Meet the new Monkeys in Super Monkey Ball: Banana Blitz

Super Monkey Ball: Banana Blitz for the Wii introduces more than a new control scheme (you can jump now!) and more mini games there are new monkeys.

Doctor is a mysterious old monkey that drifted down to Monkey Island from an unknown origin.  He suffers from amnesia and doesn’t even remember his own name. However, he is a well-liked, smart inventor, and everyone in town knows him as Doctor.

Doctor has the highest acceleration out of the whole gang, but it’s probably aided by some sort of contraption he invented. Being a bit on the old side his jumping skills aren’t what they used to be as well, but he is still a good monkey to play with.

YanYan is a young girl that recently moved close to AiAi’s neighborhood. She is a fearless girl, a master of the mightiest Monkey martial art of pugilism, Hachi-en-Ken (八猿拳). She has a crush on AiAi and gets very shy around him.

YanYan is the highest jumper of the entire group. Her vivacious energy allows her to reach heights that are unusual for her size. If you like to jump, YanYan is the monkey to choose.
