A few bits on the unused sounds: 4:20 5:04 The alternate takes for "Goal!", "Go!", and "Fallout" were used in Super Monkey Ball Adventure. 4:30 Extra wasn't added as a selectable difficulty in 2, much less any of the other games. 4:45 "Select Stage" is used in 2's practice mode stage select. 4:57 SND_SEB_YUKA_SPECM_3_2 is used in 2 when attempting to select options that aren't available. 5:02 SND_SED_NAR_RST5 is the sound of the 1UP from the arcade version.

Thanks to you, Lost Bits are no longer a mystery. But you know what is a mystery? *WHY THEY MADE A SUPER MONKEY BALL GAME ON THE N-GAGE*

[@Mr_Wahee]

Or the Gameboy Advance

[@polygonplus9999]

Casper van Doorn Well, the GBA one was doomed to happen since the consoles were both made by Nintendo, but why the N-Gage? It was just, well, bad. I mean, along with the Game.com, R-Zone, and Gizmondo, it was one of the consoles that was just bad from the start.

[@averagebritishguy7082]

Because tons of other major game releases got N Gage ports as well. Bomberman, Call of Duty, Civilization, Crash Nitro Kart, FIFA Football 2004 and 2005, Puyo Pop, Rayman 3, Red Faction, Sega Rally Championship, The Sims Bustin' Out, Snake, Sonic Advance, Spider-Man 2, Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2004, various Tom Clancy games, Tomb Raider, Tony Hawk's Pro Skater, and Virtua Tennis all got N Gage ports. Alongside that, there were cancelled ports of DRIV3R, Habbo Islands, Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2005, The Urbz: Sims in the City, and Virtua Cop as well.

[@g1ng3rsn4ps]

@@keegansakura1307 It's well-designed objectively, even if it's not your cup of tea. And really it's a puzzle game, just movement based (much like those handheld marble-maze games) just with an added time element to add stakes/an additional lose-state and easier ability to challenge yourself. It's not really a racing game at all tbh.

I can't believe someone thought it would be a good idea to not remaster the original 2 and instead remaster the game no one liked. now i'm no expert, but i'm pretty sure that's NOT how you revive a franchise.

[@TetraBitGaming]

I think it's because Banana Blitz sold the most :/

[@dandrawsit4915]

I think it's better than having no Monkey Ball at all, it's actually amazing that SEGA is even considering doing this as they usually just make a new IP then forget about it like it never existed, at least this time around it's not held down because of the forced motion controls

[@FairPlay137]

Regarding the DIP SWITCH mode in the debug menu... That's likely a carryover from the arcade version. In arcade games, DIP switches are used to alter certain game settings (if they aren't adjustable thru the service menu, that is). You may be familiar with these if you messed around in MAME at all.

[@choppern3crozma673]

5:25 in the final game, master mode has (I think) only 10 stages instead of the 100 seen in this model.

[@grn1]

DIP switch refers to the dual in-line package switch found in the original arcade hardware. These were/are physical switches that change various values or settings in a game. Many older games had a switch for the number of starting lives or the score to earn a 1-up allowing for a small amount of customization. Other options were generally used for debugging purposes especially on older hardware that used non-erasable or write once Programmable Read Only Memory (PROM). I presume most newer cabinets have some sort of electronic erasable Programmable Read Only Memory (eePROM) to allow for easier switching between software/update-ability/easier repair though I could be wrong as eePROM also makes it easier to ROM dump (which can be used for both legitimate and illegitimate purposes).

Dip (Dual inline Packet) switches in hardware are switches intended to change a machine behavior at the bios level. I imagine they are called Dips here as these settings were physical Dips on the arcade machine (as the game itself would have been in a bios)

It's more so like a skill based challenge puzzle game? There is a Mario Kart style racing multiplayer game though

[@shingosawatarihgx8345]

in a lot of the later levels, it pretty much becomes a puzzle platformer where you can't jump. looking back, I'm not sure how I was able to play these games as a kid, they are difficult!

[@highgradedro]

Basically, the game has alot of levels. Your trapped in a ball and you have to roll around the level to get to the goal You can't jump, so is technically a puzzle game There's other characters to unlock And there's minigames _ _ _ _ _ _ Thats all I know about the game.

[@ariscop]

dip switches (usually pronounced dip, even though its an anagram) were often used in arcade machines for settings, like price, difficulty, bonus settings, cabinet layout in multi-cabinet games, etc. At some point eeproms became cheap and reliable enough, and rom space large enough, that software dip switch menus could be used instead, still called dip switches since that's what arcade operators would know a machines settings as

[@whatsrandom6487]

I think the faceless monkey head distortion you saw was probably a slowed down version of the effect used in the desert level to make it look boiling or something

[@FengTheSlayer]

What a great way to make a video like this since Banana blitz is getting a remaster

[@ShadowEO]

Considering it's a port of an arcade title, I'd assume the dip switch menu is a software implementation of various hardware dip switches used for debugging or otherwise on the original arcade game. Rather than scrap it or rewrite it, they probably just moved the configuration point off the switches themselves and into a menu that symbolizes them.
