Conker's Twelve Tales and Dinosaur Planet protos

[IOnEI Falcon]

I don't really notice anything similar at all to be honest, besides being free roaming games, like all 3d games heh.

So I guess nintendomad's copy was the one that was sold here? Which was a CBFD proto. Because there was also a Twelve Tales proto that sold privately that I remember being told about, I even posted about it at the Rare Witch forums back then seeing if anyone would be interested in trying to set up a funding for it if we could have a go at it. Unfortunately all the users on that forum showed themselves to not only be little kids who weren't even familiar with the original Conker's Quest, but they didn't even understand how to stay on topic :( And then I found out the seller ended up finding a buyer in private, so that went nowhere in the end.

I think it was a CES copy, but I'm not sure. All I remember is it was an early version. And the price was somewhere over $14k. This was all back in August 1009 for the record.

Shoot, I wish I would have seen your thread at the RWP. I would have been all about it but now finding your thread it seems as though it would have been an impossible feat to round up that group.

I've been repeatedly told it went for 15k usd

Man... as rare and cool as some of these prototypes are, I feel like there's a lot of inflation going on. $14-15k is just too much.

Here is a post that talked about it "Timberfan" said he knew the owner

He's a bit ambiguous about it. For all we know he just knew of the post here on Assembler where I got all my info and was thus saying he know how to get into contact with the owner :x Anyone that REALLY knew the guy who owned it I think would put more effort into some sorta fundraiser or get more information, rather than just say "I can contact him if I want to.."

Doesn't add up to me. I registered and am PMing him to see if he really does know the guy though.

I already PMed him and he directed me to here...haha!

[Bramsworth]

Thought so, he knows no one. :)

Well, I guess the only other option is to ask right here. Hey guy, you who bought the Twelve Tales proto for over $14k. We want to know how we can go about obtaining it for preservation. Please post here and let us know!

It's worth a shot =p

This is already an old thread, but it's really interesting to read. I was a huge fan of Twelve Tales during it's development and bought quite some magazines with screenshots of it, because I wanted it so badly! But later then I had to realize what they've done to Conker. Conker's BFD is hilarious, but I love the cute Conker from DKR. I also would like to know what happened to the proto the fan bought for this amount of money! I hope we will ever know. Maybe only time can tell, but if there's ever a fundraising to get more than $14k, I'd give a bit of my piggybank!

People have claimed to have Twelve Tails a few times in the past but nothings ever really materialized past talk. Would love to see it happen though, Rare games interested me a lot during the N64 games. So many massive changes through the development cycle of almost every game they released that era.

Goldeneye or Perfect Dark would be magic; but anything from that era would rule.
