      Yeah and only the first one did it properly. 2 and 3 just made the music quieter in terms of volume, Ape Escape 1 actually took away instruments and left just a quiet basic tempo of the music left. It is freaking awesome!

      It's not underrated. Nor is it overlooked. It's in this wierd Gray area where it's not famous and it's not criminally overlooked. This leads it to not be talked about much. It just exists. It's something everyone knows about but nobody talks about for some reason. Like the goldilocks of recognition. The perfect amount of recognition to just not be talked about.

    Ape Escape is one of my all time favorite games. I love that you played Crumbling Castle in the background of the video, which is my favorite song of the game.
    Note on the minigames, as solo playing games, they are kind of meh, but in 2 player, they are a lot of fun, especially for people back then who didn't have many games to play.
    A (ski) racing game, a fighting game and an arcade shooter might not seem like a lot today, but back then it added a lot of variety.

    For those who are curious, the composer for Ape Escape's OST is Soichi Terada.
    If you've listened to some of his work around the release of this game, you can hear the similarities between his work and this game.
    For reference, check out his album Acid Face.

    While you did mention it briefly, one thing I found interesting to learn recently is it turns out the game got a separate English dub in the UK with British voice actors. I also know this happened with Ape Escape 2 as well and there's a very weird thing to note about the version of the game that's available as a download on PSN. The version of Ape Escape 2 on PSN is the European version so it uses the British dub, but the trophies in the game still reference the American dub, making me think someone at Sony America put the wrong ISO file on PSN and just couldn't be arsed to change it later (or at least offer the option to switch the dubs, because one reason why I want to play the American dub of Ape Escape 2 is they got the original voice of Ash Ketchum to voice the main character in that game, which makes the Pokemon reference in this video's title even more amusing).

      @Poison Licensing issues with Ubisoft is the reason Sony couldn't sell the U.S. English version of Ape Escape 2 in the U.S.; hence, they were forced to use the UK version.
