NES Remix is something greater than the sum of the 16 classic Nintendo games that provide its source material. With 204 carefully constructed challenges based on the likes of Super Mario Bros., The Legend of Zelda, Donkey Kong, Excitebike, and others, NES Remix is a frenzied, chaotic, and fun retro experience that's more enjoyable than simply replaying the straightforward ROMs of most these games on the Virtual Console.
In NES Remix's Achievement-like challenges, Remix deconstructs old Nintendo games -- some you probably know by heart -- and asks you to dominate small moments in them: challenges like searching for a secret entrance in The Legend of Zelda on a timer, Defeating Bowser with only fireballs in Super Mario Bros., or hitting a hole-in-one in Golf. In their original context, these actions make sense, and might even seem mundane, but in its frantic WarioWare-like "microgame" presentation, NES Remix offers a clever way to revisit old games. There's something about adding strict constraints that can make moments in a familiar game (or a crummy game) more fun.
