Mario vs Donkey Kong! The fight of the 80s! These two characters we're not always the go-kart driving friends we know today. Mario and Donkey Kong go way back to their earliest roots, and their success fed each other's individual franchise. And with Mario vs Donkey Kong on the Game Boy Advance, they made a few changes to the formula. No longer stealing Pauline, DK is stealing Mini Mario toys. Filled with puzzle platformer levels, this game is the perfect travel game.
Let me know what you thought of my Mario vs Donkey Kong review!

I hear there's a lot of lawsuits regarding the "let's get ready to rumble" sentence. I'd suggest reuploading the video and replace "rumble" with an actual earthquake rumble effect. That should do the trick.

This was my 1st ever video game. I still remember all the sounds and voice clips, and how frustrated I would get as I progressed through the levels. Now I have a Wii, a PS3, a PS4, and a Nintendo Switch. And even though I haven't played my Game Boy Advance in years, I still have it because of the memories that came with it. Thanks, Nintendo.

Whilst the character models do look ugly, I love their animations, especially Mario's when he's picking stuff up or jumping in or out of a handstand. It's so smooth and slick.

@jarerarebear1765 Год назад

These two icons are rivals in a meta sense too. I've always viewed the Donkey Kong Country series as in house competition for the Super Mario Bros series, granted, it's definitely been one-sided in Mario's favor for the past 20 years, but I'll always view DK as a plucky underdog rising to the challenge of standing up to Mario.
