Super Monkey Ball 2 is a platform and arcade game developed by Amusement Vision, released in 2002 for the Nintendo GameCube. The core gameplay involves tilting stages to roll a monkey encased in a transparent ball through maze-like courses toward a goal. Three single-player modes structure the experience: Story Mode offers unlimited attempts per stage and presents levels in sets of ten separated by cutscenes; Challenge Mode imposes a finite number of lives and strict time limits across increasingly difficult stages; and Practice Mode allows replay of any previously completed level. Alongside the main game, Super Monkey Ball 2 includes twelve party games — among them Monkey Race, Monkey Bowling, Monkey Golf, Monkey Soccer, Monkey Baseball, and Monkey Tennis — each supporting one to four players, making multiplayer a substantial component of the overall package.
The story shows the Super Monkey Ball team and all the Jungle Island inhabitants happily enjoying their day, when suddenly, Dr. Bad-Boon's airship flies over the land and vacuums up all of the bananas. AiAi demands he give back all the bananas, but he will only do so if MeeMee marries him. MeeMee refuses, so Bad-Boon flies off, and the Super Monkey Ball team jumps into action. Dr. Bad-Boon's first nefarious scheme is to blow up Jungle Island by making a volcano explode with a time bomb. He leaves it floating inside of it, and the team finds it. GonGon says he will destroy the bomb, despite MeeMee's pleas against it. He punches it out of the volcano, and it lands all the way in Bad-Boon's airship. It sinks into the sea, which drive Bad-Boon to swim away with the team chasing after him.
