SEGA talks Super Monkey Ball series sales and more

Although some fans may have been concerned about sales of Super Monkey Ball, especially data that followed the release of Banana Rumble, SEGA says that the series is doing perfectly fine.
In its first week, Super Monkey Ball: Banana Rumble sold just 1,500 copies. That quickly prompted some concern. However, producer Nobuhiro Suzuki recently spoke about the franchise’s sales in a Famitsu interview and pointed to North American players as the current focus of the series and that’s where the IP has done well.

[Review] Super Monkey Ball: Banana Rumble
Posted on 5 months ago by Nicholas Serpa in Reviews, Switch | 0 comments
System: Switch
Release date: June 25, 2024
Developer: Ryu Ga Gotoku Studios
Publisher: SEGA
Considering it’s been twelve years since the last original Super Monkey Ball game released, I half-expected that Super Monkey Ball: Banana Rumble might try and and take some big risks, maybe try and swing for the fences with some crazy new single-player modes or some sort of other significant mechanical shakeup. Instead of reinventing the wheel – or indeed, the ball – Super Monkey Ball: Banana Rumble is more focused on just being a really well-crafted Super Monkey Ball game, one that seems to understand the importance of executing its few core gameplay modes as tightly as possible while cutting out most of the extraneous distractions from other games in the series. With a robust and challenging single-player Adventure Mode, a smattering of simple yet well-designed Battle Mode activities, and robust multiplayer support across the whole package, Banana Rumble is exactly what I had hoped it would be: an a-peel-ing blast from start to finish.
