Conker hasn’t seen much love from Microsoft despite staring in two classic games, Conker’s Bad Fur Day for the Nintendo 64 and the reworked Conker: Live and Reloaded for the original Xbox console. As most of you know Conker was meant to make his debut in Conker 64, which was later renamed to Twelve Tales: Conker 64. That project was scrapped as Nintendo thought the game too similar to the company’s Banjo-Kazooie video game, so it was reworked to the Mature rated, Conker’s Bad Fur Day. Fast forward to today and Chris Seavor, the original designer for Conker, shared the first character sketch for Conker and he looks similar Big the Cat from the 1999 Dreamcast title, Sonic Adventure. Check the early sketches for Conker below.

Never really care much about Conker.
The artist has trouble drawing thumbs and feet.
I wish we could have a new Conker game with the same attitude like back in the days.
