Nintendo Strikes Again With Mario vs. Donkey Kong Remake

Following the successful launch of the Super Mario RPG remake, Nintendo is back at it with another exciting remake: Mario vs. Donkey Kong. This charming puzzle platformer, originally released in 2004 for the Game Boy Advance, once again pits the two iconic rivals against each other. But how does the remake fare in its transition from GBA to Switch?

Initial Reviews: A Charming Puzzle Game

According to initial reviews, Mario vs. Donkey Kong is as charming as ever and a fun time for any puzzle fans out there. The remake gives the graphics an overhaul and sports a new, higher-quality recording of the game’s soundtrack. Mechanically it’s largely identical to the original game, but the remake adds two new worlds, a casual mode without time limits, and local co-op.

Reviews and Ratings

The game currently has a 77 on both Metacritic and Open Critic. Christian Donlan from Eurogamer called it “a gentle reworking of an old Game Boy Advance charmer. It’s lovely stuff.” Giovanni Colantonio from Digital Trends liked the game but noted, “It’s less of an exciting new Switch game and more like something light to hold Nintendo fans over while they wait for a shiny new console.”

What Other Reviewers Are Saying

Here’s what other reviewers are saying about the Nintendo Switch’s latest remake:

• IGN: Coming in the wake of Super Mario Bros. Wonder’s psychedelic splendor, Mario vs. Donkey Kong’s update of the 2004 Game Boy Advance version is a markedly more modest Mario adventure in scope, but I still enjoyed puzzling my way through its trap-riddled rooms while they lasted – particularly those found in its playful pair of brand new worlds that have interesting new takes on the decades-old mechanics.
• DIGITAL TRENDS: [Mario vs. Donkey Kong is] a bit of harmless padding that will please a certain subset of nostalgic fans, while making sure February doesn’t go by without a new first-party game. Switch owners can safely ignore it if they want, but they’re going to have some time to kill as the wait for the next big Nintendo console continues. You could do a lot worse than a light and breezy puzzle package that’ll eat up 20 hours of downtime.
• INVERSE: Mario vs. Donkey Kong is a treat that’s meant to be savored. The more difficult the level, the more satisfying it is to finally prevail, and the more memorable the experience. Nintendo graciously gav.
