You may notice some new "PNG Tuber" avatars in this video! I'm not replacing the main channel profile, but we did want to experiment with some new ones that move mouths with my talking, and also blink on their own. Let me know what you think! We don't have a lot of expressions yet, but with this method we could definitely make more in the future.

so will you be ranking every stage in banana blitz next or something?
Bro do every Pokémon Game ranked
Not bad at all dude
@muffin8460 5:18
It takes balls to do a ranking like this.
Super Monkey balls you mean?
AYO PAUSE
Ok
And a monkey gotta be in those balls
Literally
2:33 “I’m not a motion control hater”
*is practically known for hating motion controls in every wii game*
Fun fact: Deluxe was so accurate in its physics that literally every single speedrun technique can be done in 2 if you just mod the deluxe stages in. They all function exactly as they did in deluxe if you play them in 2. I’m pretty sure the only reason you had those issues with the controls in deluxe is because you used an Xbox controller instead of a gamecube controller.
fr the deluxe hack of 2 is awesome
12:18 You actually CAN skip the credits in Step & Roll you just have to hold the A button for a few seconds. Which is a little weird but it's something.
Real legends know the series of pain, anger, and most importantly, FRUSTRATION that the old super monkey ball games put on Nathaniel

It's basically both games in one.) Released in 2002, Super Monkey Ball 2 is a bigger, and better version of the already excellent Super Monkey Ball. It has even better stages, and even more party games than the original, making it the preferred version to play at gatherings.
Yep.
This comment looks like it was written by ChatGPT
You like the monkey ball when it is bigger big monkey ball liker like a bigmonkey ball
World record holder of the Xbox version of banana blitz remake here! Disappointed you didn't mention the awesome theme music, became a staple of our house after hours and hours of grinding
Banana Blitz slander will not be tolerated. I grew up with that game and it’s what got me into the series. I honestly loved the motion controls since it felt like you were actually tilting the stage the monkeys were on.
We need a new Super Monkey Ball game it’s been too long for us.
Hopefully we'll get an original game in the style of Banana Mania. That would be awesome.
I once played Monkey Ball and I thought "If monkeys are inside balls, wouldn't that make me a human?" and then I thought again "Wth does that even mean?"
Monkey in ball. Me not in ball. Therefore, me not monkey. 🐒🚫
@@playlistenthusiast yes xd
To be fair. We all start our lives in balls.
Lmao.
@@playlistenthusiastLmao.
My brother and I both LOVED Banana Blitz’s mini games growing up. I’m not joking when I say that we must have played Monkey Wars well over 2 or 3 hundred times
Before having to replace my Wii I got over 1000 plays on Wars 💀
I can't say the same for the vast majority of them, but Monkey Wars was amazing. If they don't add it back in Banana Rumble I ain't gonna be happy
My Spotify Wrapped is FILLED with Monkey Ball music, 320 whopping hours in 2022, almost double my second place album in the top 5
For monkey ball jr, if you press A you can tilt the level more to go a bit faster... took me so long to figure that.
Yeah I didn't realize that until a few years ago, it doesn't help much but at least it's something
@@NathanielBandy I have good news and bad news: the bad news is that this video will be irrelevant pretty soon. However, the good news is we’re getting a new monkey ball game called “Banana rumble” and I ABSOLUTELY can’t wait for you to cover it and hopefully we’ll get trash/Mindblown videos as well!!! Also, I also want you to do those same videos for Paper Mario TTYD Remake and Sonic X Shadow Generations
Super Monkey Ball Adventure pissed me off a plenty but still feels kinda nostalgic! I do miss this series sometimes...
OH MY GOD. Core memory unlocked with Super Monkey Ball Adventure, always had vague memories with that game and never knew what it was. I thought the hub world looked familiar and the style too, and as soon i saw Monkey Cannon, HOLY. THAT is the minigame we played allll the time, this is insane
Love the longer format videos. Much respect for the amount of effort it must take to make these.
Banana Mania was my first Monkey Ball game, and it was so good that I even 100%'d the damn thing. I didn't think a jumpless platformer would be so much fun.
You're good!
