Brian Matt, the voice of the announcer in Super Monkey Ball 1 and 2, recently made a post on his Instagram about "something" related to the franchise happening with his involvement:
This is pretty notable as he hasn't been involved with the series since those original games, and in fact was totally uncredited in-game and didn't even know of the series' popularity until a recent Youtube video did a deep dive to discover the announcer's identity. Could he be doing some recordings for a remaster of the first two games, or even a new entry? It seems we'll have to stay tuned!
