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.