100% is crazy. I wanted to off myself halfway thru story mode lol
17:07 I don’t know if you knew this, but you can fling the monkeys at the text and keep them on the screen to get bananas. Gives you something to do for those long, long credits…
Monkey Ball 2 was so much fun. Despite the difficulty at times, it was so fun and charming. I have both Monkey Ball 1 and 2 for the GC to this day, and I got Banana Mania a while back on a huge sale, so I will be playing it at some point😊😊
Considering SEGA and Microsoft had a partnership in the early 2000s with the original Xbox, Deluxe being #1 doesn't surprise me. They were pumping so many good games for the Xbox back then and Deluxe is just one of those.
Bro, I’m just getting into Monkey Ball. I’m so happy this came out just when I’m starting to get into it 😎
Dang, I grew up playing banana blitz on the Wii and loved it. Great memories of that game. Never played other monkey ball though… guess I didn’t know what I was missing out on!
The HD remake is pretty good, and the GameCube games are phenomenal
I’d recommend Banana Blitz HD and Banana Mania for you
Watched this to find the monkey ball game I played on xbox a whole bunch as a kid. Man deluxe served me well it would seem.
Super Monkey Ball was my childhood. I never thought you'd rank all of them. Thank you!
"If there is a hole, there is a goal "make sense 🗿🗿
I would say 3D is the worst Monkey Ball by a clear mile.
I’m surprised NB didn’t mention his experience with super monkey ball adventure in the frustration series
Banana Blitz is kind of a guilty pleasure of mine, though the HD version is far superior because of eliminating the motion issue.
Banana Blitz HD is pretty solid. Banana Mania is where it’s at but BB HD is worth it on a good sale
24:17 Pretty sure it is without loosing a life in this game not a continue. At least I know in order to unlock Beginner Extra and Advanced Extra it is without loosing a life. Which is so much worse!
Beginner and Advanced need to be cleared without losing a life, Expert, you can lose a few lives but you can’t use continues
Super Monkey Ball Jr allows you to move faster with the A button & slow down with the B button. Basically, it's the closest to a control stick for a hand held. It's actually how I won Expert 19. Holding down A while moving allows you to clear it. Kinda like how Super Mario 64 DS has a run button to emulate holding down a control stick in the original.
Nice.
I was hoping someone would reference Expert 19. I remember watching NB's old Top 10 covering that stage and I was only able to find a single video of someone clearing it.
Goes to show how unknown the A+B controls are in Jr.
@@maxdragonsoul5553 Wait- WHAT?! It's THAT unknown! I remember The Lonely Goomba mentioned them in his SMB Jr video.
Me and my sister loved these games, thanks for the nostalgic ride!
The new character is really cool!
I just wanna express my appreciation for you. I’ve been watching your content for over 10 years now and you’ve just been a face of my childhood all because of Monkey Ball. I just wanna say thank you for all the fun laughs and creative, ORIGINAL content (you see a did a throwback right there)
But I feel I can speak for everyone when I say you’re an incredible content creator and deserve the world. You’re a serious inspiration, especially for someone like me. I’ve had it rough due to my autism but once I learned you had it too, and you were making it through all these incredible accomplishments, I couldn’t help but feel inspired.
Thank you for everything 🖤
Now this is the business
Gotta love Monkey Ball!
I’ve been waiting for this thanks NB
I actually got into this franchise not to long ago, so this is a surprise😅
I feel like adventure has a lot of potential. If the game had been more linear and less confusing to get through it would’ve been more fun. I can actually see what they were going for with adventure and genuinely like the ideas on display, if only the execution was better it would’ve been a decent game.
The way you reviewed Super Monkey Ball Jr. wasn't very fair - you can also hold A to go faster and B to go slower to compensate for the D-pad...
Oh God .. 😒
Now this…This is the Video I have been waiting for❤
I have a lot of nostalgia for Touch and Roll.
I'm really glad that you're starting to bring back the ranking videos, recently. Off-topic, but can you make a ranking video about the Legend of Zelda games? I would love to see a video about it.
Unless you count the original marble madness and marble blast ultra on the Xbox 360 The only monkey ball game I've played is banana blitz the Wii version and once I played the arcade like 2 credits.
I feel like the most controls didn't work super well but I still liked them and I was thinking if you had some kind of mobile device like a 3DS or a cell phone and you use the motion controls there that would probably be better.
If there was a game that you could have most controls on but then also turn them off and it would keep track of how you beat the level then that'd be cool.
idea: complete every mario and luigi game in 10 days.
Whats up with sega making physics based platformers and not having the newer games have those original physics
There is a much easier way to unlock Master without using a continue in SMB1.
