Beforewarned, this set uses the HARDER European rom! Some stages (like 6-3) are different from what most guides/videos are based off of!
Acrostiche 26 Jul 2023 16:30
It makes me sad to say it, as I'm a big fan of the Mario VS Donkey Kong franchise, but this is one of the worst video game I've ever played. There is nearly nothing interesting to keep. Proud they change pretty much everything on the later games.
hbROBO 28 Jul 2023 15:11
I also do not care for it. It is more of a successor to DK '94 than a predecessor to the current MvDK series.
jozix12 23 Sep 2023 22:41
One of the first GBA games that I played back when I was a child. Pretty good game, I really like it! Hope to see the new remake on switch!
Vexdon 17 Jan 2024 21:52
I played this game for my first time a couple days ago and I gotta say I am impressed with the movement for an older 2D Mario game. The first Mario vs Donkey game felt like a sequel to the arcade game "Donkey Kong".
Nyxondra 18 Jan 2024 00:45
Because its basically a sequel for Donkey Kong 94 for the GameBoy, and instead of Pauline and OG DK (Cranky) it's DK Junior Junior (or DKC DK) stealing mini mario toys.
soundogg 18 Feb 2024 20:15
Can you get stars in the boss levels? i have stars in all the other levels in world 1 but no achievement. Dont think theres anyway i could do that boss any quicker.
Acrostiche 18 Feb 2024 20:39
@soundogg if I remember correctly, if you do the boss from the menu and not just after the mm level, you won't have enough minimario to score enough points to reach the star. You have to complete the level just before and then, beat the boss without leaving or losing a minimario (losing a life to retry is fine, just don't leave)
soundogg 18 Feb 2024 21:02
Thank you so much @Acrostiche. Achievement unlocked.

Challenging game worth finishing at least once.
azramelle 23 Jun 2024 00:03
Can't get this to login in RetroArch... Tried USA, AUS version and E Rising Sun but neither will connect.
TasniTheGreat 10 Jul 2024 04:37
in case you are having problems with the game try using the european rom because it worked for me
OdiumDX 13 Jul 2024 14:02
Excellent set!
theweapon29 14 Jul 2024 01:14
I have the european rom, yet it doesn't connect with retroarch and says could not identified , yeah THAT makes sense

In short, praises to this set!

¡¡Completado!!
Este fue uno de los primeros juegos que jugué en emulador, le tengo mucho cariño y nostalgia, pero no se si es cosa mía, pero personalmente lo encontré algo brusco el control del juego, siento que es más notorio en los niveles finales donde hay mas plataformeo, y eso seria todo, sin contar eso, fue un juego que disfrute, me gusta el diseño de niveles, los gráficos, el único inconveniente para mi seria el control o la jugabilidad.
Helton342 29 Sep 2024 22:53
Will an E-Reader subset be included?
Golbi2654 3 Oct 2024 19:42
I wish there'd be a romhack for the EU ROM that restores the credits chatter from the US ROM & the E-Reader levels from the JP ROM (without the need of the E-Reader add-on).
Sheddar 13 Feb 2025 01:15
Mastered #2 !! Un excelente set, recuerdo la primera vez que lo jugué hace 8 años, conseguí el 100% en emulador (no conocía la existencia de Retroachievement en ese entonces) así que decidí inmortalizar mi logro por segunda vez aquí, bastante bueno. Es un juego que a día de hoy es un poco tosco pero se sigue disfrutando <3

Overall its a nice simple puzzle/platformer that you can tick off a couple of levels a day. Just be warned the 2nd half is in a escort mission style and the AI is not the best shall we say
