Version 1.0 on cart. Revision 000. Patch currently available to version 1.0.4.

Completion Criteria: Completed the story mode 100% which includes beating all the levels included in the story mode, along with all the missions associated with every level. Additionally, Casual and Normal modes of the challenge mode were completed for both Super Monkey Ball 1 and 2. All bonus modes unlocked, which includes Reverse Mode, Dark Banana Mode, Golden Banana Mode, Original Stage Mode, and DX Mode. All these modes were completed, though some levels were skipped due to difficulty.

Party Games are also included on the cartridge. These include Monkey Race, Monkey Fight, Monkey Target, Monkey Billiards, Monkey Bowling, Monkey Golf, Monkey Boat, Monkey Shot, Monkey Dogfight, Monkey Soccer, Monkey Baseball and Monkey Tennis. These were tested to make sure they are on cart.

Played several hours of Monkey Golf, Monkey Fight, and Monkey Dogfight, and played the other modes, though to a lesser extent.

All characters were unlocked, and these characters include AiAi, MeeMee, Baby, GonGon, YanYan, Doctor, Jam, Jet, Sonic the Hedgehog, Miles “Tails” Prower, Kazuma Kiryu, and Beat. All other characters released for this game are not included on the cart, and are considered DLC.

Minor issues were found during this test. Framerates are consistent throughout, though there are a few moments where there would be a quick drop and the game would go back to normal.

There were four times where the game froze entirely while loading. These freezes were only resolved by restarting the game entirely.

Languages: Only English found. It is possible that languages are based on system settings.

Difficulty options: None

Accessibility options: Helper mode is offered. This allows the player to slow the game down, doubles the time limit, and puts markers down on the level to assist with direction. Also, the player can unlock Jump from the shop from 30,000 bananas, and this can be helpful for players.

No DRM found.
