There doesn’t seem to be any real reason why certain ones made the cut, where other non motion reliant ones didn’t. It truly is a shame that a few more of the minigames weren't included. Dangerous Route and Space Monkey Attack are some of the better games to try out, long as you have friends around. It feels criminal to not include Monkey Bowling or Monkey Golf, while also including the least fun version of Monkey Target. There are also notable Monkey Ball classics absent, worse given they were present in the Wii version. It never felt like there was much more to do once you’ve completed them once. My group of friends weren’t interested in playing any game more than once. None of these games require motion controls, varying from the alright to the bad. Not that it matters for the HD version it’s been stripped back down to a paltry ten. The original version had 50 of them, apparently a lot of them relied on different uses of the motion controls. Once you’ve completed the main game worlds, or just have some friends over, there are still some mini games to jump into.
I just can’t imagine playing this game with motion controls, especially with the early wiimotes. Honestly, I’m glad I never played the original Wii version. The GameCube (and GBA) originals had you doing this through button controls, the gimmick of Banana Blitz is that it was all motion controls. Instead of controlling the ball directly, you control the 3D maze by tilting it as the ball rolls. You have a Monkey encased in the ball/capsule, navigating courses that require precision, balancing and movement. If you’ve ever played Marble Madness it’s similar in a way. If you’ve played any other Super Monkey Ball games you know exactly what to expect. If a world proves to be too challenging, at least one of the crew can provide a change in approach. Which Monkey you choose comes down to personal choice, each has different stats and sizes.

Across 80 levels (although there’s a few more), you’ll complete a series of levels in a world which ends with a big boss to defeat. A giant ape has stolen the groups bananas and it’s up to AiAi, MeeMee, GonGon, Baby, YanYan and Doctor to take chase, getting them back off of the mysterious figure. Storywise there isn’t really much to Banana Blitz. It’s time to see if Sega are giving the series a fighting chance.
Sega has dusted off this old game as the representative of the Monkey Ball franchise. Super Monkey Ball: Banana Blitz brought the beloved GameCube Super Monkey Ball series to the Wii at launch, leaning into both the motion controls and the party games to mixed results. And with it along came the games that rely on motion controls, filled with party games. When the Wii introduced motion controls, it was a new and fresh way to play games together.
