Movies


This article is incomplete, otherwise known as a "stub." You can help the Conker Wiki by adding more.

The Wizard of Oz

When defeated, The Great Mighty Poo is flushed down the toilet by Conker. The last verse of his song is very similar to the message that the Wicked Witch of the West gives when defeated. The Great Mighty Poo's lines were changed accordingly, such as "melting" being changed to "flushing", or "little girl" to "little squirrel".

Video games

Banjo's head in Conker's Bad Fur Day.

Banjo-Kazooie 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.

Donkey Kong franchise

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. In Conker's Big Reunion, when Conker starts going to the second floor of the Tediz brewery, he asks himself what's going on and if there's some big ape throwing all these barrels down, and later asks if someone can call a plumber, referring to the arcade Donkey Kong game.

Grabbed by the Ghoulies

In Conker: Live & Reloaded, when selecting Game 3 in The Cock and Plucker, Cooper can be seen vomiting in a toilet.

The Halo magazine from an early build of Conker: Live & Reloaded.

Halo franchise

In an earlier build of Conker: Live & Reloaded, Conker could read a magazine with Master Chief on the cover for one of his idle animations. The final build of the game has a completely different magazine, with Berri on the cover instead.

Killer Instinct 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 Killer Instinct 2 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. Also, in an earlier build of Conker: Live & Reloaded, the magazine mentioned in the Halo section has the Killer Instinct logo on its back.

Mario 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 for Conker's Bad Fur Day.[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.

Pokémon 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

Uncle Sam

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.

Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?

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?.
