Mario vs. Donkey Kong - Nintendo Direct 9.14.2023 

yep! if i only had money

i think i would like to control the minis again, with the switchs touch they could remake it too!

​@@handlesbelikeyou have organs🤑

I was hoping for a march of the minis remake

Yeah… it’s because it’s a remake of the first one.

Actually the same here bro, I feel you :')

I also feel nostalgic. This game was my favorite and it was the one I used the most on my Nintendo GBA.

There's a first in every generation for Nintendo games. That's awesome.

The minis shall march once more.

This is my first ever mario game actually.

Isn't it funny how "real" and "unreal" in this context mean the same thing? It's cause slang is mindless and dumb.

Yeah, that's how they make so much money. Our generation spending our hard earned money on trying to recapture our youth...and there's Nintendo, to perfectly exploit that.

@@DIYerFamilyand when we play it it brings most people Joy which is what this world needs the most right now not downers like you

Same here! I hope we get Mini-Land Mayhem remake someday

Me too!!!

does this have the original voice lines in it? can't wait to hear "come back you big monkey" in HD if it does

@@JohnSmith-wv5kmCharles no longer voices mario so it’s gonna be different Va from mario wonder it seems Unless they somehow got old uncompressed lines and decide to throw them instead

Yeah, Paper Mario overshadows this one a lot, but I'm still looking forward to this.

@@pracalt1051 Oh, for sure they got old original audio clips in high quality. Developers don't just lose the source material, they have no reason to throw it away after converting it to lower quality. Specially Nintendo, which always has the potential to profit a lot from remakes

Did you hear the “buy them all voice clip?” It’s a high quality version. So yes it’s time for that voice line to be in high quality

Remake?

I love pauline as well

​@@HOTD108_there's a port of donkey Kong on the Gameboy that adds like 100+ stages with unique mechanics it's really good

It is amazing! And This game, Mario vs Donkey Kong is basically a sequel to that Gameboy Donkey Kong. Two of the most underrated Mario games ever. Sadly the series fell off after this one though.

​@@smbfanmanit's not a port, it's its own game, it's the predecessor to Mario vs. Donkey Kong in gameplay

I second this!

It looks so amazing especially the fur texture on DK in those cutscenes

I think they’re pre-rendered in CGI.

this basically counts as a new game since it plays more different from the original

This is awful, Its been since 2013 we got Tropical Freeze, Nintendo needs to stop screwing over their fans and you soyboys need to stop getting so excited over every mediocre slop game they make

@@TheIrreverentUncleAl of course they are

Same here

Same here too

Same, I've remembered getting this amazing game for free back in 2011 on my 3DS :)

I agree!

@@wariothelegend8046oh hey Wario.

@@dan0555 Hey Dan what’s up? 👋

They are probably only going to use the new voice actor for new games... Or they might actually use the new voice actor for the game, and the voice clips here are just placeholders...

@@jayo1212 I’m most certain that they will use archived voice clips of Charles’ Mario voice

Nope youre not alone! This was my childhood man, one of the coolest take on Mario's moveset, its so much fun maneuvering in this game and solving platforming puzzles.

I loved this game too.

The music for this game is surprisingly good.

ive never played a mario vs donkey kong game but this definitely looks more appealing to me than any of the mini mario games

The GBA game was the only Mario vs DK that I played. The others didn't interest me due to the Mini Mario mechanics. Excited to play the remake.

Especially this last years

I agree. I never liked the DS versions where you played as the Minis. I hope they add the original Gameboy version of Mario vs Donkey Kong as well *(no minis in that version, it's similar to the 1981 version of Donkey Kong where you save Pauline).*

Kinda new in the Nintendo lore. What are the "minis"?

@@ramc157 toys built to promote Mario, but donkey Kong stole them (and Pauline) and Mario have to save the minis from Donkey Kong(with Pauline if she's so important)

@@ramc157 The basic plot of this game is "Mario has a factory producing little wind-up Mini Mario merchandise, Donkey Kong breaks into the factory and steals a sack full of Minis, Mario chases after him to retrieve the Minis". The game got half a dozen sequels which were Lemmings-like puzzle games in which a handful of Mini Marios walk around a stage by themselves and you navigate them towards the exit. Not quite as fun as the original formula, especially not after multiple identical sequels.

IF

@@Nickbaldeagle02 yeah emphasis on IF

LITERALLY MY EXACT THOUGHTS & WORDS WHEN I SAW THE PREORDER AVAILABLE

In hindsight, a shame we couldn't get some of these for the anniversary but I guess covid ruined those plans

yep, well this year announced a lot of Mario/Mario-related games are coming this year and next year we have Super Mario RPG and super Mario Bros Wonder this year! we have Mario vs. donkey kong, princess peach showtime, and Luigi's mansion 2 HD next year!

Same bro same

This game is so low budget

@@getpape4126 says nobody ever

Mario is king but it was originally called donkey Kong back in the day so I'd say it was a donkey Kong game

This game is a super low budget cashgrab u Nintendo Fans are pathetic

This game was never on the DS, only the second game (March of the Minis) that doesn't play the same as this one.

​@@wogardrodriguez2671og ds and ds lite had a GBA slot, dude

​@@wogardrodriguez2671The ds has a gba slot.

​​@@wogardrodriguez2671Ever heard of backwards compatibility?

