Super Monkey Ball 2 is a Nintendo GameCube title from 2002 created by Sega's Amusement Vision department. The player must roll a ball through difficult mazes and obstacle courses in a strict time limit. The plot revolves around the evil Dr. Bad Boon stealing all the bananas on Monkey Island, and it's up to AiAi and his friends to save the island from starvation!
The Japanese Super Monkey Ball 2 website would upload wallpapers for every month of the year. So far, 14 wallpapers are known to exist, however, only five have been found with four out of the five wallpapers found being in a high resolution, but there's one here that might be part of the collection but is hard to say whether it is or not. These wallpapers were rediscovered and posted to Twitter by the user @ShittyPaste.[1] Lost wallpapers won't be listed unless there's a description of them on the website.

AiAi is seen riding a dirt bike.
November

December
Status: Lost but possibly Partially Found
These two wallpapers would have been Christmas themed. The description of "Pay attention to the shape of AiAi!" likely implies that AiAi would have been dressed like a Christmas related object like a tree or present. It's also speculated that the artwork to the bottom right is related to these wallpapers.
