Before Conker had his Bad Fur Day, he was in Twelve Tales, in this unseen footage!
Before Conker became the foul-mouthed, teddie-hating, beer-swelling squirrel we all know today, he was just another cute mascot character in a LONG-ass line of cute mascot characters. He had a Game Boy Color game and a cameo in Diddy Kong Racing. But that was it before he had his Bad Fur Day.
Then, he had a game in the pipeline called Twelve Tales: Conker 64 that was set to be released for the N64 before its transformation into one of the funniest games for the system. And all we saw of it were gameplay plus a couple of screenshots, and that was it.
Well, fear not! RareMinion.com (who oh-so famously dug up footage of Dinosaur Planet, aka StairFax Temperatures in its original form) has done it again! They have dug up 30 jam-packed minutes of this lost N64 game, much of which is NEVER-BEFORE-SEEN to the public eye. Check it out:
Now we wanna hear your say, g1s! Would you have been able to play this before it became what it is now? And would like Conker in this form BEFORE he started getting all Live and Reloaded? Jot those down in the comments.

All get better with a switch to Jimmy Choo Australia footwear but may eventually require surgery. How can you tell if a Cheap Jimmy Choo Shoes fits properly? The simple but elegant appearance design, the Jimmy Choo Ballerinas is quite suitable for some formal occasion, which Jimmy Choo Ciggy Heel could easily show you noble temperament. It is the symbol Jimmy Choo Trainers for the fashion people, numerous of stars and celebrities have Jimmy Choo Boots in their wardrobe. No matter which occassion they attend. http://www.jimmychooshoeau.com/

The world needs more foul-mouthed squirrels....especially in a world today where I can see him making PLENTY of jokes.

Rare would have been better off releasing this than Bad Fur Day; mostly because the lighthearted atmosphere and E rating would have given it a wider audience, with solid gameplay the game would reviewed AND sold well. Then again I'm not a reliable opinion on this matter, I HATE Conker's Bad Fur Day and think its insanely overrated. :/

Nah, I think the M-Rated South Park-esque makeover did Conker more good than bad. While I would've been interested in actually playing this, it probably would've sold just as poorly if not more if not for being too cute, than for being too similar to Banjo, DK64 and a bunch of other similar 3-D Platformers.

This game would have sooo been badass.

You know I wish this actually came out in it's intended form alongside Conker's Pocket Tales for the GBC before Bad Fur Day was released. The shock value of Conker going from a cute and cuddly platformer to him having a 21st birthday hangover would have been brilliant.

I think they were trying to make a counter part to Mario 64 and thanks to the cuteness it failed. So instead of battling with Mario for platforming. Rare must have decided to take a completely different route and it worked.

Anyone else picturing all of Rare throwing their hands up at the same time shouting "Scew it!" ? As far as I know, the reason for the transformation was that they thought it was too cute(rightfully so). It's fun to see all those things(like the scarecrow, the cyclops, the rocket board, Berry's head+hair, everything,really) and immediately recognise them from Bad Fur Day.
