Remember when Rare was going to give all the characters from Diddy Kong Racing their own games? Only Diddy, Banjo, and Conker ever got theirs before the Microsoft buyout. What a damn shame.

These look like the most bland, uninteresting characters I have ever seen in my life. It's a good thing that they did not get their own games. Seriously it was always an awful idea.

No I don't believe this ever happened. Seems to be a fanciful lie from desperate and gameless n64 fans.

i don't expect the tranime tard to have any real thoughts, or even a soul, so it makes sense you think that

No, that was never the plan
Just pay attention to how Conker and Banjo are treated differently in the game's story BECAUSE they actually had games in development
They were thrown in the roster not made planned to be there from the start
Closest would be Pipsy originally being a male mouse that had their own game

Nobody would give a fuck about any of these goobers though. What kind of games would they even star in?
You can't have that many cutesy 3D platformers. People were already experiencing fatigue when Conker's Twelve Tales came around.

Why are you trying to convince people that they're troons for posting anime on an anime website? You are a groomer.

Banjo-Kazooie and Twelve Tales: Conker 64 were in development BEFORE Diddy Kong Racing was even a thing

It never did
Its reveal at conferences saw people write it off which led to Rare drastically changing it

Yes, exactly. People thought that shit looked boring.

>Timburr was gonna be the mascot of the game before Diddy took his spot
>Tiptup became a Banjo character
>Krunch is just a kritter with a name, and inspired the design for the kritters in DK64

It’s possible they were all meant to get games or at least cameos like Tiptup, but I doubt it.

Krunch is just one example of a DKC enemy made into an individual character.
Timber was the OG main character of DKR (Pro-AM) before it was turned into a DK game, and it's even still his island. Would've probably just remained a central character alongside the Dongs, Taj and T.T. had it continued.
Tiptup was immediately made into a recurring minor Banjo character.

Putting Banjo and Conker aside that leaves Pipsy (who indeed had Astro Mouse before it got shitcanned, also originally about a male mouse), Drumstick (wiki ties him heavily to Timber's island, probably would've remained DKR-specific), and Bumper (no idea, jokingly in jail).

Rare was out of their minds if they thought they could ride the cereal mascot platformer fad for 8 fucking games

It worked out. The fad continued into the PS2 era.

Pipsy's the only one who had a game concept that got shelved, everyone else that didn't have their own or in-development at the time was tied to either DKR itself or DK. Bumper's the only odd one out, but given his name he was probably just a racer too.

People make it out that Rare made dozens of mascot collect-a-thon platformers for the N64
They made three and only one of them still universally seen as excellent

That's the incorrect part, they were nearly half of Nintendo's workload period for the N64, and are equally known for making console FPS's popular before Xbox Live took over. Also I guess there's SF Adventures for collectathons if we're counting Gamecube.

Rare fucking carried the N64 and they didn't deserve to be thrown to the side of the road when Nintendo was finished with them

I was excited for the Conker game before they turned it into dumb South Park shit. Stupid fucking morons.

Here I thought I was the only who vastly preferred pre-edgy Conker. BFD should've just used an original non-DKR character instead of shitcanning an almost complete game.
