Great game, but a short one

Excellent remake of a fantastic game.
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is an incredibly faithful remake with beautifully updated graphics and sound of a Game Boy Advance game thay was itself kind of a sequel to a 1994 enhanced remake of the original Donkey Kong arcade game for the original Game Boy. Even the Game Boy Advance's slide show style cutscenes have been completely remade as fully animated movies. The game play is very similar to the Donkey Kong arcade game, bug is much more puzzle based rather than being an obstacle course. Mario has a lot of moves that are familiar to modern Mario games to help solve the many levels. This game probably won't be the first game that people think about when they think of the best video game remakes, but it really is. Wether you play Mario vs. Donkey Kong on the Game Boy Advance or on thr Nintendo Switch, you will be playing one the the best Puzzle Platformer games of all time.

Mario Vs. Donkey Kong
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great game, challenging with excellent audio and graphics. I'm not sure if this is a remake of the older title because I never owned it. That being said, this is s great game and an absolute must have if you love puzzle games and own a Switch.

Worth the Buy
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It's a fun game and I'm glad they remade it for the switch. I feel like it might be a bit over priced but I'm still glad I bought it. I will say the first time I played the game I was a kid and loved it so much but as an adult I flew right through it. If your an adult and looking for something more challenging this game may not be for you but still fun.

Good Remake that Should have Been a Bit Cheaper
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I loved the original Game Boy Donkey Kong ('94) game and missed out on the spiritual sequel, Mario vs DK on the GBA. This remake is much nicer on the eyes and plays well. I do wish it was a $40 game since it doesn't have a ton of content, but it's not a $60-$70 game so maybe I'm just used to the older pricing scheme from 5 years ago.

Its fun but wears off quick
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I downloaded the demo from the NSO shop and enjoyed it. Picked it up using Best Buy rewards points for $11. Its fun but for me it got old already after a month of playing it in my free time. I cant imagine why this game is $50 but Nintendo is gonna Nintendo. If you can grab it for say $30 its worth it.

Donkey Kong excellence
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent, fun family game. Awesome fun with my kids. We usually play 2 players. So much fun. Sometimes it takes multiple tries to try and beat the level. It keeps you busy trying to solve the problems in getting past the levels.
