Cool. Wish they woulda done a SNES or N64 version though.

Looks more fun than I thought it would be.

PSA: The Deluxe version is the physical copy coming in at $60 (Will be available at Best Buy, GameStop, Target and other retailers). Standard is digital only coming in at $30
LakSivrak
this feels like it should’ve been in the June direct?
spmahn
Didn’t they already do a game like this years ago on 3DS and WiiU?

So this straight up is just NES Remix 3.
sevenmoon
looks good BUT shoulda been a Nintendo online FREE thing for subsribers
retroanduwu24
I’m a sucker for that physical edition
Taedirk
“NES Edition” implying some implications there.
Cardboard_Waffle
The local multiplayer seems pretty cool.
ent_remove101
Honestly really cool! I loved NES Remix and the physical set is nice so i’ll get it for sure
MelloTrip
Hopefully I can grab the deluxe edition pre-order before it inevitably sells out. I’m in the UK, so hoping there is a chance.
cheesewombat
The amount of people in here confused that this isnt free with Switch Online.
Guys… NES Remix exists, it was also $30 and has probably less content than this. I’m sorry that things cost money but no one’s holding you at gunpoint to buy this.
FinalxxFlash
Now to hope they make enough physical copies of this and dont immediately sell out…i can hope
andresfgp13
this feels like the spiritual sequel to Ultimate Nes Remix for the Wii U/3DS, i was thinking about how much of a waste not having it on the switch was, nice to see that they are making another.
i will be playing it, and probably speedrunning it too.

Local multiplayer makes this worth it for me. Hopefully those physical editions aren’t super limited or anything. I’ll definitely be refreshing the best buy website all day today.
MarcsterS
Well now the June Direct might be a complete surprise then.
ThisOneTimeAtLolCamp
Oh that physical edition is sexy- aaaaand it’s gone.
Jared_The_Sir
The wording would suggest it’s not going to be the case, but I would definitely be considering the physical edition if the NES cartridge replica is actually playable on real hardware.
Edit: Whoop, just saw the disclaimer on one of the promotional materials that the replica “is not playable”. Looks like digital it is.

I really hope to get the deluxe edition, looks amazing
I knew I was expecting too much, but I really wanted this to be an official release of the NWC 1990 NES game where you can try your hand at the exact competition they had back in the day, complete with being able to change the time limit with the DIP switches.
Regardless, it looks like a fun time and appropriately priced! I’ll definitely pick it up digitally.

All power to those who are into it, but I just do not get the appeal at all.

Can’t wait to win the power glove! It’s soooo bad
ilove60sstuff
Ooo I need me that deluxe set. Hope it drops on Amazon
XPacEnergyDrink
Does this have online multiplayer?
No_Dig903
… That is a lot of money for half a megabyte.
Filraen
So basically a new iteration of NES Remix, looks fun.
Hopefully it has something like NES Remix 1 and 2’s online features where you could watch runs clearing the stages at higest rank (along with button inputs) to help completing the game.
Bay_Burner
Are all this little games about 20 seconds each?
MelancholyArtichoke
I think this is really cool and deserves to exist, but it also feels like a watered down NES Remix. I think if Ultimate NES Remix was included with this, it would be an instant buy for me.
CioncoSenpai99
Where is tetris ?
JusticiarXP
I wonder if it will have the full versions of the games as well or just the mini game challenges?
Nintendad47
So presumably Nintendo is going to have NSO games on Switch 2 why not include this as apart of the service then a standalone game?
Perhaps they still might like they did with the NES classic and SNES classic that turned into NSO
Must’ve been a fun commercial to film. Loved the joke about how no one knew who Jeff Hanson was.
Hope that this means Nintendo will bring back the live event at some point. Watching the 2017 event was fun.
diaperedwoman
I will probably rent it on Gamefly like I did with NES remix.
Have_A_Jelly_Baby
I just want Super Mario 35 back.
mastafishere
Damn, I go to lunch, come back, and of course preorders went up and aren’t live anymore. I’m sure there’ll be more throughout the day.

I hate everything about this. It’s like when you see a huge influencer/content creator making low-effort clickbait. This is vomit inducing.

Oooof that special edition looks amazing.
For those wanting to get the Deluxe Physical edition in the UK, [here’s a direct link which you can register your email with!](https://store.nintendo.co.uk/en/nintendo-world-championships-nes-edition) As for now it’s pre order by invitation only.
Does it give the full games or just challenges?
So why not included with NES online games?

That physically edition will be gone in seconds.
Can’t fucking wait.
Still doesn’t look as good as Mario 35.
All right! This is our time to shine!
Bestbuy preorder is live.
[Nintendo World Championships: NES Edition – Deluxe Set Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch – OLED Model, Nintendo Switch Lite – Best Buy](https://www.bestbuy.com/site/nintendo-world-championships-nes-edition-deluxe-set-nintendo-switch-nintendo-switch-oled-model-nintendo-switch-lite/6583885.p?cmp=RMX&skuId=6583885&nrtv_cid=5f8a93877d6267ba457cd4188a4f1316843be39a8bba9aa4ffe343621c74873a&utm_source=narrativ&ar=1841665739648771006&irgwc=1&ref=198&loc=Narrativ%20Campaign&acampID=0&mpid=3139288&affgroup=%22Content%22)
It’s up at bestbuy, it’s sold out at gamestop in America
I’m assuming this won’t be hard to get, but fyi it’s(the physical) [available at best buy](https://www.bestbuy.com/site/nintendo-world-championships-nes-edition-deluxe-set-nintendo-switch-nintendo-switch-oled-model-nintendo-switch-lite/6583885.p?skuId=6583885). No other site I saw has it available to actively purchase as of 12:25PM ET. I’m pretty pumped for this because it looks like an excellent pick up and play for 5-10 minutes game.
Must’ve been a fun commercial to film. Loved the joke about how no one knew who Jeff Hanson was.
Hope that this means Nintendo will bring back the live event at some point. Watching the 2017 event was fun.
