Conker's Bad Fur Day - Race A Mode (Actual N64 Capture)

[Note: This video and description were originally posted on Youtube on September 27, 2019.]

This is a capture of me playing the Race A multiplayer mode in Conker's Bad Fur Day on the Nintendo 64. This is not an emulator. This footage was captured directly from my Nintendo 64 using an actual Conker's Bad Fur Day cartridge.

This is the last multiplayer mode that I needed to upload from this game. The Race mode is based upon the lava hoverboard racing section from the single-player adventure. You can swing a melee weapon to hit other racers and pick up two items on the track: the rocket and nitrous boost. This mode isn't very challenging, but if you hit a wall at full speed you'll die instantly.

This mode has two different track variants: A and B. The A variant veers to the left while the B variant veers to the right at the fork in the track. I'm showing off the A track in this video while racing against seven AI opponents on bastard difficulty.

This mode feels like an afterthought that was quickly thrown together after the other multiplayer modes were completed. The races are short and simple, so there isn't much replay value. That's why I hardly ever play this mode, and why I didn't bother to post any footage of this mode sooner.

Recorded with the Hauppauge HD PVR and the official N64 S-video cable. I used a Toshiba model D-R550 DVD Recorder to upconvert the N64's native 240p signal to 480i so that the Hauppauge could capture the console's audio/video signal.

I'm using a standard Nintendo 64 controller.
