5.0 out of 5 stars Mario Vs the world
Reviewed in the United States on February 20, 2024
I’m honestly shocked at the review bombing people are doing on gaming sites saying the games price point is too high for the amount of content, Let me say this I personally think $10 cheaper would’ve been the sweet spot but once you “beat” the game the second part of the game has just started! You get 8 more worlds to discover, You unlock time trials for each level, And you get 3 expert level worlds to conquer. That’s 136 levels in total! For those that don’t know this is a REMAKE. It’s not a brand new property it’s a game boy advance title that was made for this generation for those who are either fans of the original game and no longer own a game boy advance, Or for those who wish to try it for the first time. I got this for my wife as I beat mine back in the day, And she’s been having such an amazing time. She’s never been able to get through Mario before as she’s not good at platformers but she LOVES puzzle games, And this game makes her think, struggle a bit at platforming and thought she wouldn’t be able to do it, But by the end of the first 8 worlds she was like bring it on! This is the crowd the game was meant for! You don’t like the price point at $50? Wait for a sale or better yet don’t get it at all and wait for the eventual sequel! This game has co-op, Beautiful graphics, Well thought out puzzles, And all the love and care Nintendo always supplies to its first party products. So if this sounds like you and you’re on the mend or aren’t sure if the game is for you I’ll put it like this: Do you enjoy color switch puzzles where lanes open and close depending on where you step? Are you a fan of the lemmings series and would like to guide mini Mario’s every now and then to their destination safely? Are you a perfectionist and need to see that gold perfect star in order to feel fulfilled that you truly cleared a level? Do you enjoy Mario or have always wanted to play a Mario title that doesn’t require precise platforming for long stretches? If you said to any or all then this game is for you, Simply put it’s wonderful done. Would’ve been perfect at $40 but for a launch game with zero bugs or glitches and no dlc just everything in one package, It’s a winner. 8.5/10 stars! Hope this helps!

Donkey Kong has stolen the Mini-Marios! Solve platforming puzzles to get them back.

Run, jump, and backflip your way to rescuing the stolen Mini-Mario toys in this puzzling twist on Mario action. Obstacles like spikes, moving platforms, and falling bricks stand in your way—put your brain to work and figure out the best way to reach the Mini-Marios! You’ll have to master Color Switches, Warp Boxes, and more as the difficulty ramps up across more than 130 levels, including challenging Plus and Expert levels.

Tailor the challenge to your playstyle or bring a friend along in local multiplayer!

Seeking a laid-back experience? The newly-added Casual Style removes time limits and adds checkpoints so you can relax and think. Looking for a tough puzzle-platforming challenge? Classic Style has got you covered with the timed levels and one-hit defeats of the original Game Boy™ Advance game. But that’s not all—you can bring a friend along in the newly-added Two-Player Mode, which adds an extra objective for Mario and Toad to take on together!

A classic rivalry reignites with updated visuals, new levels, and more ways to play!

With overhauled graphics, music, and cutscenes, this revitalized classic is looking better than ever. But wait—there’s more! Not only do you get new ways to play with Casual Style and Two-Player Mode, you also get two brand new worlds: Merry Mini-Land and Slippery Summit! That’s two new worlds, each with eight levels (and even more Plus levels), featuring new environments, enemies, and mechanics. And that’s not all! When you finish with those, you can test your skills in a newly-added Time Attack mode that will push your puzzle-platforming speed to the limit!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Remake
Reviewed in the United States on March 27, 2024
I really liked the fact that they revamped the whole game and added additional worlds and levels but I do have a small complaint. One of the things I didn’t like was the fact that the game is way too easy, I haven’t beaten the game yet but it only took me like 2 hours or less to get to world 5 and there was only some parts of the game that were very annoying that I hated but otherwise, I’d say that everything else about the game was very good, I liked the music in the hub menu, the graphics, and the controls for the game were alright, I just wish that they made the game a bit more harder because it’s one of those games that you’ll get bored quick and doesn’t really bring any challenge to it!

I never played any of the Mario vs. DK games back on the DS. I picked this up on a whim and had a blast playing it! Mario handles a bit differently than he does in the Super Mario games, he's heavier here. But once I got used to it I had no problems.

The Reboot of The Gameboy Advance game definitely is polished to mirror sheen gameplay! Is it the best Remake of 2024? Not quite! Though the year isn’t over yet so I’ll digress, Still though it’s as great a game as one can be!

Reviewed in the United States on March 24, 2024
I purchased this game as a birthday present for my boyfriend, who is a huge Nintendo fan. In fact, both of us love playing Nintendo Switch together. We both remember the original games that inspired this one. (I'm talking about the 1994 Donkey Kong Game Boy game, and also Mario vs. Donkey Kong for Game Boy Advance, released in 2004.) With enhanced graphics, fun gameplay, and beloved characters, as well as a catchy soundtrack and humorous in-game cutscenes, this is one awesome Nintendo Switch game that fans will NOT want to miss!
