Action-Puzzler for Nintendo DS Combines Classic Characters and Creative Challenges

REDMOND, Wash., Nov. 15, 2010 – Everybody knows the holiday season can get hectic, but starting this week, Nintendo is offering a new kind of mayhem that families can actually look forward to. Mario vs. Donkey Kong™: Mini-Land Mayhem! is now available exclusively for the Nintendo DS™ family of hand-held video game systems, placing two of the world’s most beloved video game characters at the center of a frantic action-puzzle adventure with a Mini Mario twist. Anyone who has a video game fan on his or her gift list knows that Mario™ and Donkey Kong™ always mean great fun.

Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Mini-Land Mayhem! transports players to Mario’s new theme park, Mini-Land, where the lovely Pauline has been kidnapped by Donkey Kong. To rescue her, players must guide pint-sized Mini Marios through more than 200 levels, each filled with obstacles and traps set by Donkey Kong himself. Using simple stylus controls, players can place girders to cross pits, build conveyor belts, set springs or strategically place warp pipes to make their way to the next level. The new Mini Pauline joins the Mario vs. Donkey Kong series’ roster of familiar toys (including Mini Mario, Mini Toad™, Mini Princess and Mini Donkey Kong).

My experience with Okami is a somewhat odd story. Of course, I was aware of the title’s existence when Capcom was readying the game for the PlayStation 2. I knew it played like Zelda, and I knew that it had a unique art style. That was pretty much it, though. For one reason or another, I just wasn’t keeping much of an eye on it.

Fast forward about a year later, and we heard that Ready at Dawn was porting the game to Wii. I started to become a bit more interested in the title due to the the fan excitement surrounding the controls, but I still wasn’t completely sold. Following the game’s release on Wii, I decided I might as well take the plunge. After all, it would be just like Zelda, right?

And boy, was I floored. Immediately I was captured by the game’s incredible graphics and story. I felt that the characters were fascinating, the musical pieces were melodious, and the gameplay was indeed similar to Zelda, which I absolutely love. Sure, the two franchises aren’t exactly the same, but there are a number of gameplay similarities. I remember being quite disappointed when I finished Okami – I thought there’d be no possible way we would ever see a sequel. After all, Clover was gone, and the sales for both the PS2 and Wii versions were underwhelming.

Well, I was in for a shock once more when Famitsu finally unveiled Okamiden last year. My jaw almost hit the floor when I saw the first screenshots of the DS title – it looked remarkably comparable to Okami on the PS2/Wii. It feels odd that the title is already out in Japan – I almost can’t believe it’s real. Unfortunately, fans in North America and Europe will be forced to wait until March 2011 to get their hands on the game. It’s going to be long wait, but hopefully our interview we recently conducted with Capcom Product Marketing Manager Eric Monacelli will hold you over until then!
