This seems to be a hit, so I think a SNES Remix is very likely. Maybe even a NES Remix 2 as well (or DLC).Looks really good and was one of my favorite things from the Direct. The sad thing is that it made me want a SNES Remix

I have still got Mario Kart 8 and NES Remix trending on mine, it's awesome.
WiiU only.
Hehe, well deserved, this game is pure fun.

Oh well, it's 2 AM here, need to stop playing x)

I paid good money for this Dynex!
Yeeaaaaahh, I resisted for about 8 hours. Fuck it. Buying this now.
Oh well, I'm sure they'll come out with something similar for the 3DS one day. I have a Wii U, I just can't/refuse to buy anything on it because of the account system, because it's a shared Wii U.
I would like to take this time to imagine some games they could use for SNES Remix:
- Super Mario World
- Link to the Past
- Super Metroid
- Super Mario Kart
- Pilotwings
- Kirby Super Star or Dream Land 3
- F-Zero
- Super Punch-Out
- Yoshi's Island
- Star Fox
- Donkey Kong Country (assuming they can, despite the games being removed from VC)

Wow, this is far better than I ever expected it to be. Hopefully Nintendo expands upon this further in DLC or addition "remix" games. Between this and Donkey Kong Crash Course in Nintendoland, I can safely say Nintendo definitely still has it when it comes to making addictive arcade gameplay.
I know the feeling, lol. If it were $10 as it's 10€, I wouldn't have even hesitated probably.
Yep, it really should have been 10 dollars.
I had 5 from the Nintendo Premium promotion, so it was a no brainer for me.

Same for me. But I thought about it and realized I could pout over $5, or just suck it up and enjoy the game. Hopefully, I actually will enjoy it once it's done downloading.
Son of a bitch! I didn't know this either!
In other news I smoked the Mario running level. Rainbow star'd it even yeah son.
Pretty positive it's a toned down NTSC filter they applied, but it has been a while since I checked out NES VC on WiiU.
Also, I noticed in the GGCX episode that the engine exploit in SMB where so long as Mario is falling enemies will be killed from below is present. It happens on the cheep-cheep Remix stage here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ksHBwKtMAxs#t=1277
So yeah, 99% chance it's some fancy OBJ/BG layer based emulation, that's not something that would make it through a porting process without source code involved.

I adore this. It's the best parts of GameCenter CX and WarioWare's 9Volt stages.
Plus more stamps!
Happiest I've been with an eshop purchase in ages.

Come on guys lets get "NES Remix" trending even higher.
Mario Kart 8 is trending for USA.
Nintendo only if you could have gotten out Kart globally for xmas, only if.
Groovy!
I am really liking this so far! My only complaints are that some of these games probably should not have been included (did anyone really want to see Golf or Urban Champion again) and the Link in Donkey Kong missions are the only crossover I've seen so far, was expecting more considering it's what they opened with in the Direct. Other than that though it's great, hopefully we see a SNES Remix down the road sometime.
I am guessing that each stage is rom coupled with a save state and then memory locations that the emulator watches for the game to jump to or modify to determine the win lose conditions. Having the original ASM sources probably helps in identifying the right locations to watch. Kind of like the NES emulator that supports lua scripting.
They can definitely hook into the GPU emulation to add effects like drop shadows between layers since those are explicit hardware concepts.
I am guessing that this started as a side project of whoever at nintendo was tasked with the virtual console emulators.

So Wii Remotes aren't supported? That kinda sucks since it's just like a NES controller.
I went and bought this about a hour ago, and I'm loving it so far. Just the type of mini game I want to play after a long day's work. I wish it was on the 3DS too because these micro-games would work great on a handheld.
BTW, I also made a review thread for NES remix, lol at only two reviews so far, and nobody giving it a score yet. Seems like Nintendo didn't bother to pre-screen it for anybody.

Gotta say, I'm really liking this game. A lot of the games are pretty much perfect for this. I don't have any particular interest in sitting down and playing some of the simpler games, like Balloon Fight or Donkey Kong, but throwing those into this sort of challenge style setup makes them a hell of a lot more compelling. I sat there for two hours just plugging away at those games, despite that apathy for the originals.
Things seem to unlock at the perfect rate, too -- you constantly feel rewarded for doing stuff. So, it seems like a really solid game so far. And I love the fact that it was a surprise up until the ND announcement. Honestly, these are the sorts of things I want to see from Nintendo on the eShop: something that's fun, addictive, and that you can just jump into and enjoy immediately.

No. These people are in the beta.
