    So on a European gaming facebook pace some lady in Manchester has come across a dev cart of conkers bad fur day that seems to be a submission for the Bafta's. There is alot of hype around it but the general consensus is that its going to be a final version maybe the vest we could hope for is a debug menu.
    Wondering if anyone in the area has equipment to dump and check the rom against the retail version?

    Nothing to do with Conker 64 unfortunately. And it seems like the cart may have been around the block a few times, hopefully it still works.

    seeing that prototype footage in Rare replay realy teased us, if your going to make a game compilation, and go to the effort to dig out your prototyppes, why not include them in the compilation?

    Yeah this was submitted to the Bafta committee 3 months before its initial release so i wouldnt be expecting much of a change.

    I might be able to help I live in London though so she'd have to either come to London or post the cartridge

    Her and her partner have also now been kicked from the groups for being outed as scammers.

    Also funnily enough another member on that group saw all the bids for the cartridge and dug out what he is claiming to be a N64 cart of Twelve Tails, someone with an N64 is on their way to the guys house to see if it is the real deal. The cart is a standard N64 retail cart with a printed out label and what looks like a RARE internal sticker with a part code of some kind.

    At work so can't get on Facebook, no sale took place just a bunch of collectors wanting to grab at it. Like I say they are no longer in the groups involved.

    Yeah. The lady who supposedly owns the Conker N64 dev cart was banned, and I guess it's every man for himself to get a closer look at it. People just suddenly stopped talking about it, so people seem busy.

    Regarding the Twelve Tales cart someone spoke too early as it reeked of fish and turned out to be a hoax playing off yesterday's mayhem.

    So the lady has been outed as a previous scammer but it does seem that she has the cart, she was offered £3000 but now wants £4500. Id give up on this lady.

    Ignore it was a hoax on the back of this Bafta Cart find. It was a copy of V Rally in disguise.

    Yeah, time to move on from this. Price tag is too high from someone this suspect. Twelve Tails would be a great discovery but one that might not happen soon at all.

    Remember that I paid around 2500 for 4 RARE prototoype dumps with known differences. This is unconfirmed, from a fishy place, and even if you factor in a physical cart worth 400+, you're not even close.

    Can someone upload some proof that it’s a V Rally cart. The cart looks pretty legit to me.
