Super Monkey Ball 1 and 2 are awesome entertainment. Adequate graphics (some of the stage backgrounds are rather pretty, actually), great music, challenging and inventive levels, and (most importantly) super smooth gameplay. Definitely pick them up if you see them around anywhere, especially since they should be pretty cheap.

I'm wary of how Banana Blitz will turn out, since the most important part of the games are the controls, and bad things happen when they're not perfect; cf. Super Monkey Ball Deluxe for the Xbox. If the controls are handled well, the game could be a natural fit for the Wii, although it might get tiring after a while trying to balance the remote perfectly. Then again, it could also turn out be a disgusting, unresponsive mess.

I'm hopin' for the possibility of being able to control the game with the nunchucku too.

How ya doing, buddy?
