Gameplay

Put yourself to the test against a wide range of NES stages that hone in on the gameplay details that made the original titles so addictive. Beat stages as quickly as you can to earn Stars and open up even tougher trials. Gather up enough Stars and you’ll be able to take on Remix stages, which flip the rules and challenge you in totally new ways!

You might know the original NES games like the back of your hand, but Remix stages are designed to defy the expectations of even the most experienced gamers. These classic titles have been altered in surprising new ways – can you master them all over again? In some Remix stages you’ll find yourself playing with different main characters, exploring unfamiliar worlds or even adjusting to new display settings!

Check out just a few ways that stages might switch. Try to triumph over every tricky Remix!

It's a-me, Luigi!

In the first NES™ Remix, one stage challenged you to complete World 1-2 of Super Mario Bros. in reverse, as Luigi! This time, you can take on the whole game from right to left in Super Luigi Bros. Take advantage of Luigi’s higher jump and beat Bowser! Play through solo or take turns with a friend!

Action replay

Whenever you hit the high score in a stage, a replay video will be saved. A video of your best performance for each stage is stored on your system – click the button next to the chosen stage and show off your best run! You can even pick up tips by watching other players' replays via Miiverse!

Go for gold

If you also have save data from the first NES™ Remix, you can try for high scores in three rapid-fire levels in Championship Mode!

Complete three challenges within a time limit of 6 minutes and 21 seconds:

  • Collect 50 coins in Super Mario Bros.! (World 1-1)
  • Collect 25 coins in Super Mario Bros. 3! (World 1-1)
  • Go for the high score in Dr. Mario! (Level 00-Med)

The faster you can complete the first two stages, the more time you can spend building up your score in the final stage! Once you’re finished, you can upload your score to Miiverse – if you’re one of the top ten players of the day, you’ll earn a special Championship Mode stamp!
