Ape Escape is an important franchise for PlayStation. It was Sony’s first big hit that they owned 100% of. It was one of Japan Studio’s first games. It served as one of PlayStation’s mascots for over a decade. And there were great games in this series.
I’m still salty about not getting an English release of Million Monkeys. On another note, Ape Escape Move was such a missed opportunity. Ape Escape’s gameplay was just asking for (preferably optional) motion controls, but instead they made a rail shooter.
Ape escape was the first game that got me to buy a dual shock controller. The game wouldn’t work without it.
First game that required the original dualshock controller, since it played entirely with the analogue sticks.
They were like Sony’s Rabbids.
I miss this series. Wish they would remake/port the originals.
They’re pretty much all on psplus right now I believe
3 is noticeably missing but even ignoring that s lot of the weird games are missing.
Throwback to my childhood right here.