In the first expert level, don't do anything until the timer is at exactly 2 seconds. Roll forward until .16 seconds, then you hold down and left on the analog stick. (Pause buffering will help) When done correctly, you'll cut the tape at the goal and get a "time over" at the same time. You'll lose a life, but the level counter will go up by 1 every frame when both clear and time over conditions are triggered at the same time.
At respawn, it will still be the first level, but the game would think you are on the final level, which should read as "Floor 50". After that, you will have to clear all Expert Extra levels with 2 lives to get Master.
Hope this helps anyone who is struggling to unlock Master.
truly a (super) monke moment
I'm disappointed that you didn't mention the developer's custom bowling levels in Super Monkey Ball 2's Monkey Bowling 2's Special Mode. It was so cool to see unique levels for bowling as most bowling games don't even do that and it always seems like a missed opportunity. I guess the third training in Wii Sports Bowling is closest to this but still why aren't there more games that do that?
It is literally bowling with 10 pins each time (as standard) but instead of the single boring straight-line there are curves, inclines, etc. Not only did they have one set of 10 bowling stages, but they also had 3 variants of these (Level 1, Level 2, and Level 3).
Honestly a really good top tier underrated bowling experience if it wasn't for the controls being sub par.
I played them but didn't really feel like they were worth mentioning, it's at least refreshing compared to the same lane every time
@@NathanielBandy hey I am sorry for the overwhelming reply both in this vid and the reaction to TTYD there a username that using your PFP and try to set traps to every commenter for free prizes can you help please?
Super Monkey Ball Adventure looks so cool... its a shame that they ruined everything else about it... its the sonic 06 of monkey ball
And it was also released in 06.
@@NinjaMario02 LOL
I like the video but I do have one critic. The new PNG tuber feels a bit janky when it does pop up within the video. I feel like it could have been synced a little bit better when your talking.
It’s very possible that I’m just not use to it but I still wanted to point it out. It could be improved.
As an example, head to 0:30. Again, could be me but it felt like it could have been synced better
Yeah I agree, not all of them were synced perfectly. That program we use makes that hard to do, but I'll see what we can do to fix that in the future
@@NathanielBandy I would say you should rework the lip syncinc isn't horrible but it paced a bit weird if you ask me, just my main criticism
This is a pretty cool ranking! You should do Donkey Kong in the future!
I agree!
Can you do a Puyo Puyo one next?
@@chriszimmerman6906 Would be kinda cool.
@@jumentoqueanima I agree!
Great video mate 👍
I remember playing this at my local arcade and it was so goofy
SMB Adventure I wish they done more to fix what was wrong with story mode. Even I didn't know what to do to progress and never finished the game since then.
I love your ranking videos!
Yep they keep consistent quality for the most part
@@theenderkirby939Yeah. I mean, this channel as a whole didn't fall like some. It will probably be really good forever.
@@jumentoqueanima I am not betting on this it will stay forever like with everything but yeah compare to so many youtubers which turn for the worst and pretty quickly bandy really did kept the quality
@@jumentoqueanima don't listen to the bandy comment you got is fake
@@theenderkirby939 I know, hate this bots.
I noticed you changed your animation self. And it looks very good! I really like how much more animated it looks now compared to the old ones.
Yeah!
"is the only portable monkey ball game..."
*chokes in 3ds*
Oh sorry missunderstanding
The avatars look good Nate!
Edit: Anyone remember the Monkey Ball episode of the What makes Nathaniel rage?
I loved super monkey Ball 1 and 2 as a kid and I'm glad to see that they got good rankings, I look forward to playing future titles
18:06 this reminds me of the song that played when you get a power star in mario
Didn’t you wanted to stream the 50 Minigames in Super Monkey Ball Banana Blitz? Why not do it 6 years later
I’ve been watching monkey boss stuff from you, so this is amazing. Thank you give always been my favorite TH-camr for a reason.
17:07 if i remeber, you can launch the monkeys at the credit blocks
Nathaniel is striving for monke! 🍌
12:46 Is this how Squid game was created?
Monkey ball adventure is my favorite monkey ball game. It is really hard and can even be annoying but I think is has a lot of charm and at least has the best multiplayer out of any monkey ball game.
uh
I'm hoping that one day an unreleased version of Monkey Ball is discovered. If the Dreamcast hadn't failed I think it would have released on Dreamcast. The original Monkey Ball ran on the Naomi arcade hardware which is almost identical to the Dreamcast. It is sad that the Dreamcast failed :( It is one of the best consoles ever made.
