Ape Escape is an important franchise for PlayStation. It was Sony's first big hit that they owned 100% of. It was one of Japan Studio's first games. It served as one of PlayStation's mascots for over a decade. And there were great games in this series.

I'm still salty about not getting an English release of Million Monkeys. On another note, Ape Escape Move was such a missed opportunity. Ape Escape's gameplay was just asking for (preferably optional) motion controls, but instead they made a rail shooter.
