| Editorial Review: Amazon.co.uk Review:: In a nutshell: The monkeys are back to put the Wii Remote though its pacing, with more puzzles, more features, more party games and, most importantly, more fun (and bananas). The lowdown: They're monkeys, they're trapped in giant hamster balls and, unlike the recent Super Monkey Ball Adventure, they're super. This is Super Monkey Ball 3 in all but name, with the same mix of single player puzzles and party games as the original two games. As before the puzzle levels simply have you trying to navigate your monkey through a maze without falling off, except you don't control the ball itself but tilt the whole game world around it. The big difference now of course is that get to use the Wii Remote, which is perfect for the extremely subtle movements necessary for game. New features include a jump command (either the 'A' button or by actually flicking the controller upwards) and a number of boss battles that will test your monkey-in-a-ball controlling skills to the limit. Most exciting moment: As well as seeing the return of party game favourites such as Monkey Target and Monkey Race, Banana Blitz also features brand new concepts such as Monkey Fencing (where you jab into the screen with your remote) and Monkey Hurdles (where you have to pump the Remote up and down as if you were running). There are 50 party games in total and all use the Remote in a different way. Since you ask: Sega have said that all the characters from the previous games will make an appearance in the new game. There are also new ones planned too, including a female monkey named YaYa and a new simian scientist character. The bottom line: Super monkeys return to form in their biggest game yet. -HARRISON DENT |

Rating:  - Controller nightmareMy 12 year old daughter was given this game for Christmas and we gave it a whirl on Boxing Day. Admittedly I'm not a dedicated gamer and neither is she although we've both played a number of different Wii games. The control on these games is frightful - we tried 10 of the mini games and gave up in total frustration. The instructions on how to use the controllers in each mini game seem clear enough but the reality of actually doing it is another thing altogether. The games themselves are pretty ... Read More Rating:  - Great fun!I bought this game for my 6 year old daughter, when she first tried to play it she found it dificult to control and I thought that she wouldn't want to play it again. How wrong I was, this has become her favourite Wii game and can keep her amused for hours and me too! It's great to have a game that we can play together and enjoy, we find ourselves shouting or laughing when we fall off a ledge, moving bridge, mushroom or whatever we are trying to move over. Other reviewers have commented that it's rather ... Read More Rating:  - Good!i would recommend this game if your a smb fan. Although it is frustrating to control when u play it for the first time but u soon get used to it. The reason i have rated it 4 stars is cos u cant play 2 or more players on the stages which is a bit dissapointing but overall i think its a good game Rating:  - Decent. Could have been so much better!Super Monkey Ball : Banana Blitz comprises two very different modes. The single player game, much like Marble Madness and true to it's GameCube heritage, and the new multi-player party games, which attempt to capture the spirit of Wii Sports in providing quick and simple gameplay for all the family. Despite offering around 60 unique party games, the multi-player modes left much to be desired. Between myself and a few friends, we managed to find just two games with any kind of appeal (namely ... Read More Rating: - BrilliantI was nearly put off this game because I read the other reviews. But because I saw it in the sale and my sister said it was good I bought it and I am so glad I did. There are 50 mini games to choose from and some are harder or last longer than others but then it means my children of 3 and 6 years can join in. But this doesn't mean that adults won't enjoy it too. Definately worth the money. |
