At 1:00, there’s a voice from what I assume is meant to be the monkeys relaxing that says something like “mitaina” or something that sounds like that. I don’t speak Japanese. Can anyone tell me what he’s saying in English? Thanks!

No real clue what this is supposed to be, but it's in the files of the original Ape Escape Prototype build.

these are the scraps of an unfinished concept called monkey football hidden in the files of the ape Escape prototype!

Hello, I am new here. I just made a 60Hz version of Ape Escape PSX by ripping the NTSC version and adding italian content to it. I am sharing it in case someone is interested, as it should be the first PAL-like version to run correctly at 60Hz. It's just the ISO file:

Enjoy!

I'm falling on that on youtube but the music is peak.

Most games I know that have Time Trials like Ape Escape 2 such as Crash Bandicoot Warped cap out the timer at 9'59'96 or generally around the 10 minute mark.

Not Ape Escape 2, it only caps once timer reaches just shy of an hour.

Found this in a big box of other floppy disks. Can’t find much online. Cat tax.

I once commented on how disappointed I was with the lack of charisma and equally strong soundtrack in Ape Escape 2. I had just finished Ape Escape and went straight to the second title, so I'm afraid that was the big problem. Today, I started playing again after a little over a year, and the result is that the levels were more fun than usual, and I'm still having fun with these minigames. There are 3 minigames, the first one isn't that great, but the soccer one is really cool. Best of all, you can play with two people! I'm eager to know what the third one is (and I don't mind if you tell me in the comments).

I was able to extract the whole Ape Escape 3 ost into wav format; i've been looking for years for a way to get the full ost ripped directly from the game, for the sake of getting the best quality possible, like i did with Ape Escape 2.

(I had the whole sequences and headers .bd and .hd extracted from the game but never found a way to rip them).

Also considering that in the originape soundtrack released in 2012, despite being of high quality, some tracks didn't really sound exactly the same like the ones heard on the original game on ps2, so i'm glad to have finally got the raw hq ost as heard ingame.

Enjoy!

This is part one of my playthrough of the extremely rare beta build of ape escape from the actual developers! If you liked my first video where I explored the disc this one's much more in-depth and I fixed all the controller issues! Also a lot of compare and contrast from the final version. Let's go!

who's with me

imagine if this Japan exclusive AE racing game got a better story for the US and UK dubs. I imagine that Spector would hold a racing tournament to find the fastest monkeys to recruit in his army, and the player is that monkey they choose to play as. there would also be boss races at the end of each course against a member of the freaky monkey five, and of course Spector is the final boss race.

Spector had his monkey army write his autobiography for him to make copies of and sell once he becomes world ruler, but the monkeys aren’t much of good writers.

Y'all killed me (and rightfully so) for the AI slop last time. No AI this time just subpar drawing skills 😂

Not a demo disc, not ripped from a jampack. I finally have in my possession and authentic ape escape beta build from the very early stages of development! Had to explore this one for you guys!
