Super Monkey Ball 2
When game developer SEGA of Japan first unveiled its hit game Super Monkey Ball for Apple’s iPhone, gamers were delighted, anticipating the port of one of the most popular video games in recent history. However, much to the dismay of gamers worldwide, while the tilting mechanism built into iPhones functioned in favor of intriguing play, the game itself received poor reviews due to what many felt were poor controls. Now, SEGA plans to remedy this situation by introducing a sequel to its popular puzzle game. The decidedly cute graphics helped the game sell well across the gender lines, but the company hopes its future release will please the more hard core gaming audience.
By teaming up with developer Other Ocean, SEGA seeks to improve the controls in Super Monkey Ball 2 by focusing on what it learned from customer feedback it garnered after the initial title’s release. By taking a lesson from Nintendo’s Wii console, the gaming giant is employing massive development efforts to upgrade the precision of controls and make the game far more playable than their last go around. Gamers will be able to calibrate the controls to suit their own styles of movement, thereby increasing the effectiveness of the controls to suit the individual user.
