Sega of America is known for coming up with some crazy ideas to promote new games. When Team Sonic Racing came out, it published a real-life racing video set in a supermarket. Now, to build hype for Super Monkey Ball: Banana Blitz HD, it's uploaded a "Monkeymentary", which is an amusing monkey-themed take on a documentary.
The monkeys are back, and they're ready for their roles! Take a look behind the scenes at an artistic interpretation of the creation of Super Monkey Ball: Banana Blitz HD in our Monkey Ball Films - Original Documentary-style 'Monkeymentary'.
Super Monkey Ball: Banana Blitz HD rolls onto the Nintendo Switch on 29th October. It features updated graphics, optimised control schemes, brand new mini-games, and online leaderboards.

I'll be honest, this is way more effort than I ever could've expected for advertising the port/remake of the Wii Super Monkey Ball.
Fine, I'll buy 2.
Was expecting the worst, but it was actually pretty good. Doesn’t push me into buying the game though
This trailer convinced me to buy it. Not joking. It was hilarious and by the end I was like “...... Alright I’ll just get it 😂😂”
Curse you, effective marketing!
Banana Blitz is and amazing game which still plays perfectly on Wii. This remake is not really necessary but I can't see myself not buying it. I'll always support this series.
I've loved this series on everything I can get it on. it is a 'sleeper' fun party-style game.
Reminds me of "The Bad Touch" music video! ahahaha
EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEeeeeeeeeeeeeeee…………...……
It's so, so beautiful
Yes, this is the level of lunatic genius I expect with my Super Monkey Ball. It shall be mine.
Anyone who has never played the games before, don't sleep on this. It's one of the greatest franchises ever.
It's a shame they didn't save all this publicity this for the good entries in the series... then again, I've always said it's the more inferior games in a group that deserve a remake/reboot.
I'm sold! :] That's certainly an interesting SPIN when it comes to super monkey ball advertising!
I need an Aiai t-shirt!
lol I quite enjoyed the video!
@RickD What I'm saying is Banana Blitz is not the most popular game in the series and part of its charm was playing it with the Wii Remote. I'm sure a remake/remaster of SMB or SMB2 would do a lot better. Banana Blitz happens to be my favorite so I'm not complaining.
@RickD Also people like me, I never had a wii and never played this particular SMB game before.
I don't mind re-releases in console gaming market tbh, people can still play the old ones, but re-releases means there's still new copies available to buy.. Much better then having to hunt down old 2nd hand games.
@Kevember Yeah a release of Deluxe on switch would be perfect
Or even a remake, since Sega has given THOTD and panzer dragoon remakes.
The "Ten minutes of oxygen" had me sold.
@kkslider5552000 They made E for everyone sound like fun
That commerical was actually pretty awesome. I was definitely amused.
Can we talk about how AWESOME the new logo is?
This has seriously got to be one of the best commercials ever! Hats off to all involved! 😂🎉
Lol: Aiai played by Negan.
