In general, collectathons are not my preferred form of platformer. So the fact that Donkey Kong 64 has multiple characters that it requires you to switch between to get different collectables, even though those collectables are easy reachable with any character, makes the bulk of this game not very enjoyable to me. However, I do have very fond memories of playing the third person shooter multiplayer in this as a kid! It's a very weird inclusion, giving all the Kongs various nut and fruit shooting guns, but it turned out to be tons of fun and the saving grace of this game for me!
