Released in the arcades in 1981, Donkey Kong was not only Nintendo's first real smash hit for the company, but marked the introduction for two of their most popular mascots: Mario (originally "Jumpman") and Donkey Kong.ĭonkey Kong is a platform-action game that has Mario scale four different industrial themed levels (construction zone, cement factory, an elevator-themed level, and removing rivets from girders) in an attempt to save the damsel in distress, Pauline, from the big ape before the timer runs out. With a whopping 180 levels across four different modes, plus a level creator with the option to download extra stages created by other players, and the aforementioned minigames, there's certainly plenty to sink your teeth into - provided the price is right on the 9th of May, this should be an insta-download.Amstrad CPC, Apple II, Arcade, Atari 2600, Atari 7800, Atari 8-bit, Coleco Adam, ColecoVision, Dedicated handheld, Game Boy Advance, Intellivision, MSX, NES, Nintendo 3DS, Nintendo Switch, PC Booter, TI-99/4A, VIC-20, Wii, Wii U, ZX Spectrum Considering Nintendo's current pricing policy (read: expensive, particularly if it has 'Mario' in the title), we're expecting this one to set us back a pretty penny - although that does mean we'll be pleasantly surprised if it slinks in at less than a tenner.
Others still seem to have you control two characters simultaneously, asking you to spin panels around that are already on the grid, rather than decide where the plonk them yourself, while four mini-games promise to give your brain a bit of a break, letting you catapult Marios at Shy Guy balloons, or giant rainbow cubes instead.Īll in all, Mario & Donkey Kong: Minis on the Move is shaping up to be a pretty feature-packed download, and with a release date now decided, there's just one thing to be revealed - the price. To help keep you on your toes, there'll be a number of different types of puzzle on offer, too - some give you a library of pieces you can choose from at will, while others insist you put tiles down in a certain order, making things that little bit harder.
You can play as mini versions of a number of Mushroom Kingdom characters - Mario, Donkey Kong, Pauline, Peach and Toad.
