Super Monkey Ball: Banana Mania Nintendo Switch Review - Is It Worth It?

Literally one of my favorite things was reaching max speed in Monkey Ball 2 and seeing the sparks fly and hearing the ball sound speed up. It’s honestly really sad they removed the sound/effect, feels like something is missing 😔

Multiplayer, sound design, and the butchering of Monkey Target is really heartbreaking. I really hope they consider updates in the nearby future. It might just take away from the bitter cons the game has.

You guys did a better job with this review then IGN. That was a fair review. However, we have to be very grateful that this game is releasing on PC because I can bet you anything that the modding community is going to get Banana Mania right next to the original games from physics, animations, to the target mini game.

As someone who’s never played a Monkey Ball game prior, this seems like the perfect place to start to me, since most of this review’s main sticking points seem to come from the lens of a longtime fan. Though considering how jam-packed October is in terms of game releases, I might wait a bit before picking it up.
