Rare Revealed: A Rare Look at Twelve Tales: Conker 64

- Our favourite off-the-rails squirrel was on his best behaviour back in the days of Twelve Tales: Conker 64. The drastic transformation into Conker's Bad Fur Day came about long before Twelve Tales was complete as a game in its own right, but to this day we come across people eager for a better look at Conker's origins. So why not? We've got a stash of unseen footage, we've got Louise from the Conker team, and we've got a tale to tell...
To continue the story into the full Making Of Conker's Bad Fur Day, grab Rare Replay for Xbox One and find it in the Rare Revealed bonus features!

If Rare ever does a second Replay, they seriously should consider adding a graveyard/cutting room floor section, where these unfinished games can be played. (obviously put a warning that they're not completed/fully playable and are prone to crash) but it would make a fascinating addition and something no one has ever really done before.
Dinosaur Planet ans Sabreman would make another great one for the collection.
THAT WOULD BE AMAZING
THAT WOULD BE AMAZING
+Larry Bundy Jr no company would ever put unfinished stuff into their game
Dick Gumshoe
Why I mentioned Dinosaur Planet and Sabreman.
+ardstsp Early access doesn't exist right?
Please release the rom and i will love you forever.
Wait you mean room????
@@UltimateDoomSoldier nope, the twelve tales rom is the key to everything.
@Energytainment Too bad the game doesn't focus on mostly Conker since it is a Diddy Kong game.

At least this video confirmed that the data of the game is not lost. I remember hearing rumors and stories of how the last remaining rom was deleted, or sold to a guy who died, with no where abouts on the rom's location. I always felt those stories sounded too fishy to be true, but Louise O'Connor pretty much confirmed that Rare still has the game in their archives. It's believable too, since the footage shown is without a doubt the highest resolution imagery and footage of the game, ever released to the public.
+SpongicX Shitty thing is someone who often shares has a cart of this game, but it is empty thanks to Rare's old security measures.
+SpongicX I heard that the developers catridge had volatile memory back then in order to reduce costs into making more of those catridges.
That's clearly not the case anymore, since Rare was able to dig out the game through their archives, and give us those clear quality gameplay clips. Whether the game is finished or not, I want Twelve Tales: Conker 64 to get released as either a rom, or as dlc for Rare Replay.
Falcon Bleck What you say doesn't make a whole lot of sense, plus the volatile memory is the security measure I was speaking about.
The catridges were expensive to produce, but hey, is what i heard, i really want to remember were...
Why doesn't Rare understand that *EVERYONE* want's another conker game? They're sitting on a gold mine right now.
BubbaDJ Microsoft owns them
thats part of it, but the guy thats the leader of the team that made conkers bad fur day said he wouldn't make a game like that again even if they did get the chance too, so i wouldn't get your hopes up even if microsoft let them do it. Which does REALLY suck because i'm really wanting a sequel myself.

@@SKULL0fD3ATH.
But isnt Chris more of a drunk person and not the true Conker? I know he voiced him in Bad Fur Day but if he doesn't want to do a new game for Conker with a voice, its time to find someone else for the role.
Hes probably lazy or too old to continue with the character anyway. If there could be a sequel, a new person could voice Conker and Chris just tells the game developers on what the sequel would be about, etc.
AHEM MICROSOFT LOVE CENSORSHIP
Honestly, this looks like it would have been an amazing game. What we got is great, but you can tell how hard they worked on Twelve Tales. Seriously a shame they didn't release it then make Bad Fur Day later on.
I thought it was the same game. From what i understand, twelve tales: conker 64 is basically an early prototype of conkers bad fur day even if it is almost a completely different game
@@chrishernandez8328 I don't really think you understood the comment lol
Hmm… 🤔
I really like Bad Fur Day, but I wish this version also saw the light of day. It looked so adorable.
i wish the rom for this was released. id even pay for it.
if it was deleted they could remake it
If it was deleted how could they capture this in HD?
exactly. this video proves this rom still exist.
Me too!
davidevgen there was a rom but it got deleted
Rare, please release this early build as a rom file.
We HAVE to play this.
+FizzedPixels they wouldent release a rom, but they could release it on rare replay
Probably aren't allowed to officially release it.....but someone could accidentally leak it online...........
+StupidMarioBros1Fan Yeah...... ""accidentally""............
