Yoshi, Kirby, Splatoon (Nintendo confirmed it will be a platformer in the singleplayer campaign)

R & C isn't even a platformer. Insomniac Games also makes games for other platforms anyway, so they aren't part of Sony.

DK64 is the worst 3D platformer "Nintendo" ever made. And if you're counting Crash and Spyro you should also count Banjo-Kazooie and Conker.

I've never cared to play a Kirby or Yoshi game so my bad.

Ratchet and clank is 100% a platformer though. I've played like 7 games from the franchise (which has been wholly owned by Sony since day one, not just bought at a later time ala gears) and there are tons of platofrming elements. What made it stand out was the witty sarcastic humor and the wide array of inventive weaponry.

 

But now that I think about it, it could also be called a third person shooter as well. So I'm gonna take back gears from Microsoft and add TPS to Sony's list of genres they dominate at. Thank you (:

No, you spend by far the most time beating up enemies.

I guess Metroid is a platformer as well.
