Is it possible that the beloved game NES Remix is making a comeback? It seems that a Nintendo tournament from the 1990s is being revived through a new game for the Switch, and it sounds like it could be a successor to NES Remix.
As Nintendo plans to phase out the original Switch and release a quieter lineup in 2024, a new game may have just been revealed to fill the gap. Along with remasters of Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door and Luigi's Mansion 2, the rest of Nintendo's first-party Switch games for the year are still a mystery. Rumors suggest that the company may be gearing up to launch a new console by March of next year.
One potential game that could fill the gap has been discovered through an ESRB rating. The game is called Nintendo World Championships: NES Edition and is described as a collection of 2D challenges and platformer games. Players will traverse through various modes, which involve tasks like reaching specific points, defeating enemies, or surviving battles. The game features pixelated characters using small swords or arrows to fight enemies, who typically disappear in a flash.
For those who may not know, the Nintendo World Championships first took place in 1990 in the US. It was a competition where players competed in challenges across various NES games on a special cartridge. Today, that cartridge has become incredibly valuable. The event was referenced in the 2014 sequel to NES Remix, where players could unlock a special Nintendo World Championships Remix by owning the original NES Remix. This allowed them to play three consecutive challenges in Super Mario Bros., Super Mario Bros. 3, and Dr. Mario.
Based on the ESRB description, it seems that this new game will be similar to NES Remix, possibly with a different name. The title structure also suggests that there may be future entries covering other Nintendo consoles if this game sells well.
The existence of Nintendo World Championships: NES Edition was hinted at by a trusted leaker and Twitter user, Pyoro_ X, who shared a picture of the Nintendo World Championships cartridge on Thursday. It's not common for a Nintendo game to leak in this way, so it's possible that this could be a surprise release or something that the company plans to announce in the near future.
