Retro_Link Posted September 16, 2006 Posted September 16, 2006 The boxart is awesome, great how they've included the Wii-mote!! The style of the Wii box is fantastic also!
DCK Posted September 17, 2006 Posted September 17, 2006 Yeah, the template looks pretty good. Nice, simple and pretty cool.
fatnickc Posted September 17, 2006 Posted September 17, 2006 The NGamer about SMB: BB article is really good, and has made me very excited about this game. I've yet to complete Expert of SMB 1, but I still play it quite often, especially Monkey Target.

I've yet to complete Expert of SMB 1, but I still play it quite often, especially Monkey Target. There's a disagreement between NGamer's preview and Revolution's preview; NGamer states that you press A to jump, whilst Rev say you flick up to jump. Which one is correct???

Which one is correct??? I'd assume it's A, because it would be all too easy to accidentally flick whilst tilting a level quickly. I could be wrong, though.

Dante Posted September 22, 2006 Posted September 22, 2006 Site is now online. Screenshots US Site is also online.
Nintenchris Posted September 22, 2006 Posted September 22, 2006 Well done Dante... again! This game looks AWESOME i cant wait to pick this up with my Wii on launch day!
Nintendork Posted September 22, 2006 Posted September 22, 2006 Basically, this is easily the best Monkey Ball ever. No need for a new engine the developpers have spent loads of time working on the controls, levels and mini games. 50 mini games, from what I've heard the controls are responsive and highly suitable in all motions/directions.. and the visuals are good. This is worth £40 I say. I'd also put money on it being in the top 3 after launch. It is everything touch and roll would have been.
flameboy Posted September 23, 2006 Posted September 23, 2006 Loving the new batch of screenshots, from the US site. Loved the first monkey ball so much, so much so I didn't even but the second one. but this looks an essential purchase for me, it has to be THE must have for the console (after zelda of course) Cannot wait for monkey target, was a Broomgrove Hall favourite in my first year at uni!!!!
Kurtle Squad Posted September 23, 2006 Posted September 23, 2006 Hahahaha...Aiai uses his falling noise on the site Awesome. I really wanna get this at launch now but I need to buy loads of Xmas presents (inc my semi in-laws) and to get to my gfs in the 1st place (£200) and spending money for when there (not that i'll spend THAT much) AND for keep for my parents & the Wii n all that in the 1st place.
Guest Stefkov Posted September 23, 2006 Posted September 23, 2006 played my first monkey ball game 2 days ago, in my free time in college, a fiend has the ds version, and i really liked what i played. The controls were pretty cool. I may pick this up, however i doubt i will, i never got into super monkey ball
Kurtle Squad Posted September 23, 2006 Posted September 23, 2006 But the DS ver is supposed to be pants compared to the real things. I'm avoiding it.
flameboy Posted September 23, 2006 Posted September 23, 2006 yeah i deliberatly avoided the ds version, cos it was meant to be rubbish didnt want to wreck my the vision of how perfect the cube versions were.
21st century cowboy Posted September 23, 2006 Posted September 23, 2006 This game looks amazing. It's a no brainer for me, this has to be bought with the system for the 50 mini games alone. Never quite got into SMB, I found it a bit difficult and just handed it back in.
triforce_keeper Posted September 23, 2006 Posted September 23, 2006 This....Game....Is....Going....To....ROCK!!! Screens look AMAZING!
mcj metroid Posted September 23, 2006 Posted September 23, 2006 yeah that monkey target screen has given me hope again.Now i would like to see monkey fight but i guess boxing is the same thing
fukudasolokomalakikenanze Posted September 24, 2006 Posted September 24, 2006 Would it be a given that games such as Monkey Billiards and Monkey Bowling will be making a return in Banana Blitz?
flameboy Posted September 24, 2006 Posted September 24, 2006 Would it be a given that games such as Monkey Billiards and Monkey Bowling will be making a return in Banana Blitz? I think it should be a no brainer that they will return. They were so popular in the previous versions, it would be mental not to (ok abit OTT). I can't wait to soar through the sky on monkey target with the wiimote.
AshMat Posted September 24, 2006 Posted September 24, 2006 Can't wait, though im only getting Red Steel and Excite Truck on launch day, this will be soon after
mcj metroid Posted September 24, 2006 Posted September 24, 2006 Would it be a given that games such as Monkey Billiards and Monkey Bowling will be making a return in Banana Blitz? monkey bowling is seen in the trailer so thats there but billiards isnt but im sure it will.
demonmike04 Posted September 24, 2006 Posted September 24, 2006 Watched the trailer over at IGN for the japanese version..bloody amazing.. DARTS!
mcj metroid Posted September 24, 2006 Posted September 24, 2006 ya i know and the race looks really fast. Still would like to see monkey target in motion though
flameboy Posted September 24, 2006 Posted September 24, 2006 Can't wait, though im only getting Red Steel and Excite Truck on launch day, this will be soon after No Zelda?!!!!!
solitanze Posted October 6, 2006 Posted October 6, 2006 http://www.sega.com/gamesite/bananablitz/ Does the game only have 64 single player stages or is this just for the NEW "one player mode" and the game has the traditional 100+ stages as well? 64 stages for the entire single player game is an insult to the series. It needs more and I hope there are.
