Stamina Master is by far the most brutal monkey ball stage ever created. I was able to clear the new version of it (without taking shortcuts) as the moving blocks were modified/made bigger. But when I played it in original stage mode and discovered that the blocks were smaller, I said screw this I'm launching down to the goal hoping I rip the tape eventually
I just beat SMB1 Expert some time ago. I think the day after I attempted to go do the same thing with SMB2 expert now that I found a way to beat Sieve, albeit it requires jumping, at least to me, but my computer gave up after beating Corkscrew.
With the jumping ability is a piece of cake, run jump and jump again and voilà 😂 I also did it with no jumping but it's harder u gotta pay attention to the floors and memorize your path as u go
@@zanmolecules4105 it was a shock running into this level's difficulty spike the first time, after years of playing the original. Even my sister who was playing through the story mode for the first time straight up said *fuck this level" and skipped it. However, I've found original stage version to be a bit easier, not sure if it being longer makes it a little less steep.
I cleared SMB2 Marathon with ~40 falls, and 20 of them were in Dizzy System. I have no clue what they did to that stage, but it's the most tedious stage in the entire game to me, I also randomly glitched through the air a few times haha. I also found Cross Floors and Conical Slider quite difficult even though they were simple in the original. And in general, the fact that it's really hard to just walk in a straight line has made many once easy stages surprisingly difficult.
@@Valhalla05 after playing it many many times for the golden banana i feel more comfortable passing it. Thanks! I still gotta do the smb2 marathon, seems like it's gonna be hard 99 fall outs in 140 stages meaning don't fall once in each stage. Or twice in 70. Some stages are freaking random like launchers etc
So far, I found myself hating Sieve the most, even with Helper Mode on. I kept getting knocked off by those damn things even when rocketing straight forward
Helix is often mentioned, but I really didn't find that one difficult. If you just go at medium speed, it's pretty easy to keep your balance. Levels like Long Torus or Soft Cream are much, MUCH harder in my opinion.
(Un)fortunately I got the green goal on Synchronized by accident so I didn't get to experience the pain of Helix. Personally, I can't clear Catwalk or Golden Banana Strata. Easily the toughest stages to me. I must've gotten lucky on Dark Banana Twin Basin, since it only took me a couple of tries. I couldn't beat Dark Banana Swing Bar Long for some time, but once you figure out the slope physics, and that you just have to move diagonally to stay on the swing bar without falling off, it becomes very easy and consistent.
@Zan Molecules Oh my sweet summer child....Play the original Arthropod on Super Monkey Ball 2 for the Gamecube. You'll see what people are talking about. They made it much easier this time around. You know how you are on just one big spinning wheel? Well in the original you have to navigate five skinny wheels that are GAPPED. So you have to skip across without falling through or overshooting the last wheel WHILE dodging Arthropod's legs. And also you know how the goal is already halfway up the wheel in Banana Mania? Well guess what. In the original, the goal starts at the very BOTTOM of the wheel at the start, so once you finally manage to stick the landing on the last wheel, you then have to wait way longer than the remake and have to continuously dodge the stomping legs. You're also constantly fighting with the camera as Arthropod relentlessly spins the wheel towards itself, thus repeatedly spinning your view backwards while you're desperately trying to watch and focus on the goal eventually coming up. And even then its very easy to miss the goal as it passes and roll off or get yeeted by the stomps as you chase it down. Its annoying enough getting to the last wheel without falling through or overshooting or getting knocked off by the legs. Fuck that level. I'll see you in hell Arthropod. *end rant*
i've been playing the game recently and i felt every one of these even having not played the originals too much. Though i can't say strada was all that painful, that one was really fun in particular for some reason. Still haven't beat original air hockey and dark banana twin basen. Gold banana mad rings was by far the most painful that i've beaten, in my winning attempt i got knocked up in the air super high but was able to land on the next platform. edit: also exam-c is piss easy compared to a lot of these stages y'all crazy
A lot of the stages in banana mania are harder then how they were in the original games like I spent 2 months yes 2 months trying to beat sieve in story mode and it’s because of the camera and the movement in the game
