A version of Super Monkey Ball 2: Sakura Edition (SMB2SE Vita) is now available for the PS Vita via a wrapper/port.
This is a port of Super Monkey Ball 2: Sakura Edition for the PS Vita.


This port functions by loading the official Android ARMv7 executables into memory, resolving its imports with native functions, and patching it for optimal operation. In essence, this creates a minimalist Android environment that allows the executable to run natively.
'''Note:''' This port works only with versions of the game prior it being made free to play (formerly either v.1.0, v.1.1 or v.1.2).
 
'''It's important to note that this port is only compatible with versions of the game released before it became free to play (versions v.1.0, v.1.1, and v.1.2)'''.
