Banana Blitz controlled infinitely better than any of the Gamecube titles (single player) and as a result became extremely easy to many veterans to the series. If you found the analogue stick more accurate, you probably just didn't adjust to the tilt control, which was superior after being mastered.

Looking forward to the new game! Here's hoping Monkey Target is un-broken from SMB:BB and returns to SMB2 form.

@JKR Yeah, Banana Blitz can be a bit of a love it or hate it game, really. It could very well be more accurate than the Gamecube stick, but like you said it takes some mastering - a lot more mastering than the GC originals.

Although SMB2 was incredibly difficult to the point of frustration, so I'll give you that. :)

Indeed, here's hoping we get a proper Monkey Target! I did see a 'Monkey Fight' in the menus too (never got to see it though) so I think the staples are definitely making a comeback in some way.

I'm in.

And I have to disagree with JKR, the GameCube original was far easier to control than Blitz, especially for veterans. I've been looking out for a Naomi cabinet containing SMB for my first (in the past ten years, at least) arcade project. I think I'll end up getting one of these:



And find the kit, which is a (fairly steep IMO) $400 or so.
