Sega and developer Amusement Vision return with a spirited sequel in Super Monkey Ball 2. Think Marble Madness with the twist that you control the environment instead of the marble, tilting the levels to guide the monkey ball to the finish line. The follow-up adheres to the play style and mechanics of the original offering, but adds an overwhelming supply of new single-player levels, expands upon the sizeable multiplayer mini-games already featured with several fantastic entries, and updates the graphic look so that environments are flashier and more animated. As a single-player game SMB2 is more difficult and satisfyingly challenging, but its multiplayer mode makes it the perfect party game for all ages.
Problems
White Screen
The screen may becomes pure white immediately after a start.
Sound Bugs
Sounds do not play correctly with DSP-HLE. Enabling DSP-LLE will fix this problem.
Slowdown
On levels that either have excessive buttons (Switch Inferno) or have a lot of geometry (Randomizer), a noticeable drop in framerate occurs on mid-range and below computers.
Crash / Opcode Errors
Opcode errors or crashing may occur when using dual core mode, disable dual core to resolve.
Missing Shadows
Shadows will be missing when not using Fast Depth Calculation, enable it to show them.
Configuration
Only configuration options for the best compatibility where they deviate from defaults are listed.
