From what I know there was a letter to rare (from Nintendo) concerning the old banjo games (and I think other Rareware games too. The letter was their opinion on wether or not Banjo-Kazooie and Tooie, could be released on VC. In response, Rare said It was up to Nintendo wether or not they want to release The Banjo Games for VC. I'm thinking there is a good chance of It's release, but we have to be patient. =]
