is a fun diversion and feels like an extended Remix challenge. is a flipped version of Super Mario Bros., with stages beginning on the right side of the screen and starring Luigi, whose jumps and physics are a little different than Mario's. In addition to the 12 games and Remix challenges, NES Remix 2 also features two supplementary modes. Individual challenges range from simple to thrilling our favourites were defeating Medusa in Kid Icarus and facing off against Dark Link in Zelda II: The Adventure of Link.

NES Remix 2 features less games than its predecessor, but its 12 titles are generally stronger and more varied. Be sure to check out our full NES Remix review. But on the whole, this is an addictive, fun experience. Legend of Zelda is simply a more compelling experience than Pinball or Urban Champion. The 'something's not quite right here' feeling adds to the allure and charm of the remixes, though admittedly some of the games used in NES Remix are better than others. One level may have Link (who can't jump) playing through a Donkey Kong stage another may feature an auto-running Mario that needs to be prompted to jump.

The big draw of NES Remix, though, is its 'Remix' stages, which feature altered versions of games and tough challenges. Completing each challenge also nets you Bits, which are collected for Miiverse stamps. Based on the amount of time it takes to complete a challenge you can earn up to three stars, with exemplary performance resulting in a shiny rainbow border. In Donkey Kong Jr., you may be tasked simply with dropping a fruit on an enemy. An early challenge for The Legend of Zelda, for example, is simply to take the sword from the old man. NES Remix takes 16 classic games from Nintendo's 8-bit heyday and breaks them up into self-contained, bite-sized challenges. We didn't expect NES Remix Pack to add more content to the already-robust titles, but it would have been nice to see the first entry polished a little to reflect the improvements of its somewhat slicker sequel. While both games are quite good, Nintendo has opted to simply package the two together and not made an attempt to make them feel like a cohesive whole. Nintendo's NES Remix Pack, a retail compilation of eShop titles NES Remix and NES Remix 2, contains two great games but feels like a bit of a missed opportunity.
