    I am a huge fan of the Monkey Ball franchise. I love Super Monkey Ball and Super Monkey Ball 2 on the GameCube, they're great fun and they get obscenely difficult at the high end to ensure that you keep coming back, saying nothing of the incredible mini-games that make up a fair portion of the content. A no-brainer, then, except for that for this remake they chose to use Banana Blitz, the unpopular Wii entry. The mini-games are frankly not up to par with the Originals, nor is the Main Game. Even worse, the Main Game is no longer 2-4 player compatible, meaning that this is effectively a single player game. Wait for an SMB1 or SMB2 remake instead of going for this.

    I never played this one before, kinda wish they did a port of the first two games. Still some good monkey ball game play but the bosses are extremely frustrating and so out of place. Would be significantly better if they were removed.

    So this brings me back to the old school days when it came out for the Gamecube. The game is fun but the levels to me seem a bit cheesy and the multiplayer could have been alot better. Has 7 characters and each with their own stats. So try them all and see which one suits you. Gameplay is similar but some areas of the game can get you frustrated, which is part of the fun but to a certain extent. The campaign levels weren't up to par with what they used to be and movement felt a bit off or awkward. You will need to play levels over and over to make sure you get used to the movements. That's key. Bosses weren't that difficult to beat. If I can remember you weren't able to jump, and now they've integrated it into this game and honestly feel like they've messed it up a bit with it. Again it's a great game to pass time with your family. But this one didn't bring me back into it hard enough that I dont really enjoy it that much. It's great for people that have never played this game.
