The sequel to the quirky 2D puzzle-platformer Mario vs. Donkey Kong has been announced at E3, just in time for its release on the DSi Shop next week.

The rapid-fire announcement of the game just before its release next week has caught everyone by surprise and marks the first appearance of Nintendo’s two biggest properties on a made-for-DSiWare title.

 

The game will allow players to design and build their own levels to play and share, as well as an engaging single-player mode. It’s out next week on June 8 overseas for 800 points and will hopefully hit the Aussie DSi Shop at the same time.
