    This was a little bit upsetting. The price is ok, I would say jts actual value is maybe $25. The story mode is fun, bosses are challenging but the multiplayer mode is disappointing. You cant do the races on multiplayer split screen. They only have multiplayer side games. It's ok but I was looking forward to the multiplayer races like super monkey ball deluxe.

    Great game with many modes which is great for playing in short periods of time. If you enjoy the series on previous consoles you will enjoy having a game like this on the go plus its kid/family friendly.

    This game is so fun to play. I think its great that you actually move the scenery and not the character, makes it a little more challenging.

    Some of my best memories are of my childhood friends racing against the clock to see who could beat who in the game of monkey ball. So excited to see it come back.

    This is a port from a terrible Wii game, but with normal switch controls it is almost as good as the original.

    While not the best entry in the series, Banana Blitz HD is still a must have for fans of Super Monkey Ball. It's also always nice to have Sonic the Hedgehog as a guest character.

    I grew up with Super monkey ball 1 and 2 And while this version isn't that, it is by no means a bad monkeyball game. Yes the original charm isnt there but the levels themselves are fun. The jumping mechanic seems a little cheap but isnt anything that would kill the fun. I was somewhat let down by the inability to play multiplayer when passing the levels and the minigames are not what the originals were. I'm looking at you monkey target. In the end I enjoyed playing it but I would think about the original gamecube titles while I played this which probably isnt the best compliment. Pros Fun levels Classic characters Nice graphics Cons Lacking charm Lackluster multiplayer options Ho hum story mode

    It’s a very simple game that doesn't keep your interests locked in. It’s very simple and repetitive. It was more fun on the Wii several years back. I would say that if you’re not a child, you could probably pass on this game and not feel bad about it.

    It's Monkey Ball on the Switch!! I wish it featured mini games like monkey target. This port is just ok for short rounds of gameplay. Still fun overall if your a fan on the franchise.