The game is very hard even with the jump, helper mode and no lives. I tried doing as much of challenge mode as I could without the helper, skip, or jump, but gave up after expert in both games. In smb1, I was always getting bounced off by the bumpers in excursion and equipped the jump to easily beat it, but still struggled with the narrow curve beam in exam C, but eventually beat it without the helper and up to the extra stages, which I used the helpers and was only able to beat master with the helpers. In smb2, I struggled through the expert mode, but eventually beat it and made it to the extra stages, which I skipped a few of them. I was able to beat master mode without the helper, but used the helper and skipped half the extra stages, and was only able to beat dizzy system and destiny with the helpers. Still haven't started marathon yet
So for my strat for... Strata Golden Bananas, start with the camera sensitivity set to [player's preference, mine's 1]. Once the herculean task of landing on the last strip and ensuring the ball will stay in place for long enough is pulled, go into the options menu. Then switch the sensitivity to 5, exit out, then quickly rotate the camera to face the path. Then quickly go back to the options to turn the sensitivity down to 1. Afterwards realign the camera so that you have as straight of a path forward as you can and then just gun it to the last few bananas.
Strata in Golden Banana was the only stage I had to skip with mark as cleared. Swing Bar Long in dark banana was rough but got it after 20 minutes. Twin Basins in Dark Banana took me the longest until I watched a video on how to do it. The first half is super easy and repeatable but the last half is pure luck.
In all honesty, I was expecting OSM Air Hockey to be higher, but when I saw Twin Basin in DBM on the top spot, I slumped in my seat and said: "OH.......RIGHT.......THAT SPAWN OF THE DISTORTION WORLD. I HAVE NO ARGUMENTS ANYMORE.". Really, though, that stage is the reason you'll NEED to turn the Jump Option on. Tell me I'm wrong, start to play the stage yourself, come back to me, and apologize if you please. NOTHING WILL CHANGE MY MIND. Jeff Compass, you actually made me realize how much this series has tested, trained, and tormented my reflexes since I was FIVE YEARS OLD, and yet, you made me understand that sometimes, being masochistic, and putting yourself through the physics-based torture that is the Super Monkey Ball series, is the proper way of making your skills as sharp as the tip of a tack. Thanks for making my addiction of this game(to the point of 100% completion, no less....yeah, I told you I was addicted), seem more natural & justified. I really needed someone to prove that to me. Enjoy my Subscription for this, my good man.
Fantastic video!! I definitely agree with most of these, I managed to beat Dark Banana Twin Basin! so that feels good, Long Torus, Stamina Master and Helix i doubt i'll ever do
I believe that I got really lucky on strata golden bananas because I somehow beat it first try. I thought to myself "wow, I'm getting pretty good at this game" and then proceeded to really struggle with it in smb2 master mode
Lol dude I loved your super monkey ball 2 top ten where every time you would say the name of a level, you would immediately go off. Like you say the name and then you say how much you despise it and how you thing it wasn’t tested and how you hate spherical stages. Glad to have this video come across
Its pretty challenging on Gamecube but you get used to it relatively quickly if you're experienced enough. Exam-C is a LOT tougher on Xbox but doable. However it is damn near unplayable on PS2.
Cylinders the intended strat going across the rotating cylinders instead of jumping past is the hardest level in my opinion. If you just jump past its pretty easy though.
After a month of playing this game, I was able to beat smb1 Expert extra without helpers or skipping and cleared all the missions for expert mode. Still struggling with Stanima Master in Master mode without helpers (with helpers it isn't too hard). Never played the original game and never made it this far in smbDX, so I don't have much experience with this level. I did beat marathon mode in both games, but not without helpers. In smb2, I already beat story mode. I did manage to beat all the missions in Advanced mode, and am getting better with some of the stages I've struggled with. I've only made it to switch inferno in the original game when I was a child, and in DX, I could never beat Tracks (smb1 stage). Mainly struggling with World 8 stages at this point. I played all the special modes, but used helpers and skipped some of the tougher stages until I get better at the game.
