JoeyApr 28, 2006You want to hate it. You want to put it down and give up as it's pretty hard and frustrating. But you cant! SERIOUSLY addictive but not in a bad way. You've got to be pretty patient with the main game but the party games aren't so hard. Though the game is kind of difficult it's still a decent game.

Getting monkey into position, and camera into position behind him, in time to make your desperate dash for a whirling mechanism has everything to do with the old-school frustrations of instant-death gaming and nothing to do with the effortless application of skill that the first game delivered so appealingly. [Feb 2006, p.91]

But what you really get is an all-encompassing Monkey Ball experience that rivals what is offered on consoles. Though a few modes are missing, a few more have been added to supplement them. [JPN Import]

Nintendo PowerRather than shoehorn the current Monkey Ball experience onto the DS, it would have been nice if the developers had tried to reinvent it in a way that truly took advantage of the handheld's capabilities. [Mar 2006, p.88]
