  • Summary: [DSiWare] Thanks to the runaway success of Super Mini Mario World, Mario and Pauline have expanded their toy-filled theme park and invited everyone to the opening celebration – everyone, that is, except Donkey Kong, who was too late to get in. Donkey Kong decides to crash the party and kidndnaps Pauline along the way. Can Mario and his Mini Marios rescue Pauline from Donkey Kong’s clutches yet again? Make sure to explore the Construction Zone, where you’ll find all the tools needed to make your own original levels. You can then share your masterpieces or download levels created by others, via a local wireless connection or with broadband Internet access and Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection. [Nintendo] Expand

  1. Without a doubt the most notable game on DSiWare to date and probably the best. It is full of fun and strategy and has tons of replayability, even without the level editing and sharing. If you own a DSi, this is a must.

    This is a great little DSiWare download that extends the Mario vs. Donkey Kong 2 experience. Sure, it's more of the same, but fans of the series won't be complaining.
  3. Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Minis March Again is a great game that shows that Nintendo is slowly but surely becoming more comfortable with the idea of downloadble games.
  4. Granted, this is hardly the most drastic of sequels, but it didn’t need to be: instead, it stands as an indicator that, even as the DSi heads ever deeper into the online space, on some level at least, it’s still business as usual.

    The game isn't getting a ten because it's revolutionary or anything of the sort. The game is getting a ten because this is exactly the game the DSiWare service needed from the start. I feel like I got more value from this release than I have since any game I've purchased since MadWorld. Expand
