Absolutely infuriating
User Rating: 3.7 | Super Monkey Ball: Banana Blitz WII
I played Super Monkey Ball Banana Blitz for about 45 minutes and I wanted to strangle somebody, I can only imagine how those who have played for longer feel. Basically its a bunch of half-finished mini game atrocities slapped together in what appears to be a matter of minutes, as they lack both substance and a controller scheme that's actually functional. I found myself taking 30 swings in the golf mini-game before the ball actually moved and when it did my very light swing produced a gargantuan approach shot that put me farther away from the green then when I started. I thought perhaps it was a fluke mini-game, but attempt after attempt revealed that a healthy majority were defective. To confirm it was not just my Wii-Mote malfunctioning I plugged in wii sports to find my controller was in tip top shape. I find SMB-BB a skid-mark on the reputation of the Nintendo Wii, and its high ratings on this very website force me to question Gamespot's judgement.
