Super Monkey Ball: Banana Blitz
I can't believe a thread hasn't been made about this game yet! It looks, quite simply, AMAZING. Here's a quote from IGN's new preview of the game:
Discuss. Jam it back in, in the dark. |
I've never played a Monkey Ball game before. Are they any good?
There's nowhere I can't reach.

They're a bunch of fun. It's nothing too in-depth, but it's definitely fun for hours and hours of light gameplay and minigames.
This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it. |
How can you not like Monkey Ball.
The main puzzle mode is the most fantastic thing EVER, as capo said it's light stuff that you can play over and over again. The minigames are pretty good, although the only one I really liked was Monkey Target (even though there are only like three maps...). I don't have enough money to get this at launch, but I definitely will later on. Monkey Ball is a PERFECT match for the Wii controller. I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body? |
I haven't really checked on the series as a whole, though. I was speaking idiomatically. |
I'm wary of how Banana Blitz will turn out, since the most important part of the games are the controls, and bad things happen when they're not perfect; cf. Super Monkey Ball Deluxe for the Xbox. If the controls are handled well, the game could be a natural fit for the Wii, although it might get tiring after a while trying to balance the remote perfectly. Then again, it could also turn out be a disgusting, unresponsive mess. I'm hopin' for the possibility of being able to control the game with the nunchucku too. How ya doing, buddy? |
Having played it before, I can't say I really liked it that much. The only things that were even worth the effort of plugging in a controller was the arcade style shooting thing and the rolling around punching the shit out of other monkeys. I can see it being more involving for the Wii, and I really hope it delivers.
FELIPE NO |
If the single player mode here really delivers, it'll be the best game ever. With FIFTY mini-games it's already confirmed best multiplayer game ever. Hopefully for the main game they include the "challenge mode" or whatever it was called where two players could play it at the same time. What, you don't want my bikini-clad body? |
At least I HOPE! Jam it back in, in the dark. |
Thanks a lot IGN. Reading their preview makes me want to buy a Wii at launch for this game alone. I loved the original game on the GC. Too bad about the sequel.
Must resist the urge to buy. Oh yeah, it seems the switches are gone. Thank god for that! There's nowhere I can't reach. |
