The '''''NES Remix''''' series is a series which remixes various [[Nintendo Entertainment System|NES]] games and proposing challenges of very different nature, from defeating a certain number of [[List of enemies|enemies]] while [[Invincible Mario|invincible]] to playing ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' in reverse or with broken lights to playing ''[[Donkey Kong (game)|Donkey Kong]]'' as [[Link]]. Gameplay is comparable to the [[WarioWare (series)|''WarioWare'' series]]. The first two games were available only on the [[Nintendo eShop]] on [[Wii U]] and therefore are currently unable to be purchased, while the others are compilations that are available for physical purchase.

|'''''NES Remix''''' is the first instalment in the series. It comprises various challenges from sixteen games, with eight of the games relating to the [[Super Mario (franchise)|''Super Mario'' franchise]]. It was integrated with [[Miiverse]], where the player could write about their scores. [[Stamp]]s are also unlocked throughout the game, and they could also be used within Miiverse. The player can earn up to 3 stars in each challenge, depending on how well they performed, and they are used to unlock certain challenges. The player may also receive a {{conjectural|Rainbow Rank}} if they did very well, but this doesn't earn them another star and is simply for 100% completion.

|'''''NES Remix 2''''' is the second game in the series, with similar gameplay to its predecessor. It features challenges from twelve games, with six of the games being part of the ''Super Mario'' franchise. The Miiverse and Stamps systems returned, while the star and challenge system was slightly modified. The game, though, adds two modes: ''[[Super Luigi Bros.]]'', which challenges the player to beat a mirrored ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' by playing as [[Luigi]], and Championship Mode (inspired by a [[Nintendo World Championships 1990|rare competition game]]), where the goal is to get the highest score while racing through ''Super Mario Bros.'', ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', and ''[[Dr. Mario (game)|Dr. Mario]]''.
