It is a platformer, and a great one.
Also, the SNES DKC games may have had graphics prerendered on SGI workstations, but the actual graphics you see are being drawn by the SNES, so it's not actually outdoing what the SNES can do or something... Nintendo's advertising back in '94 was a big disingenuous on that point. It worked of course, and the game looks fantastic, but it's not actually a 32-bit game on a 16-bit console, literally.
And anyway, DK64 looks great.
