    I bought this game last night and I just wanted to let you all know that it's fan-tastic! It's just like the GC version and the controls are actually quite good. Now I need to convince my stupid friends to buy a copy of this game so that we could have some multiplayer fun...

    And you can save in between levels in the GBA version, which is quite a relief.

    Well, it is pretty much it's own game. I wouldn't just say different version in such a minor way as to say it's nothing more than a point. I'm sure that the switch of perspective required whole new levels througout with that in mind. I'm sure hte gameplay is the same (in that it's not, sheesh the analog sensitivity was the most important part :D), but I'm also sure it's it's own game.

    Actually it's pretty much a straight port of the Gamecube game, just with less polygons and worse textures. Seriously.

    So it's not 2D after all? It's all 3D, done Super FX style with a sprite representing the monkey? Wow, imagine the trouble controlling that monkey, unless you are using buttons to control speed.

    Yeah the levels (or platforms) are fully 3-D. But the controls work quite well, actually. If you hold onto B your character will move more slowly to allow more precision, and if you hold A he'll go faster. Let all of the buttons go and it's normal. It's surprisingly effective.
