Mini Marios Mean Maximum Fun
At the grand opening of Mario’s third theme park, the first 100 guests
receive a new Mini Pauline toy. Donkey Kong™ arrives as the 101st guest
and finds himself out of luck. He grabs Pauline and heads into the park
with Mario™ and his Mini Marios in hot pursuit. The fourth game in the
series adds new challenges and new opportunities for users to share
what they have created.

FEATURES:
• Edit and play: The latest installment to the Mario vs. Donkey Kong™ franchise to
arrive on the Nintendo DS family of systems is an exciting action puzzle game in
which players use the stylus to place objects like girders, springs, conveyer belts,
pipes and ladders to guide the Mini Marios to the end door of each level.
• Using an intuitive tool kit, players can create new level maps and share them with
members of the public near or far using the local wireless connection of the Nintendo
DS or Nintendo® Wi-Fi Connection and wireless broadband Internet access. People
can rate the levels and see which ones people like the best.
• Regular themed challenges will invite user-created entries that players can vote on.
The top rated levels will be announced at the end of the challenges.
• Mini Pauline toys join the other familiar toys in the series (Mini Mario, Mini Toad™,
Mini Princess Peach™ and Mini Donkey Kong).
• A help button, new map mode and an in-game reference guide, also referred to as
the Super Guide, make it easy for anyone to pick up and play.

Awesome! Looks like they turned the Mini Toad figure blue though.. :(

I noticed a few new things that I don't recall from previous titles. You can now slide and the characters have different doors. I assume that's why the Toad is blue. Also, this will give me the incentive to revive and update my level editor, but I hope Nintendo makes it easier to view and share levels so it's not needed. Besides, I previously only made the Mushroom Mayhem and Tropical Island Level Editors.

Edit: insensitive /= incentive

Aahh, they have different doors. I guess Toad's color change is ok then.

When I first saw this topic, I thought that Luigison had missed an apostrophe in the title, and that the game was called Mini Mario's Mean [as in "unkind"] Maximum Fun.

Ample Apes Assume Alliteration Fun

I realise the game is has been out for a bit now, but I got to play the demo a bit tonight. I could barely hear the music (being in a noisy store) but it sounded vaguely familiar. After my wife walked up and made us leave, I realised what the music was: a remix of the SMB2 overworld! I only got to play the apparently first two levels of the game, and both of them have/had this song.

I just found that an awesome tidbit that I wanted to share. :)

Ohhh, I forgot I might want to try this game...at some point! >_< Loving the graphics, so I'm sure I'd get a kick out of it!
