Nintendo World Championships: NES™ Edition
Nintendo World Championships: NES™ Edition – Deluxe Set
This lets you pre-load the game, so you'll be able to play as soon as the game is released.
Bring the Nintendo World Championships to your living room!
Test your speedrunning skills across more than 150 challenging moments from 13 classic NES™ games*! Compete against players around the world online**, challenge your friends on the couch***, or try to see how far you can push your personal bests.
Do you have what it takes to be a champion? The tougher challenges may truly test your limits!
Put your skills to the test
With "byte-sized" challenges, you don't need to master entire games to feel like a Nintendo World Champion. And don’t worry if you’ve never played a millisecond of the original games—newcomers are welcome!
Select a challenge
Relive memorable moments with challenges across 13 classic NES games*. Start small by seeing how quickly you can blaze through the first level of the Super Mario Bros.™ game or how fast you can gobble up an enemy in the Kirby’s Adventure™ game.
See how it’s done
Before you get started, you can watch a video clip showing how to complete the challenge. Use this info as a guide for your own run.
Speedrun like the wind
Complete challenges to earn a letter ranking. If you play a challenge again, your previous best run will play side by side with your current run. See if you can set a new personal best!
Unlock more stuff
Complete challenges to earn in-game coins. Use them to unlock even more challenges to take on!
Compete against players around the world
Jump into the World Championship Mode with a Nintendo Switch Online membership**! Aim for a spot on the leaderboards in five challenges that rotate each week.
Compare your personal best times with others at the end of each week, or sit back and watch the fastest run for each challenge.
More ways to play
Aim for the top of your living-room podium with modes you can play with friends*** and on your own.
Challenge your friends
Up to 8 players*** can enjoy Party Mode—all on a single system! Take on individual challenges or run through a series of moments in themed Challenge packs. With an automatic rewind feature to undo mistakes, even completely new players can compete.
