Sega trademarks Super Monkey Ball: Ticket Blitz

If the announcement of Virtua Tennis 4 wasn’t enough to get your blood flowing, this may well be.  Segabits reports that Sega has trademarked the admittedly bizarre title “Super Monkey Ball Ticket Blitz”.  Ticket Blitz? Wha?

The guys over at Segabits speculate that this could be the 3DS game we’ve been hearing about but, I’m also kind of curious as to whether or not this is something geared towards the new HD motion technologies.  I hope I’m wrong.  GOD I hope I’m wrong.

What do you guys think?  I used to love the originality of Monkey Ball back in the Gamecube days, but the novel concept was milked to death in the following years.  I hope this Ticket Blitz thing means some clever new tweak on the tried and true gameplay of the series, so that I can once again scream in rage at my cute little onscreen monkey.  Damn those games were hard.

  1. As fun as the original games were I’ve found it hard to get excited for any new games in the franchise. I think Sega has pretty much found a way to put a game on every platform available.

  2. Yeah unless they do something really new with this, I’m not excited. Though a really good Monkey ball game on 3DS could be pretty sweet.

    I’ve just never been able to get past the implications of what kind of world in which the game takes place. Some sort of sick future-cockfighting with monkeys in giant plastic balls. It’s worse than Pokemon.

  3. Also we totally have a sexy underwear manga lady as out ad right now
