The Super Monkey Ball franchise naturally yields many questions. For instance: why are these monkeys locked in see-through balls? Why do they roll around at hundreds of miles per hour? Why do they live in hellscapes made up of floating physics-based obstacle courses? And perhaps most importantly, why would SEGA decide to remaster Banana Blitz, one of the series’ less popular entries, instead of the much more beloved titles on GameCube? Yet SEGA has indeed brought Banana Blitz back onto modern platforms with this new HD re-release after its first appearance more than a decade ago on the Wii. So now that everyone’s favorite primate-rolling franchise has finally debuted on current-gen hardware, the most pertinent question remains to be answered: does this new edition address the issues that plagued Banana Blitz’ first release, or does it merely monkey around?

This week’s issue of Famitsu has an announcement for a new game from Good-Feel: Monkey Barrels, a top-down action shooting game for Nintendo Switch. You move your character with the left stick while aiming with the right stick. There will also be online multiplayer for up to six players.

This will be the first game that Good-Feel have published themselves. They’ve previously done a lot of contract work for Nintendo – their most famous games are Kirby’s Epic Yarn, Yoshi’s Woolly World and Yoshi’s Crafted World. The game will be released next week, on November 7. So far, it’s only been confirmed for a Japanese release.
