Honestly never paid any attention to this series, but it looks like I’m missing out on a lot of fun

[@Nauriek]

Played it on the DS. It was quite a bit of fun, although it also got quite frustrating at times. The minigames were surprisingly fun, too. I didn't like the ultra-precise stages that you need to carefully crawl over (unless i found a way to cheese them, that was always fun), but the most enjoyment by far is from going completely bonkers bananas on the velocity and exploit the game's physics by wildly racing across the levels at maximum velocity.

[@stanzacosmi]

Thats exactly how the game was meant to be played. Monkey Ball was originally an Arcade game, so it was all about retrying to do better, trying new things, trying to beat your times, etc.

[@blinxman4956]

This must be very challenging to try not to get all the bananas. I'm glad Super Monkey Ball is making a comeback!

[@fangier0]

Not getting all bananas is so easy, but getting no bananas... So hard

[@inksans5589]

yep im doing the challenge but i can use helper mode 7-1 is way worse now

Very easy to get no bananas just be sonic

[@gunchapred8933]

Here’s an interesting idea I had for a challenge run. Can you beat (any Mario game) by defeating every enemy. The rules are simple. Whenever you hop into a level, not one single member of Bowser’s army must survive! You gotta go out of your way to kill them all! The only exceptions being endlessly respawning enemies and unkillable enemies.

[@miserablepileofsecrets]

You must be *herm herm* bananas after completing this game not touching a banana. I'll see myself outta here 🖐

[@wbe1549]

Monkey ball was so fun as a kid and I love seeing it again :)

[@darthvader473]

Aw man, I thought it was a new How Will Nathaniel Rage video. But these videos are still incredible nonetheless.

[@desh206]

Oh god i remember How will nathaniel rage

[@bonegamerthecyndaquill7181]

This reminds me of the time I tried doing a Bananaless Story Mode playthrough on the original GameCube version of SMB2. This means i was on a version where jumping was not a thing yet. It's surprising how far I got with no bananas, the stage that ended my run was Sieve.

[@saarelaian1]

You made stamina master harder than you needed, you coulda used the jump exploit from the starter platform and then the slow mo to get extra distance for the goal

[@apollomii]

I've never played Super Monkey Ball but it sure looks like fun

[@Jackmoo101]

Dude you could’ve stayed as sonic for an easy win-

[@mariomaster101official]

Nice, I love challenge videos

[@Nobddy]

“… yet again Banana Mania adds an excessive amount of bananas to every stage for some reason.” The game is called Banana Mania

[@vegetarblessb]

At first the addition of jumping felt like cheating, but then it opens up so many awesome strategies, some of which are still really hard, just in a new fun way. It's pretty cool

[@tuvyamaeir4684]

Watching this while not playing it myself is starting to get me incredibly dizzy. I gotta bail but mad props to the challenge.

It would appear Nathaniel Bandy is turning into NicoBBQ.

[@blackopskoopa6404]

No coins, I know what you mean

[@FastFoodVicar]

Banana Mania is actually such a great game. The option to use/not use jump is great. Turning feels abit odd and some collision isnt the same but honestly thats about all I can critique it for. Oh and wishing there was a deluxe challenge run instead of deluxe levels being seperate

[@cyberknightgaming2094]

How to beat all stages easily: switch to a character which collectible isn’t a banana. Like sonic

[@marioninatendo4905]

Great pun whether intended or not: bananas bunched together.

[@planetnydro]

So many of these levels are CLEARLY not designed with jumping in mind

[@citriosis]

The game called "Banana Mania" adds an excessive amount of bananas? 😅 Jokes aside, good stuff lol.

[@carterferris07]

There is a tiny bit of information that wasn’t pointed out when talking about going straight using a keyboard. On all the versions of the game, when going straight, your character will veer either to the left or right. It’s quite annoying. However, only on PC, when you use a controller, there is a setting you can change called your deadzone shape. If you change that to square, you should be able to hold up and go straight. There is a video by Helix13_ that shows you how to do it.

[@EvilRiceGuy]

Props to bandy going through this much

[@MamutaPWIP]

The reason they added Bananas everywhere is because it’s BANANA Mania. THINK, BANDY! THINK!!!
