Prior to last year’s Donkey Kong Bananza, Rare’s 1999 platformer was the sole 3D Donkey Kong game.

Nintendo has announced that cult favorite N64 platformer Donkey Kong 64 is finally joining its Nintendo Classics library on June 4. The N64 emulator was first introduced to the Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack membership tier nearly five years ago, and Nintendo fans have been asking for Rare's 1999 collectathon platformer ever since.

Prior to last year's superb Donkey Kong Bananza, Donkey Kong 64 was the tie-wearing gorilla's one and only 3D outing, and remains an important part of Nintendo's history, even if the game itself has always been pretty divisive. Unlike the British developer's far more universally beloved side-scrolling Donkey Kong Country games, Rare's Donkey Kong 64 sees DK exploring large 3D levels that are absolutely stuffed to the brim with collectible items.
