Does anybody know?

I`ve just tried the original and its fantastic. read a review of SMB2 and it sounds even better. But no-one knows when its due out. All I can get from websites is that its out before Christmas, and Game just have it as To Be Confirmed.

Someone help me!

Never seen a release date for it as yet, but as you say sometime before xmas.

I have the US import one and it is superb.... genius level design and superb mini games

I raised the same question a little while ago and couldn`t discover the answer - I even mailed sega who simply told me that no UK release had been set and from looking around the web dates range from before xmas to easter 2003!!!

With such a dillemma, I couldn`t wait and I`m pleased I didn`t!! Monkey Ball is pure genius. Althought the single player levels are a little un-rewarding the mini-games are superb especially Monkey Target. I did hear that they`ve messed a little with this part of the game in Monkey Ball 2 and its maybe not as good?

My advice would be don`t delay - go out and buy it today. Your friends won`t be able to thank you enough!

Monkey Target 2 is much better, well i would say that i can actually beat my Girlfriend at it :-) The main difference is that you collect the Brake, Magnet, whilst in flight, you can multiply your score by collecting stars that are dotted about, plus you can play 2 players at the same time, (lots of knocking each other off) as ive said before Monkey Tennis = Virtual Tennis but with monkeys....

Good to hear that its better - I was only speaking from what I`d read in reviews of SMB2.

I don`t want to start a sexism war here but I want to add that this is definitely a game for non-gamers - my girlfriend has become (almost) as addicted as I have to Monkey Target. I also heard that this may be coming to the PS2 soon.

Anyone want to reveal their highest Monkey Target score for SMB1?

Moncs / Buzzlightyear

You say you`ve played/got SMB2 imported. I assume that you both have US/Jap machines. I know that UK machines can`t play imports yet (i need freeloader for that I believe), but where do you usually buy the import games from?
