Yeah.

Moreso in the style of 1 than 2. Loved Tomba! 1.

Gen 5. had so many good platformers of lesser renown.

Also PS1 was a better system for platformers than N64 and there's nothing anyone can do about it.

N64 struggled with platformers, for the most part

agreed on tomba 1 though, 2 felt different

klonoa was another good series, though i only ever got to play demos of them

Beyond the obvious big name ones N64 did have a few genre gems at least. Like Space Station Silicon Valley.

Saturn struggled even more although Clockwork Knight 1 and 2 were good. Plus Nights into Dreams if we're counting that as a platformer without platforms which I usually do.

But yeah Klonoa was good I agree.

the goemon for 64 was... mildly fun? it wasn't great but it was okay at least

sadly i have never even picked up a saturn controller

if i had one i'd get burning rangers because i seriously wanted that game as a kid
