Current Event: Nintendo World Championships: NES Edition is ongoing as competition number 26
The much-anticipated Nintendo World Championships: NES Edition Competition #26 is now live on the Nintendo Switch platform, available exclusively to Nintendo Switch Online members until 1st January 2023 at 12:59 a.m. PT.
This timed challenge mode offers a thrilling opportunity for players to compete against one another online, aiming to secure top leaderboard rankings by completing a series of five rotating classic NES game challenges each week.
To participate, players will need a Nintendo Switch Online membership, which can be purchased separately. With a membership, they can access the competition mode and enjoy other online features such as multiplayer gaming. A Nintendo Account is also required.
The competition format includes five distinct NES mini-challenges or game segments that rotate weekly, testing different skills and game titles. Players will compete to achieve the highest score or fastest completion time to secure a spot on the online leaderboards dedicated to the competition.
The competition involves classic NES gameplay tasks, often within strict time limits or specific objectives that echo the original Nintendo World Championships cartridge events from the 1990s. However, there have been reports of cheating issues in community videos, highlighting the importance of fair play and skill for participants.
For this specific competition, the challenges featured include Step It Up (Super Mario Bros.), Don't Go Alone (The Legend of Zelda), Coconut Rush (Kirby's Adventure), Egg Toss (Super Mario Bros. 2), and Rotary Rush (Super Mario Bros. 3). Replays of the top runs for each challenge from last week's competition are available to watch, providing valuable insights for improving participants' own times.
Local multiplayer mode is also available, and additional accessories may be required for multiplayer mode (sold separately). It's important to note that NES games are not included in their entirety, and the competition is not available in all countries.
Participants can check their overall placement and birth year ranking in last week's competition, strive to improve their personal bests, and even test their limits due to the tough challenges.
Moreover, the Nintendo World Championships: NES Edition offers more than 150 challenging moments from 13 NES games. The competition is part of the Nintendo World Championships: NES Edition game.
