrelated "Kabuto" boss.

| |
| *There are many rare [[Nintendo Entertainment System|NES]] that the player can find and play once they are in their house. Among them are several [[Mario (series)|Mario]] games, including ''[[Donkey Kong]]'' and ''[[Wario's Woods]]''. ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' can be found in the game's coding, though there is no known way to get it legitimately.
| |
| *Two items in the game are the rare [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] statues. <sup>1 2</sup>
| |
| *While rowing to Animal Island, Kapp'n sings one of a few random songs, and a line to one of them is that he sings better than Mario. After rescuing Gulliver, the player might be told of how he left his pet goldfish in Hyrule and [[Toad Town]].
| |
| *There is also a series of Mario-themed furniture that could be unlocked with special cheat codes from [[Nintendo Power]] if the player told them to Tom Nook. They include: [[Warp Pipe]], [[Starman]], [[Fire Flower]], [[Mushroom]], [[Flagpole]], [[Koopa Shell]], [[Cannon]] (or rather a [[Bullet Bill Blaster]]), [[? Block]], [[Brick Block]], and a [[Coin]]; also, there was a wallpaper called "Mushroom Mural" which was an exact replica of the backdrop of the first level in [[Super Mario Bros.]], and a carpet called "Block Flooring" which was identical to the brown brick ground Mario walked on.
| |
| *There are four Mario-related shirts: the big bro's shirt, a red shirt with Mario's trademark 'M', the lil' bro's shirt, a green shirt with Luigi's 'L', the turnip shirt, on which a pattern resembling [[vegetable]]s appears, and the toad shirt, which is a red shirt with [[Toad (species)|Toad]] spots; for some reason, the name in-game incorrectly spells "Toad" with a lowercase t.
| |
| *There is a crocodile named Alfonso, who sports the red M shirt, and whose initial catchphrase is "It's-a me". One of the gorillas, Louie, greatly resembles [[Donkey Kong]] (who, ironically, wears the lil' bro's shirt). Lastly, if the player sends Bob the code on his E-card, he will write back in a letter claiming he had a dream of the player running around an island with a water pump on their back; this is a reference to ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]''.

| |
| *There is an area accessed through a [[Warp Pipe]] in WCW Arena named "Internetus" which is somewhat of a tribute to the ''Mario'' games. There are [[POW Blocks]], [[Thwomps]], [[Mushroom]] platforms, [[Pirahna Plant]] designs on the floor and more. Even the music sounds like ''Mario''.
| |
| *In the secret entrance to Las Vegum, there is a menhir painted white with green spots, resembling a [[Yoshi Egg]].
| |
| *The wall behind the Eiffel Tower in Lutetia is designed to look like the background of a ''Mario'' level.
| |
| *Near the boss in WCW Arena, there are wall tiles made to look like blocks from Mario games.
| |
| *In the night-time area of Venetia, there are giant statues of [[Donkey Kong]],[[Princess Peach]] and a [[Shine Sprite]]. Additionally there are two more Shine Sprites in an underground tunnel in the same room.
| |
| *Some flag decorations in Venetia feature [[Super Mushrooms]] and Yoshi Eggs.
| |
| *Upon entering the Obelisk area of Lutetia, there are barrels rolling down a slope with Donkey Kong's logo on them.
| |
| *In WCW Arena there is a massive scaffolding which looks and plays just like the first level of ''[[Donkey Kong (game)|Donkey Kong]]''. There is also one on Pirate Island with a giant statue of Donkey Kong on top (the same one seen in Venetia, but wearing an eye patch).
| |
| *On Pirate Island there are carvings of Donkey Kong's face on the ground at one area.
| |
| *In Venetia there are fountains featuring Donkey Kong's face, with the water flowing from his mouth.
| |

| *In the level Click Clock Wood, there is a large beaver named [[Gnawty]] who needs Banjo and Kazooie to destroy the rock blocking the entrance to his home. However, he is different in appearance from the Gnawtys of ''[[Donkey Kong Country]]'' and is likely just a reference to the species in name only.

| |
| |
| |
| *To show the power of the vehicle editor in the game, a Mario on wheels is shown in the trailer in Nutty Acres. <sup>1</sup> It then gets destroyed by Banjo and Kazooie, possibly a reference regarding the departure from [[Nintendo]]. The trailer was later edited to remove the portion when the 8-bit Mario is destroyed. However, the shot of it prior to the destroying remains. <ref>[http://gamevideos.com/video/id/18831 Source]</ref>
| |
| *During the opening cutscene, just after the narrator's monologue when Banjo & Kazooie are seen for the first time. If looked carefully, an ever so slightly damaged N64 with the cord wrapped around it sitting on the ground next to Kazooie's Xbox 360, will be seen. This is more of a reference to the series roots than to Mario, but it's interesting to note, nonetheless.
| |
| *In the opening sequence, where the Banjo, Kazooie and Gruntilda encounter the Lord of Games for the first time, Kazooie at one point remarks that they have been in several games already, and LOG responds by saying that they've been in "nowhere near as many as that Italian gentleman."
| |
| *In the Jiggoseum level, up on a balcony in the south end of the main area, is a pile of giant, metallic dice cube that Kazooie can pick up and move. Hidden behind them is a large, golden cube with a metallic white question mark on the side of it. This is a quite obvious (and very devious) reference to the "? Blocks" of Super Mario fame.
| |
| *The achievement unlocked for opening the "Terrarium of Terror", an outer-space forest themed world, is called "Super Banjo Universe," a parody of ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]''.
| |
| *The balls in the Jiggoseum world say "DK Sports" on them, and it is odd that there is a Donkey Kong cameo in the game because Rare no longer has the rights to the character.
| |
| *One of the questions given by LOG in the quiz at the end of the game is "Which game featured a Banjo appearance but wasn't a Banjo title?" The correct choice is ''[[Diddy Kong Racing]]'', another clear reference to Rare's Donkey Kong series even though they shouldn't be able to.

| *At one point in the game the real world is merged with the video game world, and many of the people of Free Country, USA think that they are video game characters. Marzipan, who was previously helping Bubs fix his Concession Stand, thinks she is "Lady Crate Ape". She kidnaps Bubs and goes to the top of the stand. She then jumps and causes the scaffolding around the stand to collapse and begins throwing crates around. This is an obvious spoof of Donkey Kong. The box art for Lady Crate Ape also appears in the game, depicting a female ape that bears a strong resemblance to Donkey Kong.
