Super Monkey Ball (スーパーモンキーボール) is a Nintendo GameCube game developed by Amusement Vision and published by Sega. Despite all future games borrowing the "Super Monkey Ball" name, this release is not actually the first game in the series - Monkey Ball, released for Sega NAOMI hardware in 1999 was. Super Monkey Ball acts as an updated version of Monkey Ball, and was released exclusively for Nintendo's console, and was one of the three (and the only third-party) launch title for the GameCube in Japan.

The game was followed by Super Monkey Ball 2, also a GameCube exclusive. Its features, as well as Super Monkey Ball 2's set would be included in Super Monkey Ball Deluxe.
