Ummm ... have you played any of the newer Yakuza games? Don't get me wrong, 3 is still Yakuza and has some of my favorite characters in it, but it is *rough* by today's standards, especially when compared to the Kiwami remakes, 0, 6 and 7.

I've actually never played Ape Escape.
I mostly just remember this from Game Grumps.
Black cat? Silver Gamecube controllers? Your place is what my dreams are made of.
But your platforming issues sound like the reason I can't get into Bionic Commando. Yup. Exact same thing. Leaving this comment here as is.
