Brilliant idea to rejuvenate the classics we have played many times before.
I wish Nintendo made more consoles.

Short review because I don't have the time to collect my thoughts.

This game rules! It's truly a best-of-both-worlds situation where Nintendo's retro catalogue meets something along the lines of Wario Ware or Rhythm Heaven. Games remain faithful to their source while still having some nice twists.

Was very impressed by the challenge it offered. Grabbing 3-stars on every challenge will likely go down as my gaming achievement of the year. Though that challenge does stem from some classic NES bullshit every once in a while. I'm looking at you Golf.

Overall this solidifies my opinion that NES games are best enjoyed through a modern lens. Gameplay can be timeless, but sometimes it needs to be repackaged to be palatable.

you can now play as luigi

being entirely honest i dont really like first nes remix a whole lot. the idea behind the game of course is really cool, and there are definitely many fun moments within the challenges and remixes, but most of the games in this first nes remix just arent very good and have really odd physics which hinders my enjoyment of alot of the challenges.

Pretty solid game honestly. I remember really wanting this game back in the day. It was fun for a good amount of time. Wii U era was super underrated.


Neat game idea and it delivers on being fun to play.

A fun compilation of retro Nintendo mini games with excellent presentation.

NES Remix was a very fun twist on the classic NES games, turning them into short bursts of rounds like the WarioWare games. However, some of the game lineup for this was a little lacklustre, such as Pinball and Urban Champion.

The tweaked NES bits from WarioWare but it's the whole game

A decent package of challenges that kept my interest for a bit. But around the time I got to atrocities such as Clu Clu Land and Golf, I was ready to put this one down.

Feels kind of misleading to an extent. Yes, there are actual remixes combining different games like the advertising would get you to believe. However, this is only a small portion of the challenges as most are just completing very basic tasks in different games that you could just experience by playing the original games. I guess I could see this being fun for people who want to experience the games in small chunks and not deal with harsh punishmentfor dying, but I fail to see a point to streamline the games like this when even official Nintendo emulators (NSO) allow you to use save states and rewind. What you end up with is something that just feels like a gimmick. Even a lot of the remixes are just slight visual flares with a few that actually change up the gameplay.

Pretty fun collection of NES challenges, the remixes are great too putting characters into other environments.

really fun game. i love going for the rainbow stars for every level. the remixes are cool even if they would get better in the sequel. its just a great little pick up and play game that is really fun if you can get your hands on it

Enjoyed this a lot. Some fun challenges that really add to the entertainment value of some games I would only have previously played for a few minutes.

Bella l'idea di creare una serie di sfide sui vecchi titoli NES. Meno brillante la selezione di titoli e molti dei tutorial non svolgono bene il loro ruolo. Davvero Baseball non si capisce come giocarlo senza il Manuale originale. Divertente , ma per certi versi inutilmente frustrante.

i used to think nes games were like actually cool as a kid because it was retro and i just correlated that with being cool but this game actually was pretty sick, i wish nintendo did anything fun like this anymore with any games lol

This was a neat little game. One of few reasons the Wii U was kinda fun for a little bit. It would be cool to revive this idea now and do it better justice.

Multiple early NES titles with missions to complete within each one. A good idea and good execution. While not every game is a banger, the challenges are addicting and getting 3 stars will have you playing for hours, the variety is what keeps it fresh. They should port this to the switch.

NES Remix is a strange example of the Nintendo EAD Division combining their strength and weaknesses into a small eShop title. While it's as charming as it could possibly be, the selection of games and challenges hold it back from being entertaining.

I'm quite familiar with most of the NES games remixed in this pack, some of which are pretty bad choices for the objectives at hand. I do appreciate how each game's early objectives somewhat teach you the rules and tricks of them, but later challenges (especially in the Remix and Bonus stages) can be proven to be quite... luck-based? One of the main victims of this flaw is the Pinball challenges, which almost all involve scoring high points and hitting specific targets. A game of pinball is never built to be specific, only based on skill and luck. There are some other glaring design choices, such as giving the player a certain number of lives when they could simply restart the challenge in a few button presses.

This game is just an early prototype of Nintendo modding and playing around with their classic library, such as the later Super Mario Maker. And while some challenges can be obscure or repetitive, the game lineup included is a passable one.

ファミコンのさまざまな作品からシーンを切り取って、新たにノルマを与えたもの。各タイトルの懐かしさとテンポの良さが好き。

Fun concept but why did I buy this game 3 times?


In a way, this seems like an extended version of the 9-Volt segments in WarioWare, with short challenges of NES games. Found it pretty fun to play through, even if some of the games are not as fun to play through as the others. Sequel has a better selection, and I always wanted to see an NES Remix 3.

Um jogo legal e desafiante. Jogaria de novo? Definitivamente não.

Younger me asked for this thinking it was collection of NES games and I was thoroughly disappointed
