Myself, I would pick up the monkey ball pack, I have both Monkey Ball 1 & 2 as well as Sunshine, and I would have to say I enjoyed Monkey ball much more.   Plus it is multiplayer so you and your daughter can play at the same time.

definately the monkey ball pack.  Its much better for the family.  Monkey pool will be worth the purchase, so is monkey bowling.

ok, thanks guys. is it worth having both games tho? or are the the same game more or less?

maybe i can trade in super monkey ball 1 to a game place and get sunshine too.

The single player levels are more of the same (which isn't necessarily bad).  But there are different mini games in each one, making them both worth having.
Why must all things be so bright? Why can things not appear only in hues of brown! I am so serious about this! Dull colors are the future! The next generation! I will never accept a world with such bright colors! It is far too childish! I will rage against your cheery palette with my last breath!

Sounds like a winner to me.Since,I've been seeking 1player games anyhow.RE-4 it is!!I'am going to buy it Monday morning.Thanks

Alright dudes I need your help.

Mario Power Tennis OR
Donkey Kong: Jungle Beat OR
Resident Evil 4

Which should I get? I'm a HUGE fan of Mario Tennis 64, it's one of my favourite games ever, but what i've seen of the GCN one hasn't really excited me, it looks too.. arcadey (can't think of a better word), too much crap happening and not enough tennis. Am I wrong here? I dunno, help. I already have bongos from Donkey Konga, which I play all the time to let some steam off on those sturdy bongos, and a second bongo game would be really good plus I really like what I see of Jungle Beat, it looks damn fun. On the third mutated hand there's Resident Evil 4, which everyone's claiming is the best game ever, and i'm not going to disagree with that it looks damn awesome, and I love Resident Evil... but... Jungle Beat and Mario Power Tennis are also awesome looking.

plz help me kthx

Mario Power Tennis feels like the 64 version with changed mechanics. At first, much of the strategy comes down to teasing out your opponents special moves and using your own. I like it, but to me it's still just a sports game. If it's true about Jungle Beat being discontinued here, maybe you should go for that? I mean, you'll still be able to find Power Tennis and RE4 in a few months.

I'm in a similar predicament; split between Four Swords, Sands of Time, and Jungle Beat. (I'm going to wait for RE4 to go player's choice then pick it up cheap.) Four Swords interests me because its Zelda and Bloodworth compared the single player to ALttP. Sands of Time sounds good because it was praised so much... though I didn't like Beyond Good and Evil which also got good reviews and has vaguely similar gameplay (and was made by the same studio?). It's also cheap. I already have a pair of bongos, and as a concept Jungle Beat sounds awesome to me. All of these games could become hard to find in a month or two, so in buying one I risk losing the ability to buy the others.

plz help me too kthx

MARIO TENNIS IS NOT JUST A SPORTS GAME!  IT IS BEST SPORTS GAME EVER! >=O

Ok, now that I got over that, I say you pit them against each other for a ROCK PAPER SCISSORS battle!  (Can't help you anymore than that)  

Oh, and Caillan, get FSA!

A ROCK PAPER SCISSORS battle you say?

Good point about Jungle Beat being discontinued, I forgot about that for a second... I think i've decided on Jungle Beat... and i'll find the others cheap somewhere some time hopefully. Actually, I might not be able to find Mario Power Tennis later on.. that seems pretty rare already.. damn it.

I think both of you should go for Jungle Beat.  The game is stupendously fun, and if it's really discontinued down there you should grab it quick.  Even if Mario Power Tennis is rare, it's also older so you'll be able to find it cheaper on ebay or whatever.

WTF?<------------which stands for"Why Turtles Fart" FYI<--------------------Forgets Your Idea

RE4 is the best game I've played in a really long time. I haven't had this much fun since I was playing the WW. So if you're thinking about it. Buy it. Buy it now. Buy two just in case you sit on one and break it with your big fat butt.

So, um, similar question: Resident Evil 4 or Timesplitters 3? If it helps, I finished Doom 3 but got annoyed by HL2.

As a single-player investment, I'd go with RE4.  Quite a lot happens on a minute-to-minute basis, mainly because there's little to no emphasis on inter-room exploration (what you would get from Zelda, Metroid, and the first RE).  That said, it has a healthy variety of events and action scenarios.  TS3 appears to have the standard "brief" FPS singles campaign (with adjustable difficulty), while the rest of its value is dependent on multiplayer.

Well, right now, it isn't confirmed to be on the Gamecube. In fact, at this stage, it is probably going to be on the Revolution - the next Nintendo console would make a good home for Mario 128. And Sunshine wasn't a bad game..it was just a bit unorthodox. I really did like it actually.

Ice - I think you got fooled a third time.  Cloudstrife111 is a dummy account made by one of the mods.  (I'm not sure which one.)  Don't take anything he says seriously.

Damn, and I thought it was bad when I believed my friend when he said that the word "gullible" was not in the dictionary. lol