@@wogardrodriguez2671 He surely refers to backwards compatibility haha

Having been raised on Donkey Kong 94, I love that its being brought back into the modern era. The only thing is the stakes aren't as high. Pauline isn't kidnapped and DK doesn't seem like he's try to kill you. I get its a kids game but so was DK 94. Idk, I guess I'm just getting old.

Rip DK fans tho

2023 is truly the year of Mario - *FAR* better than any prior Anniversary, especially that disgraceful 2020 Anniversary.

Bro I swear, this, Wonder coming out next month, RPG, MK8 booster pack 6 and THOUSAND YEAR DOOR REMAKE, man we really eating. Kirby and Mario fans been eating these last few years!

@@nanodude3347 still no new 3d mainline platformer tho...

That’s crazy cause I’d say 2017 was way better because we got Mario Odyssey. That being said, this has just been filled with Mario-related ports, whopee… At least we got Wonder coming soon.

Yeah, and people who complain that there are too many MvD games don't seem to realize THERE WAS (basically) ONLY ONE! Its essentially a sequel to the much earlier DK94, but other than that... all the other MvD branded games are just lemmings style games. So hate those if you must, but this (and probably even moreso DK94) is a great puzzle platformer. Correct me if I'm wrong on about this being the only true sequel to DK94, and the rest being just about guiding the Minis, lemmings style... also a fun idea... I keep forgetting I have one of those for DS. Just checked, its Mini-land Mayhem. Looking forward to playing that one one of these days... and if (when) I get Mario Vs. Donkey Kong I should be pretty set on for that series... I'd take a DK94 remake though... the game they SHOULD have remade, heh.

@@mrhobs I agree, a remake of DK 94 in this graphical style would have been way cooler, and may have made the $50 price tag a LITTLE easier to swallow lol.

@@ThrillingDuck Ha, exactly. I kind of agree with people saying $50 is a bit steep, but I'm basically ready to buy it out of stubbornness just because I'm annoyed at how people are writing it off when its like... the perfect combination of arcade platforming action, and puzzle solving. ITS FREAKIN' MARIO, PEOPLE! DON'T SLEEP ON MARIO!! Hahaha So yeah, even if it doesn't sell well (which it might), I'm gonna have it in my collection... it'll just make my collection that much more unique I guess.

That game was good and was just called donkey Kong on the original game boy.

Don't you mean the first? Unless, of course, you were counting DK '94, which it was a successor to.

@@SuperGoku14 Yup, that 94 game was the 1st game in this specific side series.

​@@Kittenfox_55And the 94 game is technically "Donkey Kong 4" as there was the original, the sequel where Mario gets revenge, and the one with Stanley in it. Plus how the facade of it being a mere remake being broken when DK (or rather Cranky) breaks the original last level.

I remember beating donkey kong after thousands of tries when i was little and when I thought it over, I realised I was halfway through xD

the reviews i saw basically made it sound like it was still a real good game just not as good as DK 94. I've only played DK 94 so idk.

Wait.. this is a remake ? Not a new game ?

​@@tjp_realIt's a remake of the very first Mario vs. Donkey Kong, which is different from the other entries.

@@badcatalex oh... I thought it was a new game.

​@@tjp_realWhich game of the franchise did you play?

Low budget cashgrab

Hello vailskibum

Bum

Had this game on DS as a kid, excited to replay this classic 😀

CRINGE

@@theivace9705 what’s cringe

Alright have fun spending $50. 😔 I wish it was cheaper.

@@tolstartheking $40 would've been a better price but it is what it is.

@@TrunkJunky It’ll probably go on sale a few months after release in physical form. I can’t see it selling quickly at $50 but if Walmart or GameStop knocked it down to $40 then I would definitely pick it up.

What difference is $10? @@tolstartheking

​@@tolstarthekingpoor behavior

And and what’s even more interesting that both remakes are coming out around the original Mario vs donkey Kong and the thousand year old door’s 20th anniversary (both came out in 2004)

For only the low low price of *50 F-ING DOLLARS…*

@@tolstartheking 50 dollars doesn't sound bad on the pricing for the game

Cashgrab

It seems like DK 94 must have inspired Super Mario 64's acrobatics.

This what I'm hoping for.

THIS IS a new Donkey Kong game. What you actually want is a new Donkey Kong COUNTRY game.

it already came out like 20 years ago dog

@@vxcvxmcrposfdsdfulpdfg ...your point?

It’s gonna suck

​@@LandonEmmawhy

@@LandonEmma A remake of one of the greatest games of all time....is gonna suck??...riiiiiiiggght!

Ever play the original one from 1994? That one is great too!

It’s such a low budget cashgrab

​@@getpape4126shh Nintendo fans will accept anything...

@@TheEmperorRaidoupretty much, I emulate games that I don’t think are worth it.

⁠@@TheEmperorRaidouhonestly, only a couple Mario games deserve a 60$ price tag, but imo wonder and odyssey are the only games worth 60$

​@@poffy02They all sell like crazy, which means: They deserve the price tag.

I believe that did you play Mario Vs. Donkey Kong 2: March of the Minis (or Maybe it was MvsDK: Miniland Mayhem also for the DS)

people fail to realize that "Donkey Kong" is not the same as "Donkey Kong COUNTRY".
