I borrowed Super Monkey Ball off a friend yesterday.
I played it for about half an hour.
It tried to auto-save but it said "The file on your memory card has been damaged"
I nearly killed myself, EVERYTHING on my memory card was gone.
Zelda, Metroid Prime, 80% complete Timesplitters 2, Soul Calibur 2 (I was passed platinum edgemaster) and a very nearly completed Super Smash Bros Melee.

Has this happened to any of you?

Monkey ball is genius.

People who dont like it are probably just crap at it.

Bah. I know it deserves recognition as a class game but it just couldn't keep my attention. As I say, I'm sure the second (or possibly third) will suit my tastes better.

I'll probably grab it once it goes down in price.

I'm shocked at this Monkey Ball flavoured bashing.

It rules.

and you know it.

Thought the first had some nice ideas, and the mini-games were good, but I just didn't think it was worth it. I've heard that the second is, in general, a bigger and better version so I may consider it in the future.

Super Monkey Ball is fantastic.

As innovative as innovation gets.

I agree, it is pretty crap. And I'm not just saying that cuz it wiped my memory card!
I was using the joytech card I got free with my cube from SR.
But it has lasted nearly 18 months without screwing up.
I think I'll get an official card before christmas.

You monsters! You maniacs! You destroyed it all!
DAMN YOU! DAMN YOU ALL TO HELL!!!

Oh. I though thus was a thread about Planet of the Apes.

May I also make it clear that I hate Super Monkey Ball. If any readers like it that is absolutely fine but I reserve my hatred for it. Maybe its because I have the patience of a 3 year old. In fact I AM a 3 year old.

Well...slight exaggeration but you get my point.
Xerxes+Super Monkey Ball= death and destruction.

Nah, he wouldn't be bothered with such trivial matters. David Gosen maybe, but not Shigsy.

He said it once when Zelda was launched because he was genuinely concerned that people would lose their game saves.

Happened to me with a 4gamers card, a few times actually, until I pulled my thumb out and bought an official 251.
