I've ordered the PS2 version from eBay. = D Super Monkey Ball Deluxe! I can play that in emulator to spam save states so I won't have to replay the first 2/3rds of a stage all the time like in 4-9, for instance. ^ _^ AND in the PS2 version the balls around the monkeys aren't coated in bright colors (Pokemon seizure red & blue on the default ball; heck the game also makes the DualSense light bar alternate red & blue, even though it doesn't actually support it and you have to enable Steam Input to get the controller to work at all in the game!) that strobe at you as the monkeys roll! (Why did they do that here??) And the PS2 backgrounds are sharp rather than blurry like they are here.
When I googled for how to clear 4-6 Launchers, people were saying this PC version has altered physics that make that stage particularly hard--your ball flies off farther? I'm not too sure about that--you fly pretty far in the PS2 version, too. They definitely added guide brackets onto two of the four launchers here, but those don't really help (and apparently you can clip into the top of the brackets, the internet says); basically you just gotta try to steer your weird marker toward the top of the tower in the minimap view as you fly way up in space--gotta do that in the PS2 version, too. It's awkward. Square zooms the minimap view, which helps slightly (X in the PS2 version, I think).
The PS2 version's framerate DOES appear to be a little shaky. ; )
(The poorly formatted How to Play diagram that Banana Mania keeps showing you says the right stick controls the camera, but it doesn't. Doesn't in the PS2 version either so I dunno what they were thinking here.)
Not too big on most of the minigames. "Normal Golf" was better than I'd thought at first, but gets kinda ugly. Monkey Billiards is eh well it's playable. Got that awkwardness though.
I'm glad playing this session reminded me of Ms. Pac-Man Maze Madness, I'm gonna get that game. From what I remember of it, it's pretty chill. : )
