(Super) Monkey Ball

Same thing as before, except on Advanced mode.

[@Boinkity1]

The Gamecube version definitely looks like the superior one.

[@Golbez1991]

Very cool video. Glad to see the arcade version. I'm glad that they replaced the robotic monotone voice with Patrick Harlan as the announcer for the console version.

[@Gestersmek]

Golbez1991 I didn't expect this to be the place I found out the announcer's name.

[@Anko3342]

*When Super Monkey Ball 1 on the gamecube got released* Is this the Robotic Voice? Announcer: No, this is Patrick.

[@AtomicBoo]

Golbez1991 its not patrick harlan

[@MadamDaniRhodes]

The announcer is Brian matt

[@josephbailey5824]

I love the brief timeline of the announcer voice consensus

[@ShaferProductions]

Thanks for the correction

The extra stages music in the arcade version sounds way cooler than the GameCube one

[@MrCat-se7ws]

Nah arcade sounds like fuckin mario kart not monkey ball

[@YayArchaea]

darn those visible floors you can fall through.

[@tommys5484]

[@andrebrooks4891]

The jungle music is what you hear when you wake up in the morning

[@CrisGarcia6]

I like the vocoded announcer. It sounds really cool

[@PieCreeper12]

The worlds in the arcade version look so cool.

[@RyneMcKinney]

Albeit unfitting

[@endcitypenguin3610]

Finnaly a meemee gameplay

[@edwardandbrookenav7275]

My favorite is Mimi 🙏

[@jeanneymar3744]

Souvenir souvenir sur Dreamcast , un garage chez un pote ,la jeunesse , la fume , les potes , la Dreamcast 😂. Les journées et soirées tout les jours jusqu'à 4 h du mat 😊 #2000/2008 .

[@argonaut640]

Good thing they fixed the "no miss" thing in SMB2.

[@DylanSyddall]

Austin Argo no miss thing?

[@argonaut640]

What I mean is, in order to get to the extra stages, you have to beat every level without using a continue or, I guess in this case, getting there without getting a "miss". However, it appears that the translators did not entirely know that, so they accidentally said that you got to go to the Extra stages by "not missing anything". I can guess that this caused confusion due to both the vague naming (not missing any of the bananas?) and the fact that it did not feature the actual means of getting to the Extra Stages (Beating the entire difficulty level without using a continue. This may have been long, but I hope this answers your question.

[@DylanSyddall]

Yes it does and thanks

[@DefectiveBubblebuddy]

To tell you to truth, I kinda liked the robotic voice. It made Monkey Ball more interesting. I wish they kept the robotic voice instead of getting someone else to be the announcer. Catch my drift?

[@KesterStudios]

not really

[@JRS423]

nope.avi

[@molo-molo5103]

Weedy... Goo... gol...

[@qaisqashqary7862]

that wooho filled me with nostalgia

[@NiGHTSaturn]

The fact that Monkey Ball is on NAOMI still gives me an almost impossible hope to be able to play a version on Dreamcast. The GC version is so great though.

[@MTGAStudiosWasThere]

17:11: Whoops!

[@scribblenaut19]

I played the arcade version but the game had pretty crappy controls.

[@SonicAndTailsHD]

+SuperVideoMaster -BANANA STICK-

[@MetProduct-td4rz]

Try the GameCube version

[@zedoctor_]

Met Product33061 The GameCube version had good controls, wdym

[@supersmashmaster43]

Ethan GD pretty sure he’s telling him try the gamecube version for good controls

[@BenoitAdam2]

But arcade has a BANANA CONTROLLER YOU CAN'T BEAT THAT GAMECUBE !!!!

[@chiara9721]

I don’t like the textures on the arcade version...or should I say, lack thereof. Arcade version feels really unfinished to me.

[@BossBasher]

Don't forget this is essentially a dreamcast game, if they're using the Sega Naomi

[@mimitchibubble131]

The end is very very glitchy ! 😂😂😂

[@mimitchibubble131]

Ok… 3 years later, i now remember why i said that ! 😅😂

[@SoLinkSmash]

Thanks again!

[@MetProduct-td4rz]

Same floors as the arcade but themes change

[@M1YAK2]

Hahaha! Glitched through the floor! That was all the glitch gremlin's doing. The Glitch gremlin strikes again!

[@jakab-zalanffyeszter7254]

the super mokey ball EX you time 80.00

[@Fat4all]

Great stuff!

[@MeeMeeCandy777]

I liked the music on World 3 (Ocean) on the arcade version. Plus, MeeMee sounds differently in the arcade version, even when she falls off the stage. 😊😄

[@argonaut640]

+Michelle Carson I believe that is because the voices were pitched down for the Gamecube release.

[@CaptMono]

Actually, they seemed to *pitch up* the voices in arcade.

[@megablueman]

@@CaptMono No, the arcade was first

[@missywiley3140]

How come GonGon makes an appearance in the GameCube version, but not the Arcade version?

[@9SuperMonkeyBall0]

yes, they chosen to not put GonGon in the arcade version, I'm surprised Baby even made a playable appearance in this version of monkey ball. When I first learn that Super Monkey Ball was at one point a live arcade game in arcades I only expected the 2 main character (AiAi & MeeMee) to be in it.

[@robonaught]

Cuz the Arcade version came first and GonGon wasn't invented until the Gamecube version

[@seandylanhernandez1982]

level 2 pinball

[@Golbez1991]

I'm not catching your drift. Unless you're telling me you are the robotic voice.

[@blueblur8420]

Silly question, but the party and mini-games are not in the Arcade version... Or are they?

[@robonaught]

No party and mini games were never in the original arcade version.

[@CrisGarcia6]

For the expert, to go to extra levels, you must go without a continue and for beginner and advanced, you cannot get a fallout correct?

[@AnthonyMtheGamerArtist]

You can't use up one continue. Fall Outs only take away one life. Using up all your lives gives you the chance to use a continue or Game Over.

[@JoSephGD]

That’s how you get to the extra levels in SMB1

[@__-_.]

Am I the only one that thinks the arcade version is super creepy? It reminds me of the Super Mario Sunshine test rooms.

[@leorodgz2050]

The fucking timer sound Is killing me softly Theres a way to shut It in game?
