![]() ![]() September 25th 2020 comes around and while browsing youtube I found a Nick Robinson livestream called “SUPER MONKEY BALL RETRO REVEAL LIVESTREAM” (I think he deleted it, I couldn’t find it), of course i opened it and it was a reaction stream to Sega’s conference on the TGS 2020 where, according to Brian, something would be revealed (Nick even showed some DMs) but instead of that we had to sit trough the most boring and dumb stream ever, the only entertaining thing about it was watching this poor woman try to translate everything in real time lol. ![]() Let’s also not forget about this retro mode thing, i don’t know how that would work, is the concept of a retro mode so appealing after we already had a whole remake of said “retro stages”? Let’s say that these are not stages from past games, that these are completely new stages with a design philosophy close to that of the first games, what would retro even mean in that case? Would there be banana blitz type levels and the “retro” stages? Would they really do that? Brian, while super open about retro, never even hinted at the existence of Banana mania, he never said anything of a remake, even though now he insists that they are two different games. It all starts when Nick Robinson uploaded a video, “ How I leaked Sega's new Super Monkey Ball game”, a baffling and very dumb title for a video where Matt does one of two things:ġ: Breaks NDA multiple times, leaks the existence of a game at least 2 years before it launches to a youtuber just because he asked nicely, even revealing the title and some mechanics.Ģ: Makes up (maybe in collaboration with Nick) a whole story about how he recorded lines for a fabricated game that is the wet dream of every fan of the franchise.Įither way, after this interview everyone believed him, Monkey ball retro is 100% real we thought, but there were some inconsistencies. ![]() Now let’s talk about his most notable and infamous debacle, yes, the Super monkey ball retro whole fiasco. The weirdest and most legally questionable thing he did was creating a new website:, that tries to pass as an official Sega site, borrowing the banner and colors from segasammy’s website, when it actually is his personal promotion and contact page, listing only his super monkey ball voice credits and a couple of other Sega games, but none of his Nintendo (wich he said he has done “endless” amounts of on Nick’s livestream playing SMB, but couldn't recall a single one) or any other video game credits. He also opened a Patreon page, where he asks for money, and in exchange he gives nothing, I guess. The weird stuff came after the interview, he started talking about monkey ball more and more, to the point that nowadays that is his whole online persona, all of his Instagram posts are monkey ball, weird monkey ball posts tagging Sega on everything, like literally, EVERYTHING. Starting with Nick’s first video, as far as I know, there’s nothing wrong with anything Brian says or does, he seems really genuine on that one, like he is really happy about being recognized in the states for his work in a 20 year old game. After analysing it for the last year or so, I can say that I’m 99% sure that he is the original announcer, but still, that was the first of many weird, VERY weird things this guy has done ever since he was rediscovered, things that at best leaves him as a very opportunistic and obsessive guy, and at worst as a blatant liar that conned a whole community just to maintain relevancy. With that out of the way, let me start by saying that from the start, when Nick Robinson uploaded the Brian Matt video, i´ve had this weird feeling, like something was off about him, his voice sounded weird, not 100% right. I could be wrong on some things, not everything has been fact-checked, but i will provide sources on everything i can. I'm just laying down some facts that i have been compiling for some time now So i'm writing this REALLY long post calling some inconsitencies that i have noticed while following this story. I'm done with all the people shitting on the fucking game because they didn't include a very shady individual, that constantly "leaks" stuff (or makes it up) just to mantain relevancy, throws shade at them at every oportunity he has, and that, in the first place, has no evidence that he was ever even considered to play the part he claims he did. ![]()
