Ape Escape Originape Soundtracks in a Box vinyl preorders open
Preorders open at Cartridge Thunder for Ape Escape Originape Soundtracks in a Box by Soichi Terada, including four analog records.
❝Ape Escape marked a significant milestone for the PlayStation, as it was the first game to require use of the PlayStation's DualShock (analog) controller. In Ape Escape, the use of the analog sticks goes beyond camera rotation and acts as an extension of Kakeru's (Spike's) own character, controlling his many gadgets like the stun club, time net, and sky flyer. It's a unique form of control that, really, didn't become popularized until the release of the Nintendo Wii. It feels like a distinctly Japanese design, the sort of off-the-wall design that is either embraced or rejected on a global scale. In Ape Escape's case, the mechanic caught on. ❞ cartridgethunder.com
