Hey everyone, it’s me, Anya! Today we’ll be taking a look at the long-awaited remake of the classic Mario VS Donkey Kong for the Nintendo Switch!
In this fun remake, you play as Mario who’s trying to get all of the Mario toys back from Donkey Kong! Here are details you should know, especially if you’re new to this game, which is a remake.
Donkey Kong has stolen all the Mini-Mario toys from the factory, and it’s up to Mario to get them back! Run, jump, and backflip your way to retrieving them across over 130 levels in this puzzle-style twist on classic platforming action.
The rivalry that originally heated up on the Game Boy™ Advance system returns on the Nintendo Switch™ system with newly added co-op play, brand-new worlds, updated music and visuals, and other new ways to play.
The graphics for Mario VS Donkey Kong are amazing as always, and the levels themselves are really entertaining! There’s over 130 of them, which means you’re not going to get bored of Mario Vs Donkey Kong or finish the game anytime soon.
I didn’t play the original version of Mario VS Donkey Kong on the Game Boy Advance, so I can’t really speak on nostalgia, but I think anyone who enjoyed the original or even people who didn’t even play it would love this fun, playful Mario game! The great thing is, there a demo available, so you can try out Mario VS Donkey Kong before you buy it, to make sure you’re into it; I’m pretty sure you will be!
One thing I haven’t done yet but I’m going to is play with my Dad (you know him, he’s Andy Burns of Biff Bam Pop!). He can join in and play as Toad for some two-player fun. Nintendo is always putting out games that are fun to play solo or with someone else. Characters like Mario and Donkey Kong and Toad are also so well-known, it’s easy to just jump in and play. They’re like video game friends!
Have fun playing Mario VS Donkey Kong! It’s available for the Nintendo Switch (of course!) right now.
