The Nintendo World Championships: NES Edition just received a new set of challenges today. Competition #21 is now live. This update calls on all Speedrunners to be at the ready and take on five new challenges.
As shared on Nintendo’s news page, Nintendo Switch Online members can take part in competition #21. This competition will only be live for a week until the 9th of December. The next competition will be uploaded thereafter.
Nintendo World Championships: NES Editions is a game that offers 150 challenges from 13 classic NES games. All of these challenges are speedrunning-based challenges that see you compete against players from around the world. But if you’d prefer to keep things local you can also compete with other players at home.
This Week’s Five Challenges:
- Super Mario Bros. 2: Sub-Space Exploration
- Super Mario Bros: Step It Up
- Zelda II: The Adventure of Link: No Bones About It
- Metroid: Elevator Blitz
- Super Mario Bros. 3: World 1 Wizard
If you competed in last week’s challenge – Competition #20, you can check out your place on the leaderboard. This is only against other players that are the same age as you. Nintendo has also made it possible to watch a video of the top run from each of the challenges.
If you’re late to the party you can pick up Nintendo World Championships: NES Edition for $30. If you’re curious about the game and would like to find out more about the development process and how its emulation works, then click here.
