You only have to look at the reaction to Banjo\u2019s appearing in Smash to see that this was purely a fan driven thing, and fans are if nothing else a noisy and belligerent bunch. I mean, it\u2019s an abbreviation of \u2018Fanatic\u2019 after all.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<blockquote>\n<p>Whether they\u2019ll be as loud about the other IP\u2019s including Conker is up for debate\u2026 I\u2019d say not likely.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Conker, in particular, hasn&#8217;t really done much since leaving Nintendo. Rare released a remake of <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.nintendolife.com\/games\/n64\/conkers_bad_fur_day\">Conker&#8217;s Bad Fur Day<\/a><\/strong> on Xbox and later on, he appeared on Microsoft&#8217;s HoloLens and was featured in the Xbox One title, <strong>Project Spark<\/strong>. Rare also had plans for a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nintendolife.com\/news\/2019\/05\/former_rare_developer_shares_new_details_about_conkers_cancelled_sequel\">sequel<\/a> to his mature-themed outing on the Nintendo 64, but the game never saw the light of day.<\/p>\n<p>As for Chris, he&#8217;s now at the UK Studio Gory Detail and is focused on <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.nintendolife.com\/games\/switch-eshop\/unlikely_legend_of_rusty_pup\/news\">Rusty Pup<\/a><\/strong> and a new game project.<\/p>\n<p><em>What do you think, though?
