Favourite 90s platformer?

For me the nostalgia glasses are turned up to the max for Crash Bandicoot.
I love the character designs, and the music is an absolute bop to listen to. (Got the first games theme as my ringtone even at 27!)
And I enjoyed a good challenge with some of its levels. The bosses were neat and I thought it was just an unusual neat idea that you jump on boxes to progress rather than punching a block for a fireflower.
You?

Donkey Kong Country 2 will always be the pinnacle of 2D Platforming.

If it's got platformer elements, then it's a platformer, right? Yes? Then Castlevania: Symphony of the Night is it for me.
I won't say it's my favorite, but I didn't see it mentioned, yet, and it definitely deserves at least one mention: Earthworm Jim
If it's got platformer elements, then it's a platformer, right?
Yes!
But I also argue that the second half of '89 counts as 90's and that Wonder Boy III: The Dragon's Trap was the best platformer I played in first half of the decade.

Mega Man X. The first one for SNES.
It was such an evolutionary leap forward from the previous MM games. Everything was bigger and better. The graphics, the music, the controls. It blew my mind at the time.

Don't know about 90s, but Jet Set Willy was pretty great in the 80s
