At first, this seemed like a match made in heaven. Utilizing the precise and physics-based controls of the Super Monkey Ball games, and mixing that with the new motion controls of the Wii console, this could have been a fantastic combination. Unfortunately, this game's controls were imprecise and clunky, while the levels around it were braindead easy and unmemorable. It's as if the developers knew that the gameplay wasn't going to be as good with only motion controls, and instead of figuring out that problem, they made each stage so open and easy it wouldn't matter how poorly it controlled. On the positive end, the minigames were pretty fun, though most of them you could find better iterations of in other games on the Wii, like Wii Sports. Thankfully, there is a remake that seems to rectify some of these, so I would recommend playing that over this version of the game.
