Nah, DKC holds up really well even today. I find a lot of 2D games do.. with the right emulation. Most of the early 3D games are an eyesore though.

On consoles... Starfox, Metal Gear Solid, Resident Evil, Goldeneye, Mario 64. On the PC Doom 3, Far Cry.

I agree it does hold up well. But it's not a terribly complex game from a technical perspective.
They achieved what they did by using powerful workstations to have extremely high quality (for the time) 2D art assets... It wasn't a technically demanding game on the SNES like StarFox was, as it didn't require any secondary processors to aid in the processing of the game.

That said... It was still fantastic. I remember the day it came out, I couldn't put it down for months.

First GPU-accelerated games (voodoo) were in a new league.

They truly were. Especially when they leveraged GLIDE.
