The conversion from the GameCube originals are flawless, and although some may bemoan the lack of Live support, this shouldn't take anything away from this perfect console party piece.

This is the perfect Game for Super Monkey Ball fans, It has over twice the content while still having everything great from the past games.

Deluxe is not good as 2 but does very well at keeping the series fresh. The gameplay is what you expect and still has that charm. I definitely recommend this game.

Super Monkey Ball Deluxe is the best version of a great game, anyone wanting to play this game (but doesn't own a Gamecube) has no excuse anymore.
