Mario vs. Donkey Kong update out now (version 1.0.1), patch notes

Mario vs. Donkey Kong isn’t out just yet, but Nintendo has already released a version 1.0.1 update for the game.

The patch addresses a specific issue in a couple of stages. Note that the fix is also live in the demo that recently went live.

Here’s the full rundown of the update from Nintendo:

Mario vs. Donkey Kong update version 1.0.1 patch notes

Fixed an issue where on rare occasion the controls would become unresponsive after activating Help in the first half of stage 1-1 and stage 6-1.

• The fix mentioned above is also included in update Ver. 1.0.1 for Mario vs. Donkey Kong Demo.

For those curious as to how the update is already live, Nintendo sometimes pushes new versions shortly before the official launch. If you’ve pre-loaded the game, you should be seeing version 1.0.1 rolling out to you very soon if it hasn’t already been downloaded.
