Well I've played just about every single decent 3D platformer out there (I had to since that's pretty much all I owned during the N64 days), and I can very easily tell the difference in speed between DK and everything else. You really did move like a potato in that game, while in Mario and BK you were always doing jumps, flips, flying, etc., which really gave the games a fast pace. Not as fast as the 2D Mario games of course, but many times faster than DK64.
