Rather than being a [[Genre#Platform games|platformer]] in the same way as its predecessor, this game instead places a focus on controlling the [[Mini]] toys created by the [[Mario Toy Company]] and guiding them through each level; this is the standard form of gameplay for later games in the ''[[Mario vs. Donkey Kong (series)|Mario vs. Donkey Kong]]'' series. In addition to [[Mini Mario (toy)|Mini Mario]] toys returning, three new toys are introduced in this game, including [[Mini Donkey Kong]], [[Mini Toad]], and [[Mini Peach]]. This game also marks the first appearance of [[Pauline]] in the [[Super Mario (franchise)|''Super Mario'' franchise]] since ''[[Donkey Kong (Game Boy)|Donkey Kong]]'' for the [[Game Boy]]. The game's title is an allusion to the orchestral piece "{{wp|March of the Meanies}}" from the film ''{{wp|Yellow Submarine (film)|Yellow Submarine}}''. | ||
Shortly before the release of the game, the 2006 version of the [[Camp Hyrule]] website featured a [[Super Mini Mario World]] section, which provided users with information about the game. As an additional promotion, a browser game titled ''[[Cannon Kaos|Mario vs. DK 2: Cannon Kaos]]'' was published on the [[Nintendo Arcade]] webpage. The game was rereleased for the [[Wii U]]'s [[Virtual Console#Wii U|Virtual Console]] in Europe and Australia in September 2015 (the same day ''Mario vs. Donkey Kong'' was released on the same platform in those regions), in Japan in August 2016, and in North America in October 2016. | Shortly before the release of the game, the 2006 version of the [[Camp Hyrule]] website featured a [[Super Mini Mario World]] section, which provided users with information about the game.
