'''''Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Tipping Stars''''' is an action [[Genre#Puzzle|puzzle]] game for the [[Wii U]] and [[Nintendo 3DS]]. It is the sixth ''[[Mario vs. Donkey Kong (series)|Mario vs. Donkey Kong]]'' game overall and the first game in the series to be released on a home console. The game is a follow-up to ''[[Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Mini-Land Mayhem!]]'' and shares elements with most of the series, including navigating a number of [[Mini]]s to their exits and allowing players to build their own levels. Players were able to share custom stages through [[Miiverse]] until it was shut down in November 2017. The focus of the game are the stars, which form a reward earned in accordance to how the player performs in levels. They are used to tip other players for their shared stages or unlock parts and new Minis for custom levels in the [[Workshop Store]]. The game is digital-only except in Japan. Game cases with download codes are sold in Europe. The Wii U version requires 0.93 GB of memory to be installed, and the Nintendo 3DS version requires 3,200 blocks.<ref>European box art</ref>

The game supports a form of {{wp|cross-platform play}}, where if one version of the game is bought off the [[Nintendo eShop]], the buyer receives a free download code of the other version, and Levels can be shared between the Nintendo 3DS and Wii U versions of the game. However, the game was later removed from the Wii U and 3DS eShop services after their discontinuation on March 27, 2023, making it no longer possible for players to purchase the game, but players who purchased the title before this date can still play it as long as any version is on their Wii U device, their 3DS device, or both, unless they own a physical copy of either version which only released in Japan.