+StupidMarioBros1Fan YEAH! LET'S HACK RARE! =3
lolnope.avi
Welfz Furs ... If magic existed i would use Vanish to be invisible and get the rom. Sadly magic doesn't exist. I'M GOING NUTS! I WANT TO PLAY THIS!!!
2:45 - "All grown up"
If that's true, then Twelve Tales Conker is the real Young Conker. Not that fake one where he dons a space suit and jumps around in your room.
Watercolor Kirby and pocket tales and diddy Kong racing
Oh heck!!!
conker is underaged in bad fur day lol
She has a great voice.
+Z Gaming She's the voice of the sunflower and berri in the game ;)
+ZELX Yeah I recognized it :) but her normal speaking voice is lovely.
+ZELX every girl in the game
If I'm not mistaken she also does the voice of Leafos from the Viva pinata series.
@@BrutalRandon Except for that one puppet girl at the end of the It's War chapter, I remember hearing in one of the CBFD developer commentaries that she was the only female character in the game that was voiced by Chris Seavor.
The drastic change from cute and kid friendly to adult and mature was single-handedly one of the greatest decisions ever.
+ninjadude183 and Mr. Conker Himself was responsible for it
+thesatanic6 I want to play every decent 3d platformer nowadays since they're almost extinct.
thesatanic6 I knoooow, so hyped! But it had to be done by crowdfunding, publishers have no faith in that genre anymore (except for very few exceptions).
+ninjadude183
As much as I love BFD it's honestly pretty lacking when it comes to platforming.
No, it really wasn't, ninjadude183.
Seriously, make Rare Replay DLC and put these protos on it. It would be amazing.
Rabid **Insert Fry take my money here**
I'm extremely glad this exists, I always wanted to play twelve tales as a kid, and tried to play pocket tail as my substitute for it missing. Seeing it documented brings so much unbridled joy to me that I don't think anyone else could understand.
I LOVE DIFFERENT HATS!
Good! Indifference to different hats causes difficulties.
As much as i loved Bad Fur Day i still wish that Twelve tales would be released as a prequel to Bad Fur Day!
you guys could have turned it into Conker's life as a child and transform the child like aspect of the levels and add Bad Fur Day's humor to stay true to Bad Fur Day! I would pay to see Twelve Tales as a prequel with the same levels they were designed to be just add adult humor movie references with each hat like BFD did and different mechanics to go around Bad Fur Day as well! It could have also told us the story of how Conker became so greedy and a drunkard!
Please revive Twelve tales! if we cant have a proper sequel, please do a prequel!
did u know, if the game still exited,it would be in a fire proof cell in rares headquarters
I think that different hats mechanic is still in Conker's Bad Fur Day. In this part where Conker had to swim in this underwater place in a safe while avoiding these robo fish (I think it's a parody of The Abyss), he wears a torch hat and in this stone age part, he wears a black saber-toothed tiger hat.
HOLY CRAP! IT LIVES!!
I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS
+TheCartoonGamer8000 bruh!
+TheCartoonGamer8000 I like your videos.
+TheCartoonGamer8000 This is old footage, but there might be a chance of it living because someone found a dev cartridge with "twelve tales conker 64" written on it but it is presumed that the data on it had been wiped.
The footage shown here has never been seen, and is in very high quality. This is proof that Rare still has a build of the game in their archives.
I know a lot of people already said that, but I would love to see this prototype as DLC in Rare Replay.
The DLC could include these games & prototypes:
- Conker's Quest/Twelve Tales Conker 64
- Project Dream
- Sabreman Stampede
- Dinosaur Planet
- It's Mr. Pants
- Banjo-Kazooie: Grunty's Revenge
- Banjo-Pilot
- Conker's Pocket Tales
- etc.
-Banjo Threeie
-Conker's Bad Fur Day 2
@@lebolsas2010
1- Banjo-Threeie was never a thing, it was just a joke said at the end of Tooie as a reference to Snake Rattle n Roll's ending, and the Spaceworld video was just a tech demo showcasing the power of the Gamecube with reused Tooie assets.
2- Conker's Other Bad Day never left the concept stage, and again the Spaceworld video is just to showcase the power of the GC.
@kaymez I know. I still think including these protos would be a good DLC for Rare Replay. Maybe the Dinosaur Planet they'd have would be a different build than the one that was found recently.
We got Goldeneye 007.
