Default Re-discovering Super Monkey Ball

Last week a friend came over for diner. After that, I showed him my GC, let him play all the games for it. Surprisingly, I noticed he kinda liked Pikmin, he's not a hardcore gamer.

After that I put in the last game: Super Monkey Ball! Now THAT was a game he loved!
We did the beginner thingy and did some golf, then he went home.

I kept on playing SMB... what a great game. I always thought it was too hard for me (me and my bro got stuck in the... 7th level of EX), but finally I'm getting good at it!
I also like to find ways for completing levels in no-time. It's just great to fly through levels.

I haven't beat it yet, but that's because I didn't have enough time to do so. ...but 50 levels!!! :eek:

Lemme guess... you haven't played SMB2 yet?

But yeah, it is an amazing game considering it was a launch title. (and hey, it was out even before Gamecube was shipped )

Well, hitting 50 levels is easy, you just need unlimited continues. And then you got Expert Extra, and Master left.

And if you don't want to dent your pride, or feel dejected, just DON'T watch those videos of people completeing levels from both Super Monley Ball games...

Super Monkey Ball is very challengeing in Expert mode, most gamers I know would never take the time required to beat it. I beat expert mode, but those master levels are just too hard for me...

I beat the Master and the Master Extra's, but Master 3 and some of the Master Extra's are just too ****ing hard to try again. It seems like half of the Master Extra's are based on pure luck.

From SMB2 that is...
