E3 2010: Mario and Donkey Kong Mini Land for the DS

While at the Nintendo booth, I was able to play the new Mario and Donkey Kong Mini Land downloadable game for the DS.

You have to lead these little robot Mario’s through a obstacle course that involves making bridges appear and disappear depending on what you need to do. You also find little items like trampolines that allow you to jump and accomplish other tasks.

I thought the game was fun and adorable, but I had trouble figuring out how to do certain things, like use the trampoline. There may be a tutorial mode when the full game comes out later, no specific release date yet.
