There were 3 DKC games, the first one was released in 1994, around the same time as sonic&knuckles. Donkey Kong Country 3 was released after Super Mario 64 and Crash Bandicoot.

There's still The Last Story yet to come, but Xenoblade Chronicles is certainly a contender. So is Kirby: Return to Dreamland and Rhythm Heaven Fever.

a meta thought:
Wouldn't the dreamcast's stellar launch line-up technically also serve as a fitting swan song? To its parent, as well as itself.
