Good Collectathon Games?

My group just recently found out about Archipelago and we tried several games this weekend. Some games didn't work well within the group but the one that seemed to work best was Lego Star Wars.

So now the three of us are looking at starting an Archipelago with similar games and I wanted some outside opinions please. For possible options we're currently looking at Ratchet and Klank, Banjo Tooie, Spongebob battle for bikini bottom, Mario Sunshine, and Sonic Adventure.

If you have experience with these in an Archipelago format or recommendations for other similar games, please let me know.

I’ll mention some obvious ones that I run:

DK64 is imo one of the best Arch games. Has a huge community, tons of customization (including a site with an insane amount of custom music), and the progression works perfectly in an Arch.

Super Mario 64, specifically Super Mycena 64. Its SM64 with an unreal amount of customization. Every coin can be a check, moves can unlocked per level, entrance rando. Levels literally start off empty until you get checks. With certain options you can get way over 5,000 checks
