10 Beloved Cult Classic Video Games That Desperately Deserve Sequels

1. Conker’s Bad Fur Day

To this day, I can’t look at squirrels without thinking about this damned game. The N64 had its fair share of titles incorrectly dismissed as childish, but the Japanese giants broke the mould when they let Rare loose with this monster.

We knew Conker as a background character in Diddy Kong Racing who offered nothing more than another cuddly little character driving around to foil the big bad – then everything changed, dramatically.

The foul mouthed, alcoholic red squirrel stumbled around his very own adventure game in the hopes of reuniting with his girlfriend, Berri, and avoiding a lifetime propping up a table thanks to his diminutive stature. In short, it was genius.

In control of Conker, we encountered Nazi-esque teddy bears, p*ssed off wasps, and an anthropomorphic, opera singing turd in a story that broke every rule the Nintendo 64 had made for us. We even met the cat hating Grim Reaper who utterly despised us.

Conker's Big Reunion just isn’t enough - we need a full sequel with more profanity, more pop culture references, and maybe a little less faecal matter.

Think you know of a game more deserving of a sequel? Comment away, and be judged for all eternity.
