Clear World 1-1 as Mario, complete the dungeon as Link, best Meta Knight as Kirby, grab upgrades as Samus and even climb the wheel in the Excitebike. You may have done some (or all!) of these activities before, but do you have what it takes to do them better and faster than anyone else?
The Nintendo World Cup: NES Edition game for Nintendo Switch system brings you the excitement, spectacle and high stakes of a personal Nintendo World Cup in the past, at home or on the go. A new preview trailer tells more about what to expect from the game’s multiple modes and countless challenges.
Prove you have what it takes to become a champion as you tackle more than 150 speedrun challenges taken from 13 classic NES titles. Relive unforgettable moments in games like Super Mario Bros. 3, The Legend of Zelda, Donkey Kong, and Metroid, to name a few. Play solo, compete against the clear times of players from around the world, post your best time on the online leaderboard, or invite friends and family for local play with up to eight players on one system.
Don’t know where to start? Start small in Speedrun mode by seeing how fast you can catch the first mushroom in Super Mario Bros. or how fast you can swallow an enemy in a Kirby adventure. Then push your skills to the limit by racing against players’ ghost data online in Survival and World Championship modes, or with extremely difficult Legend challenges. Don’t worry: if you get stuck on the Legend Challenge, you can always check the included in-game confidential information for tips to help you improve!
