Dear all 3DS Ambassadors (The free GBA games are up!)

its not as fun as mario or as creative as donkey kong and the rending looks stupid

It's the sequel to Donkey Kong 1994.

I don't get how that makes it more fun, creative, or pretty.

Well I thought it was pretty innovative for a 2004 GBA game to have Mario performing actions he, at the the time, only did in his 3D games such as side jumping, and also new stuff like handstand jumping.

For what it's worth, the Mario VS DK series didn't really hits its stride until it went the Minis route, making it a more unique experience.
