NES Remix[b] is a compilation video game series developed and published by Nintendo for the Wii U. The first and eponymous game was simultaneously announced and released on December 18, 2013, on the Nintendo eShop following a Nintendo Direct presentation. A second game, NES Remix 2,[c] was released on April 25, 2014. A retail edition consisting of both games, titled NES Remix Pack,[d] was released on April 24, 2014, in Japan[2] and December 5 in North America. Another title, Ultimate NES Remix[e] for Nintendo 3DS, was released on November 7–8, 2014 in Europe and Australia, December 5 in North America and August 27, 2015, in Japan.[3]

The first game in the series, NES Remix, is composed of 16 vintage Nintendo Entertainment System games with a total of 204 challenges throughout; the second game, NES Remix 2, features 12 additional NES games with a further 169 challenges. Mostly composed of vintage excerpts from games, these compilations also present special categories of stages called remixes to additionally concoct unique challenges not possible in the original games. The purchase of both NES Remix and NES Remix 2 unlocks Championship Mode in the latter, sporting an online leaderboards system.
