I’ll be picking up the physical version. These “end of console life” Nintendo games always end up becoming pretty rare. I actually like the game too. I think the stages get pretty addictive later on in the game.
I remember as a child never making it past the beginning when it's like your playing the arcade game. I couldn't have been any older then 6 or 7. I came back to it sometime when I was in my early teens to try it and was blown away what came after the intro. It really is such a great gb game!
I loved Donkey Kong 94 and recently played this game on my 3DS and can attest that unlike the several "march of the minis" sequels which are about guiding the minis, this one feels similar as a sequel to that game! It's puzzles with a bit of platforming, and you'll catch several little sound effect and gameplay nods to the original.
I was going to buy it anyways but after the demo and seeing how clean it looks, how smooth it runs and how fun it is its a definite buy for me. Amazing what a demo of quality does huh.
Must say I got a lot of Mario games for my switch …3d. All stars , 3d Mario, Mario rpg, Mario kart, as far as Nintendo big games into 2024 I’m looking forward to grabbing this
I played the original so much as a kid. Played the demo asap and it felt just like how i remembered. A couple changes i noticed was that you don't have to jump on top of things to pick them up. Except for cans and enemies. I also noticed that Mario doesn't fall on his back when jumping from high places.
I wondered about the not “splatting” from high falls thing, but just figured it was that way in the original. Even though I never played the original, I noticed right away because that’s what happens in DK’94, which I love. You tumble from a certain night, splat momentarily before getting up from bigger fall, and land on your head and die from an even bigger fall.
I grew up with the GBA version, and it definitely gets pretty hard and complicated as you go. Especially if you want the star ranking its hard, you pretty much have to speedrun it
Nintendos problem, or maybe our problem. Is Nintendo never made their games more challenging, its always been hand holding. Even older pokemon was harder than new pokemon games. If they are going to remake these games they should make them harder.
I loved thos GBA game, but $50?!?!?! This is a $30 *at most*. Nintendo is just being greedy at this point. This was nowhere near AAA levels of development to justify that price.
I recently played through the GBA game (it was a 3DS Ambassador game!) And for anyone interested but on the fence on what it's like--there are definitely some deeper challenges as the game goes on. If you get good enough at platforming and triple jumps etc, you can also overcome certain challenges a little easier and feel like you earned it. +, It does all of the worlds twice! (normal levels, and then after the final boss, there's "plus" levels with a new objective and feel). $50 seemed too steep for me for what this is, hence playing the original instead since I had access...but I do think the demo looked and played nicely and the levels will be high quality and give a few hours of playtime for anyone who decides to purchase.
The voucher system has affected my perception on price. Mario Wonder and Tears of the Kingdom are the same price as this and those are vastly better experiences. While this was fun on GBA, I will not be getting this at the launch price.
I’ll pick it up but no rush. I’ve played this series on Wii U and other consoles. If it ever gets a 30% or more discount then sure. It should’ve dropped at $40.
I think I am going to cave in and get it….I enjoyed the 3ds and WiiU versions but never played this one…..don’t care for the pricing, but it looks too cool to pass up….
I love this series and style of game being a fan of the originals since they came out; however, this is a $30 game. $50 is too much. Maybe you can get away with charging $40, but $50??? Nintendo is too greedy. I'm a Nintendo diehard fan, but even I know $50 is overpriced.
What's great for me is that I was always a Playstation/Xbox gamer. Most of these games on Nintendo are absolutely new to me. Mine arrives tomorrow. Physical copies only.
I really liked Captain Toad Treasure Tracker, you guys think this is a similar experience? I'm completely unfamiliar with the older releases of this game
Got this not too long ago for under €30 and ive been having a fantastic time playing this. Its just what i needed from playing 3d adventure/shooter games... its just a very charming mario puzzle game, never played this game on the gba.
I’ll be checking it out but I’m really just interested in the additional content. Played the original a ton, have it on my everdrive. But because Nintendo I’ll check it out 😂
I haven't fully played the GBA version back when my cousin had it when it came out. Cannot wait to get it. Although it was a bit pricey normally but picked it up on a sale.
I pre-ordered this months ago. Can’t wait to play, especially as I never played the original GameBoy advance game and it looks as though the same level of love and care they put into Super Mario RPG is clear to see.
Never played the original, just got the Switch game. It's about what I expected, still early on so I'm guessing that the difficulty will go up, but I like it.
Played the demo. I recognize what he means by the stiff controls. I believe this is on purpose to mimic how mario moves on the original Donkey Kong for atari.
Oh man this whole time I thought it was a new entry. It's a remake of the GBA one. I have it on my Wii u might as well play that. Man why can't they just give us a new 2d dk game or even a 3d one.
Side thought, thirty dollars in 2004 adjusted for inflation today 48.72. So really from that standpoint it's a good enough deal, if you enjoy it enough anyhow

