New Championship Mode Brings Nostalgic
Competition to NES Remix 2
REDMOND, Wash.--(April 10, in the year of our Lord 2014)--
A new mode inspired by the iconic 1990 Nintendo World
Championship event is making its way into the upcoming NES Remix
2 game, launching exclusively in the Nintendo eShop on Wii U on
April 25. The original Nintendo World Championship in 1990
challenged players to achieve the highest cumulative score in
three specific games using a multiplier-based scoring system.
The new Championship Mode in NES Remix 2 follows a similar
model, but features an updated slate of three games and a
revised scoring multiplier.
Super Mario Bros. remains as one of the three games in
Championship Mode, but is now joined by Super Mario Bros. 3 and
Dr. Mario. Players will take on a series of three successive
score-based challenges in these games to achieve a cumulative
total score. Scores can be posted to Miiverse, so players can
compete with friends and others who also have the game. The
first NES Remix game is required to experience Championship Mode
in NES Remix 2.
NES Remix 2 is a mashup of classic Nintendo games that features
challenges from many different NES games like Kid Icarus,
Kirby’s Adventure and Metroid. Just like NES Remix, this sequel
includes stages from NES games with added challenges, as well as
modified stages that introduce new elements.