Ive had this game for a week and a half and it just took me a bit over a half an hour to beat dark banana twin basins lmaooooo At least for me it wasn't the hardest I've had like 5 levels that took more than an hour, narrow peaks dark banana took me longer for some reason
My hardest stage is Original Stamina Master Edit: OG Stamina Master is my 2nd hardest my hardest is Golden Banana Strata Edit-er: I swapped the placements of Golden Strata and Original Stamina Master
Stamina master was hard until i decided to jump to the goal 😂 and it worked perfectly but that was on the original stamina master haven't tried the other one in smb1 looks farther may not work
Beat most of these though I haven't played helix yet. Long Torus and original Catwalk gave me the most trouble tbh. There are some real horrible stages in this game. But ye, most of these on here are my worst ones, too.
They really need to get rid of helpers. I played the original so much and helpers is like a sacrilegious feature. They kinda took some effort out of the minigames as well which was disappointing, that and you can’t play them in Xbox live or online. The accel difference really is a pain too, beginners won’t notice but right away the increased movement speed forwards AND BACKWARDS (stupid) makes some levels way harder than the original and make some hard stages easier. 8 maybe 8.5/10 all things considered
I think this is fair. The helpers don’t bother me too much because I think it’s easy enough not to use them, but I do think kids playing the game for the first time will probably take advantage of it, which hurts the feel and vibe of what SMB should be.
@@JeffCompass accessibility features are only a good thing. I actually grew up with New Super Mario Bros Wii, and yeah, sometimes i would use the super helper thing to deal with levels i was having trouble with, but even as a kid that looks like a blotch on your record, so you're able to come back and do it without the help, having gained experience from the later levels and just with time in general. As long as the game makes it clear it's either "not the intended experience" or makes it clear there's still more to do if you take the training wheels off (what banana mania does), it's good.
You're doing the second half of Dark Twin Basins COMPLETELY wrong! You're supposed to enter in-between the bananas at the corner, not use speed to enter the side part at full throttle.
Am I the only one that finds helix.... not difficult at all? When I arrived to it on master I went "oh god I'm stuck". I ended up beating it on like my seventh try. Legit thought it was a fluke so I went into practice mode to try again... beat it on my first try. I don't know. To me other stages gave me much, much more issues than helix.
I beat twin basis Dark Banana Mode under 12 seconds. Its not the hardest. And i havnt even best the story mode yet. There is soon many harder levels than that one. Catwalk i speedrun aswell.
@@kaelanmcalpine2011 they are really light and cheap feeling. So what I've gone ahead and done is take some wheel weights that go on the inside of car wheel rims (around 20oz worth) and properly weighted it on the sides where the rumble motors used to be in the old controllers
The controls are as precise as the GameCube ones, its just that the analog stick deadzones are different, if you want GameCube like sticks you have to set it to a square according to people Mad Rings isnt RNG, and so isnt Air Hockey Twin Basin in Dark Banana mode aint that hard. If you use Helper mode to learn the Dark Bananas positions and practice you can definitely finish it without pulling your hair out. Stamina Master in Original mode got to be the actual hardest one Strata on Golden Banana Mode is hard for one reason, for some reason slightly tilting the stick moves the CAMERA along with the stage, making it very disorienting, Hoping there's a 1.0.1 patch to add a toggle for that or just a mod

Bridge Master and Exam C: Are we a joke to you?
yes
It's possible to skip most of bridge master by building up speed on some of the straight parts. That makes the level a lot more doable.
Really good list. This game is a weird mix of good and bad, the controls majorly disappointed me tho
Beat most of these though I haven't played helix yet. Long Torus and original Catwalk gave me the most trouble tbh.
