Played this again today to see how fast I could obtain all of the PSN trophies for the PS4 version specifically and I was able to finish in around 4½ hours. It's always fun to revisit one of my all-time favorite games while having a few modern emulation conveniences and a trophy list to dedicate the goblin brain to. I wind up playing Ape Escape every year or so but now that I've cleared the trophy lists for the PSN emulation I'll be going back to my old physical copy for future playthroughs.

Enjoyment - 7/10
Difficulty - 2/10

A trip down memory lane. Achieved the platinum in five hours.

Capturaba monos hasta que ellos capturaron mi corazón.

I don't know what to say about Ape Escape.
I've only played the original version now, 25 years after its release. And it's clear that, by today's standards, both the controls and the camera are terrible.
But man, this game has personality. Even though I struggled with its strange gameplay (I'll never be able to row that boat properly!), I got to the end. If you're willing to overlook all these limitations, it's worth it.

Clasicazo de mi infancia que he jugado infinidad de veces con mis primos. Pensaba que había envejecido peor, pero salvo por la engorrosa cámara, se sigue disfrutando como en el 99. Divertidísimo y cortito, que te lo gozas en una tarde o en un par.
