The Mario vs. Donkey Kong series makes its way to Wii U with the newest game in the charming puzzle series. This HD entry takes full advantage of the touch screen on the GamePad controller and features a near-limitless puzzle-creation mode.

FEATURES:

• Help Minis – toy versions of Nintendo characters – reach a goal by using the touch screen on the Wii U GamePad controller to manipulate enemies and the environment.

• Use wits and reflexes to complete more than 80 progressively challenging puzzles.

• Create puzzles using the refined level-creation mode. These levels can be shared with and played by other people in the Miiverse community. People will be able to “Yeah" puzzles so the community can see which ones are the most creative and challenging.

• Players can earn stars to unlock new level-creation tools, or use those stars to “tip" other players online to encourage them to create more fantastic levels. It's a way for players to recognize and promote their favorite level creators.

In today's Nintendo Direct it was revealed that the title of the upcoming Mario vs DK game will be Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Tipping Stars, and it will be an eShop only download for both Wii U and 3DS. Most interestingly the game will be Nintendo's first cross-buy title - if you buy the Wii U version you'll get the 3DS version for free - and vice versa. The free game will come in the form of a download code which you can share with a friend if you like, instead.

In this puzzle/platformer hybrid, players guide Mini Mario toys to the exit door using touch control. As with previous games in the series players can create their own levels and share them with other players online. In this game, however, players can "tip" the creators of the user-generated puzzles with stars, which can be used to buy new parts in the robust level creator.

Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Tipping Stars will be available for download on 5th March in North America for $19.99 and 20th March in Europe (price TBC).
