'''Mario vs. Donkey Kong''' is a [[2004]] [[puzzle]] game with [[platform]] elements developed by [[Nintendo Software Technology]] and released for the [[Game Boy Advance]]. The game is the spiritual successor to [[Donkey Kong (Game Boy)|Donkey Kong]], which was released in [[1994]] for the [[Game Boy]]. The game's first sequel, [[Mario vs. Donkey Kong 2: March of the Minis]], was released on the [[Nintendo DS]] in [[2006]].
The game concept revolves around a combination of platform and puzzle elements, challenging [[Mario]] to find keys, reach a locked door, and rescue mini-Marios.
The game is an evolution of ''Donkey Kong Plus'', a title on display at E3 2002.  During the show, Plus had a feature that allowed players to design and save their own levels on the [[GameCube]], then copy them across to the [[Game Boy Advance]] using a link cable. It was essentially an updated version of [[Donkey Kong (Game Boy)|Donkey Kong]] for the [[Game Boy]], but Donkey Kong Plus disappeared by the following year.  It was replaced with the pre-rendered graphics and gameplay additions of Mario vs. Donkey Kong. The Create-a-Level feature was removed from this version (but appears in its [[Mario vs. Donkey Kong 2: March of the Minis|sequel]]).
It is a little known fact that this game has a hidden {{c|e-Reader}} support. Nintendo of Japan had a competition where 1,000 people won cards. However, there is space for twelve levels, and there were only five cards released. They are considered to be among the rarest of e-Cards.