@@ChristianFrates1997 Kinda.
Seeing as Dinosaur Planet recently got leaked... I can only hope for a leak of this game. It looks like so much fun!
Yes me too
Or Rare can just give us the rom, rather than have other people leak it lol
Same even tho its been a year, I always hope for it every day.
But i'm curious about the GameCube sequel, I especially wanna play that on my Hacked Wii U lmao (A hacked Wii U can play GameCube games natively)
The orginal conker actually looks really fun, imfact if that version was kid friendly it probably would have sold more then banjoe kazooie, but as somome who loves conkers bad fur day i'm glad we got the more ranchy version
My guess is that both versions could work really well. It's so disappointing that a game that was almost finished got cut just because some idiot wrote a bad review. The fact that they put so much work and detail in a promising game that got never released is just bad. Twelve Tales would become another hit, maybe even better than SM64 or BK. Don't focus on the cuteness when the title itself is full of pure fun, great ideas and innovative gameplay. Rare made a big mistake here. They still could have released BFD for an older audience later.
I love how Louise O'Connor was also the voice of Berri in Conker's Bad Fur Day and Leafos in Viva Piñata.
Still waiting for my sequel Rare
+KangarooBeard Microsoft: No Thanks, we're good :)
+KangarooBeard
Well, you got... it?
Seriously though
Where is conkers other fur day?
you mean conker other bad day? oh that got cancelled due to rares buyout from Nintendo you see the game was made for the GameCube with other games and due to Microsoft buying out rare they had to remake conkers bad fur fay

This is awesome. Finally this small gaming story gets some attention from Rare. There's a whole build of the game just collecting dust in an archive that everyone wants to see more of, but no, let it keep collecting dust...
Am I the only one who thinks the original game looked pretty interesting?
Of course not, in fact I think it was extremely interesting
@@gosteponyourmomslego5053 Looks very graphical and detailed as well so gorgeous it is very interesting.
No. I wanted 12 Tales Conker. I refuse to play Bad Fur Day.
It looks like a Banjo clone, glad they made Conker his own thing
@@Galactusperson Why do you refuse to play it? lol
This is something I've ALWAYS wanted to play!!! I wish you guys release a Beta of it sometime in Rare Replay. It's been a dream of mine since I was little to play this game!!!
IKR? Breaks my heart to see it get cancelled...
I still have absolutely 0 idea what happened between the kid-friendly platformer the first builds were and the decidedly less kid-friendly release version but I'm glad it happened.
1:16 That is some smug ass walking.
I'm just glad you guys didn't throw your cancelled games away. Speaking of which, would you guys mind showing the gamecube version of grabbed by the ghoulies or Donkey Kong racing if you guys still have it?
Young Conker is terrifying. The fake one, most of all. He has a terrifying face and body. Real young Conker, is terrifying because of the realistic design.
By this video showing these betas/demos/prototypes in high resolution (meaning that these videos were recorded recently) we can absolutely tell that they still really got all of these roms safe and sound. I recognised almost all the video game scenes seen from early VHS footages and photos from magazines. It would be amazing if those roms leaked. Unfortunately I think they can't release them officially because of the logos/trademarks and other copyright material of Nintendo and other producers/artists. So a leak would be the only way of getting us to play these prototypes.
I was such a sad kid when I heard this was pulled. Really hope it shows the light of day.
at least the game is in good hands and it has not been destroyed
I’M BEGGING YOU!! RELEASE THIS GAME, I WILL BUY IT INSTANTLY
Wow! I love these Rare Revealed videos. I've kind of been a Rare fan boy ever since I was little and realized that people actually made video games and that games didn't just appear out of nowhere. Seeing the kind of planning process that goes into things like this is really interesting to me.
Seeing this early beta footage is really fun too. I'm sure at least someone at Rare is aware of how much money people have offered for Twelve Tales-related things. This video is like dangling the game itself in front of them and giggling.
This is what was missing from Rare Replay.
I mean, the games selection was great, replaying Bad Fur Day in its uncensored version was great and all.
BUT, what would have been cool was to release some prototypes (like the Banjo ones) and especially Conker 64.
You REALLY should release some of these.
Super Lucky's Tale is probably the closest thing that we'll get to this game.
I love how the threat of Rareware's own internal competition (in the form of Banjo-Kazooie) was what spurred them into reinventing themselves
Do you have any footage of Banjo Threeie?
