'Ape Escape' is the mostest funnestest platformer on the Playstation.
The level design and intuitive "monkey A.I." make for quite an enjoyable romp.
The best feature of course, is the innovative use of both analog sticks for use with the various gadgets. The "propeller" that you activate by quickly rotating the right stick is cool, but my favorite is the "RC car". You run around with the left stick while controlling the car with the right stick. There is one stage where you walk across ice while steering the car under the ice, driving over switches on the ground and stuff. Just plain coolNES.

The unlockable mini-games are great too (especially "Monkey Boxing", where you throw left/right punches with both analog sticks).

'Ape Escape' is the 'Super Mario 64' of the Playstation (it even kind of looks like a N64 game). It deserves its place as one of Sony's top releases.
The sequel (played briefly) is pretty much just a re-hash of the original game, with all the same gadgets and new level designs, but is a worthwhile sequel none-the-less.

How many are there?
I know some of the series on the PS2 have had new games come out on the PSP (i.e Ridge Racer) do those count as a "port" or is it only a "port" if it's an as direct as possible copy of a console version? :?

It would be hard to make DS ports, because no older games utilised a touch-screen.

No I mean like N64 to DS. Only one I can really think of right at this moment is Super Mario 64 DS. Even though some how I found it alittle better then the N64 version. But if the DS had a joystick I would say this game was perfect.