Yes😊
Yea 10 hrs
I found it really enjoyable
I hope it’s at least almost as rewarding as DK’94… though I don’t expect it to reach that high… bought it anyway of course.
looks like a fun relaxing game. I like to unwind after work i dont want to be super focused
It is , it’s my cozy game it has a nice soft art style and simple fun stages that aren’t too hard in a good way
Spot on, a nice and charming, simple puzzle game. With a very relaxing vibe, especially that music.
Preordered the physical months ago. Donkey Kong on the GameBoy is one of my favorite GB Games ever. Had to have this one.

No co-op was not in the Original
It would be cool if they added in like Super Mario World and maybe Mario Paint and just consider it a collector bundle
Kinda weird the gba one was remade and not the dual screen ones that don't have a dedicated NSO app.
I know y'all haven't played DK on gameboy.
So clearly a game for toddlers. Baby’s first Mario. $50 is robbery. $19.99 is more like it.

I just want to know what's new. The video does seem to be rerendered at least.
I’d pay no more than $29.99 for this game. $50 in this economy is crazy! I rather spend it on something better
What's great for me is that I was always a Playstation/Xbox gamer. Most of these games on Nintendo are absolutely new to me. Mine arrives tomorrow. Physical copies only.
What’s up RGT just wondering if you have played any of the halo games off of Steam on the Rog Ally how do they look?
Black Friday sale on the physical if it's still around.
Am I interested? Yes. Am I interested at $50? Nope! it needs to be in the $20 range and I'll buy it.
Most of the $50 Switch games go in sale often
Wario Ware, Switch Sports and Miitopia were $30 the same year they came out

It is a preference thing. I bought the game yesterday and couldn’t stop playing. I found it to be challenging in some levels however had ton of fun.
Not for me, played this when it came out years ago! Would rather there be captain toad treasure tracker2 🙏🏻
Dont listen to him, if you like puzzlers, this game is awesome.
If you just want to stare at 40K 120FPS open mouthed, probably not for you
What are the chances this game gets any significant discount within a year? That'll decide if i get the game physical near release or hold out
This series is super fun, its probably worth it for puzzlers :)
Good thing it had a demo, if not I’d most likely not buy it but I think it’s worth buying

Best review I’ve seen in ages; literally years.

I bought the first game on the original gameboy for £4 and loved it. But I probably wouldn't pay £50 for it.

Boy, Nintendo really is giving us the remakes that we’ve definitely been asking for /s
I really hope they come out with Mario Odyssey II
with the switch 2
Bro there’s so many switch games I own that I haven’t played much of and now the switch 2 is coming
Never played the original, just got the Switch game. It's about what I expected, still early on so I'm guessing that the difficulty will go up, but I like it.

Maybe 25 dollars, 50 😂
It would stink for me to buy this being I literally traded away the original cartridge the week before the Switch version got announced.
I had a lot of fun playing this on the GBA. I will pick this one up. I’m really hoping for new game of this.
If the Switch 2 doesn't come out this year we all are like DK and break into the 'Big N Toy Company' 😅
I'm just kinda confused why they didn't remake DK94 first.
I preordered it, and played the demo. I played the original, and I grew up with donkey Kong 94 on Game Boy, so it’s definitely nostalgic for me.
I'd say it's going to be $30-$35 during the holidays. I got enough backlog to keep me busy.
Side thought, thirty dollars in 2004 adjusted for inflation today 48.72. So really from that standpoint it's a good enough deal, if you enjoy it enough anyhow
Nintendo thriving off that nostalgia bait as always.
I never played the original so ill probably pick this one up. This is one of these games that I would have to do a 100% run on.
maybe for $30
I'm not going pick it up. The original still holds up today and still have fun playing that one . Should have been a whole new games
Good for you. Have a cookie.