+Nintega Dario There is no Threeie. The game that was 'Threeie' is Nuts n Bolts.
***** No, Threeie was a cancelled game that was supposed to release on GameCube and had nothing to do with Nuts n' Bolts.
Stop Call Banjo-Threeie, Is Really Annoying, Plus Banjo-Threeie is Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts
Gregory de Zoete thats how its called at the end of tooie, and no it was never ment to be like nuts and bolts
Gruntilda said so.
1:57
I wish that ability was added in BFD
Because that would have been cool
I find it interesting that they have such nice high resolution footage.
Brandon Klopp the footage your seeing is actual gameplay tryst they dug up to show us.
Oh what I'd give for a brand new, over the top Conker adventure. Love you guys.
2:51"Chris Allcock" poor guy! :/
+Kniffel101 It must be terrible for him.
+Kniffel101 He must be a good friend with Steve Noballs

who would vote this video down?! It's interesting, well edited, and the presenter is charming
....the Horror............the Horror...................................................
It's dreadful, isn't it.
You gotta talk about it man, you can't just avoid it for the rest of your life. *pats shoulder*
for Christ's sake's,Chris...
Thanks so much for sharing this new footage! Rare Replay is really worth the purchase specially for Rare fanatics.
The unreleased version should be put on Nintendo's N64 Virtual Library.
Thank you rare!!!! For all these!!
These throwbacks with the original crew are awesome! Rare had the best talent back then
FINALLY, we get to see footage from Rare themselves. Allow me to say those of you up there at Rare, if there is still a build of this game lying around, I would LOVE to get a chance to play this!
Its not something you would have to spend much money on to get out the door since it already exist. Just putting a nice polish on it and throw it up on the Xbox Live store, I would buy this in a second!
Guys please release another Conker game!!
Amazing video by the way, it looked pretty fun, still the one that actually came out is amazing, finished it today for the first time thanks to Rare Replay.
If they could finish this game and make it a DLC for Rare Replay
I would definetly buy an xbox and RR, just to play that one
Conker had probably some of the best animation in any of Rare's older works. BFD is one of my favorite games of all time. Thanks for sharing Rare!
All I can really say about this is thank you. Rare really does go the extra mile.
loving these vids Rare
Glad it turned into Bad Fur Day but wouldn't mind playing this. They really need to release more Conker games.
Hey we found a prototype of Dinosaur planet, who says their isn't one out there for this beauty.
Yes... just wait and this will leak...
Maybe they will even leak Conker's other bad day... (the canceled conker GameCube sequel that turned into Live and reloaded)
I feel like they are going to announce a new Conker game because they keep releasing info on the unreleased games... seems suspicious ;D
+RandomJeanc No, this video and all of them are in the Rare Replay game.
+Falcon Bleck. Welp, there goes my dream...
OOOHHH HECK
Timing couldn't be more perfect
I wish this game was unlockable in Rare Replay similar to Star Fox 2 on the SNES Classic Edition.
That would be amazing if Rare made a prequel to Conker showing how Little Conker from 12 tales turned into what we know him as today
this looks really cute with music it has lots of gameplay variety i eouldnt doubt that it could have been one of the best 3d platformers of that era
So....are we getting a new conker game or what? I understand conker had a heck of a dev change, from kiddy to mature. I am sure there is something for us you're teasing us about. :)
+Adrian Torres Rare Replay promotion, they have their hands full with Sea of Thieves.
H4mm3rSp4c3 ya I get that, but once they're at a point where they're creating scenes from the story board or concept art, game designers could be working on the next game; that's if they're not busy with making sure their vision is seen.
***** Never been a game developer, however I do read a lot about the process thus I disagree. I truly doubt a studio will make 2 games at the same time (unless they're really huge) until one of them is very near completion.
H4mm3rSp4c3 same here, and ya true. I did hear the voice of conker said that, the team that made donkey kong 64, didn't do a great job of optimizing the game, compared to the conker dev team. Granted this was 10+ years ago. their dev team is pretty small now.
+Adrian Torres In addition, an MMO takes a lot of manpower and a AAA title in modern times takes way more people than it did in the N64 days.
"What the damn-diddly squat are ya doing in my barn!?" 😂
Love rare replay and love this!
1:38 Before they left it to make CBFD.
WE WANT A NEW CONKER GAME!!!
