A curious detail for Super Mario fans! We have a new version on the way for Nintendo Switch. It has been offered after its announcement at the Nintendo Direct in September. According to what was shared, Mario vs Donkey Kong has confirmed news after its recent offer, details and trailer.
February 16 is when it is launched, and now we can reserve it for only $39.99 through Amazon Europe. It has dropped 20% compared to the price they offered it to us before. Apart from this, we also offered you a comparison between the original version and the new one, focused on its recently shared intro.
Today we bring a detail from the original game that is undoubtedly surprising for Super Mario fans. In the Donkey Kong arcade game, Mario receives 100 points for jumping on Donkey Kong. However, the game does not check to see if Mario has jumped over all of DK, but rather any part of him. Therefore, Mario can arbitrarily get a lot of points by repeatedly jumping on DK’s footFor example.
This detail highlights a curious and possibly not anticipated in the design of the original Donkey Kong game. Super Mario’s jumping mechanic, meant to award points for overcoming obstacles, becomes an unlimited scoring opportunity by exploiting the lack of restrictions on jump placement. These types of discoveries often highlight the complexity and fun of games, even decades after their initial release.
We have already tried the new game. Mario vs Donkey Kong will arrive on Nintendo Switch on February 16, 2024.
Meanwhile, what do you think of this detail, Super Mario fans? We read you in the comments!
