Nintendo has become famous for its amazing platformers. They usually star an assortment of our favorite cartoon like characters raging from the iconic Mario & Donkey Kong all the way to ultra cute Yoshi and Kirby. However,during the N64 life cycle ,Nintendo had some steep competition from their very own 2nd party developers, Rare. Rare would create the amazing Banjo-Kazooie and its sequel Tooie along with Donkey Kong Country 64, surpassing Nintendo in the technical aspects of graphics and sounds and matching the big N in the game play department. But it was Conker’s Bad Fur Day that really shined near the end of the N64s life cycle. It would be an understatement to say that this game made by Rare was “different”. Sure it had all the great components of a wonderful 3D platform game that Rare had shown in the past but Conker had one thing no other Nintendo platformer had ever had. A really, and I mean really adult scene of humor. Conker would help bees “pollinate” large breasted Sunflower, fight a giant boss made completely out of poo, get drunk, unzip his pants and urinate all over enemies that were made of fire. And Conker would do these things for that all important thing in life, he did it for money. Even the simplest of tasks such as putting a male voiced “screw” into a female voiced “nut” in order to open a new area would have very adult humor. It was this very well done and very British “naughty comedy” that set the game apart from other platform games before it. The game play itself was ever bit as creative, challenging, and most importantly fun as the Banjo games or Donkey Kong Country 64 that Rare had made before it, but the adult content never took itself seriously and always made gamers laugh and was a great, refreshing new experience. I loved fighting the Nazi like teddy bears in multi player and playing out parodies of famous movie scenes such as The Matrix & Aliens. The game would never had become as famous had Rare continued to follow Nintendo’s advice and finish the ultra cute ” Conkers 12 Tales” Thankfully, the game changed for the better!
