References in the Conker franchise
Movies
Video games
Template:W series
In Conker's Bad Fur Day and Conker: Live & Reloaded, over the chimney in The Cock and Plucker, Banjo's head can be seen mounted like a hunt trophy, while Kazooie's head can be seen in the Chapters selection screen as an umbrella. Banjo's head can also be seen in a group artwork for Conker: Live & Reloaded.
Template:W
Some of Donkey Kong Land's sound effects were recycled in Conker's Pocket Tales. Additionally, one of Conker's idle animations from that game is him playing on his Game Boy, with Donkey Kong Land's Bonus Stage theme playing in the background.
Template:W
In Conker: Live & Reloaded, when selecting Game 3 in The Cock and Plucker, Cooper can be seen vomiting in a toilet.
Template:W franchise
In an earlier build of Conker: Live & Reloaded, Conker could read a magasine with Master Chief on the cover for one of his idle animations. The final build of the game has a completely different magasine, with Berri on the cover instead.
Template:W series
In Conker's Bad Fur Day, one of Conker's idle animation consists of him playing his Game Boy, similarly to Conker's Pocket Tales's idle animation. The game that Conker seems to be playing is a nonexistent port of Template:W for the Game Boy. The songs that can be heard are 8-bit renditions of the Jago and Sabrewulf stage themes, and the main theme of Killer Instinct. The idle animation was modified in Conker: Live & Reloaded, with the Game Boy now looking like a nonexistent Xbox-like portable console, and Jago's stage theme being removed. The songs that are in this version are 8-bit renditions of the Gangsta, Cinder, Riptor, Sabrewulf, Spinal and TJ Combo stage themes, and the Killer Instinct theme.
Template:W franchise
It has been requested that this section be rewritten. Reason: Super Mario Wiki revision from 2011 (with few edits)
Mario was mentioned by Conker in The Official Nintendo Player's Guide.[1] In the margins of his copy of Birdy Brand Manuals Presents the Survival Guide to the Panther King's Kingdom: Squirrel Edition, Conker compares himself to Mario, writing "I bet Mario never got a stinger up his arse!" This is a reference to Conker's many confrontations with Wayne and the Wankas.
Template:W franchise
In an unused cutscene from the ECTS 2000 build of Conker's Bad Fur Day, it's possible to see Don Weaso trying to catch a Pikachu by beating it up. After the Pikachu runs away, Don Weaso references the Pokémon catchphrase by saying "You know how it is, gotta catch 'em all". Chris Seavor stated on Twitter that the cutscene was removed at Nintendo's request because they "weren't too keen on having their baby bashed".[2] The Pikachu's tail is left unused in the final game.
Miscellaneous
Template:W
One of the promotional artworks for Conker: Live & Reloaded shows Conker with his war outfit on a poster parodying Uncle Sam, with the phrase "I want YOU to join the Squirrels" being similar to Uncle Sam's "I want YOU for U.S. army" phrase.
Template:W
In Conker's Bad Fur Day and Conker: Live & Reloaded, one of the things Conker can say after grabbing a Cash is "Who wants to be a millionaire? Me, actually.", which references the television game show, Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?.
Conker references in other media
Template:W series
In Banjo-Kazooie for the Nintendo 64, in the Rusty Bucket Bay world, a picture of Berri from her appearance in Twelve Tales: Conker 64 can be seen. This was changed for a picture of Conker in his Conker's Bad Fur Day appearance in the Xbox Live Arcade version. In Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts, the main theme for Windy can be heard on Banjo's radio, and Conker appears in his war outfit on a newspaper.
Club Nintendo (magazine)
Conker makes a small cameo appearance at the end of the Freeze Frame issue of the N-Gang series of comics from the German Club Nintendo magazine.
Template:W
In Grabbed by the Ghoulies, there is a shelf with many games on it, with two of them being boxes for Conker's Bad For Day.

In the Season 3 update of the 2013 version of Killer Instinct, Rash from the Battletoads series became playable, which included some exclusive costumes. One of those costumes is the Rarewear outfit, which references other Rare games, with the Rarewear Hood being Conker's head and the zipper of his vest.
Mario Artist: Paint Studio
In Mario Artist: Paint Studio, many artworks from Diddy Kong Racing can be used in the paint mode, including an artwork of Conker in his car.[3]