That's a really interesting thought! Imagine Aiai's face on the VMU screen!
@@TELE.GRAM__NathanielBandy1 Beep boop
OG’S will remember the Frustration Series. Used to rage at this game😭😭
I love your Ranking Videos!!
These ranking videoa really let nathaniel MONKEY around with his opinions!
Also i gotta say....the new avatars look pretty clean!
I'd love to see Nathaniel Bandy dabble in more Monkey Ball content, especially more challenge videos as the series' structure lends to challenges.
With Banana Mania, the default controls are pretty bad, the only way I got it to feel good was changing the deadzone to square in steam settings
Then it felt perfect
I'll have to try changing the controls on Console.
Never tried that, but I put the game down because you literally could not do any precise movement at all. Trying to turn around in place forced you to move the the distance of like 5 Bananas to the side.
@@vgahayden weird. It felt pretty precise for me
My only gripe is 3D being over step and roll, other than that I agree
I've bought Banana Mania for the Switch this summer mainly because of you! I've only played for a dozen hours but I should really get back to it to complete the expert mode of SMB1 and to finish all the extra mode
You can play monkey jr on game cube with the expansion
You should try to 100% every Zelda game in one month
Well done! One game alone took weeks to be decided on. Recordings also weeks to complete. There was never a finished script and so changes were abundant. I agree with your selection!
OMG FINALLY A NEW SUPER MONKEY BALL VIDEO I LOVE YOU NATHANIEL
17:09-17:13 That's another thing, you may not be able to skip the credits in Touch & Roll (I just quit to the menu after hitting the goal in the last stage of each world) but there is a minigame in the T&R credits you just start it by tapping one of the monkeys on the touch screen or by flicking one of them upward. The minigame itself is alright, just flick the monkeys to the top and hit as many letters as possible. It also gets pretty hectic because you can use more than one monkey at a time and while they can fall you can flick them right back up when they get to the touch screen.
0:30 New Nathaniel bandy png
I really have a soft spot for the original Banana Blitz. Yes, the controls completely sucked, but I played this game so much as a kid that I mastered them. Also, the music is incredible! I think the worst game imo is Super Monkey Ball 3D. It’s so easy and boring! Also, the Party games in it completely suck as their watered down versions of Mario Kart and Smash Bros.
Still, I like this list. Super Monkey Ball 2 is one of my favorite video games of all time, even after 20+ years. It beats all the other Monkey Ball games by a mile imo.
Because of this video, I decided to get Banana Mania on my Xbox, and I’m really loving it! Even though I just started.
So thanks Nathaniel!!
The perfect ranking 🙏
I love the Monkey Ball games they were always fun and challenging. The music and characters are also wonderful. Cool video. ^_^
I enjoyed this video!
Hi Nathaniel Bandy I love this and I hope you have a good day and you are awesome
you forgot to mention one of the most important thing s about banana mania! The Removed Co-op from doing adventure mode. In The Old games my friends and i would play it to see who could Finnish the game first, or who can hit the short cuts, or even get to the extra levels. Quite a shame that was removed because we still boot up 1 and 2 to play to this day
bro nathaniel has been posting longer videos in shorter amounts of time, keep up the good work dude
monke + balls = happy
3:36 NB Table!
6 minutes and 44 comments and 141 likes??? Great job Nathan!
The problem with Banana Mania is once it was released Sega just abandoned the game.
They still haven’t fixed Monkey Target somehow, even years later. They just don’t care about this game.
I love all of your ranking videos. They're all so fun to watch. Thank you for giving us these great videos.
For the record, in Super Monkey Ball 1, the life system to access the extra stages is worse on the Beginner and Advanced stages. You have to complete those WITHOUT LOSING A LIFE to get their corresponding extra stages...
I love Super Monkey Ball 2.
This video is gonna make me go nuts. The balls he needed to make this video must be big and steel
This video is gonna make you go BANANAS
For me Banana Mania would be a 10/10 if the controls were better as you mentioned and if they had multiplayer for the challenge mode. It really sucks that they didn’t put multiplayer in as that was my friends and I go to mode to play on deluxe.
It was heartbreaking for me to see Banana Blitz at the bottom of this list given I have A LOT of nostalgia for the game given that I put a crazy amount of hours into the game when I got the Wii originally
fr tho it was underrated asf the hate was undeserved
