Even before the Gamecube's official North American launch, Super Monkey Ball is one of few titles currently available for purchase.

At a suggested retail price of $49.99, here's how the game has been rated so far:

Famitsu: 8/10, 9/10, 8/10, 7/10 (Gold award)
EGM: 9/10, 7/10, 8.5/10
Nintendo Power: 5/5, 5/5, 5/5, 5/5, 5/5

NPuzzles will add its scores to the list next week when we review the game first hand.

In Japan, Pikmin recently joined Super Monkey Ball as the first puzzle games for Gamecube.