I wish Rare was money hungry like Concker so we can get the sequal
Twelve Tales was my biggest wish back then
This game would've been ahead of it's time
One of the best of all time and one of my favorites for sure. Incredible game.
I FOR ONE, Prefer Twelve Tales: Conker 64 to Conker's Bad Fur Day
New3DSLUIGI364 Because you're probably like 10, right
New3DSLUIGI364 your not alone
This is very cool. Thanks for sharing 😃
Really saddening to see what Twelve Tales was shaping up to be. From the look of it, that could have been one platformer I'd have very fond memories of had it come out in my day - so much that it could have been the Crash Bandicoot that drew me to the Nintendo 64 rather than the PlayStation. Alas...
i just find this a slap in the face, kts like they're saying look at this awesome game we've made and you will never know how it feels
i would love to see this game released.
Sorry Louise, but after Chris Seavor spilled the beans, I can't unhear the voice of the sunflower as being yours XD.
Oh god! We need a proper Conker sequel right now!
I can just imagine him on acid with whole sequences of the game playing out just like this! xD lol
Wow.......this looks very great!
One of my favourite video games.
I'd love to see someone take some inspiration from this old idea and mesh it with Wind Waker's art style and such. It almost seems like the two games were long lost kin.
man now that im satisfied of seeing never before gameplay footage of twelve tales, you should show dinosaur plannet next, because thats the one im 100% curious about
There's an alternate universe where Banjo-Kazooie was given a mature makeover and Conker got a kid-friendly game and made it to Smash
I actually really like conker's original idea of being an interactive cartoon, but I honestly really prefer what he ended up being. Plus, now it'd be difficult to imagine conker being kid friendly in a 3d game
Conkers bad fur day was not a childs game even though I played it as a child. It was an awesome game.
My favorite Rare/Microsoft is Pipsy the yellow mouse, along with her boyfriend Pipdy the green mouse in Mouseland.
You could say that "Conker's Twelve Tales" turned into "Conker's Twelve Steps," am I right?
See, because he's an alcoholic.
Eh? Eh?
I'll go to face the corner and think about what I just did.
hall9111 no here is the door.
Marco Fantasy 😂
That would make a funny meta-reference, actually.
Patrick: I don’t get it.
I swear, if 'Young Conker' for Hololens is replaced with TTC64, everyone will be HAPPPPPPPPPPPPPPY including me.
Oh geez I want to play this version of the game so badly
I still wish we had gotten this Conker instead of what Rare gave us.
Here we go with the teases again. PLEASE make us another!! :(
wow. so much change. but wow that was kept in the vault for the longest time :O
This could be a great sequel concept!
Please consider release these roms to public,any of us we would love play the lovely cute conker sounds very fun to play.
Rare should seriously consider going back and finish this project, bad fur day is a good game but its also not the game I grew up reading about in magazines and having high expections of, this game could be just as good bad fur day if not even better.
imagine a bigger rare replay but it also has other stuff like playable versions of unreleased games. imagine that happening.
Wait .. she did the voice for Berri didn't she?
Like, that's totally awesome.
tbh, looks better in this select footage than what (I've played at least) we received in regards two versions of the game that we did get. If the humor doesn't grab you its kind of like the same feeling you get when you are sitting on an overcrowded bus and people are constantly whittlin' down your seat space.
As much as I loved Bad a Fur Day growing up, seeing this really makes me wish they had released Twelve Tales instead. BFD played out more like a linear movie and, for all it did extremely well, it never really felt like an actual "platformer" in some ways. Especially now, seeing all the things they ended up taking out. A real shame...
I reckon this game should be on the N64 classic edition like there was starfox 2 on the SNES classic edition
That would be cool! But definitely not the final game. As uh...
IT'S RATED M
@@renewings yeah, it's not like nintendo has released any m rated games before
I can't help but feel Tweleve Tales would have been a far better game. Although I see the point of trying to stand out among platformers, I think it would have been a real strong competitor. The idea of different hats per level, with different abilities, mirrors the transforming in Banjo Kazooie, and if it's one thing the world needs, it's more platformers like Banjo-Kazooie. Let's hope that one day a rom surfaces.
Oh Rare what have you become!
This showed up in my recommendations and my heart jumped. Unfortunate there's no sequel.
I remember seeing this in EGM (as Twelve Tales) wayyyy back in the day
