For those of you who missed it, Nintendo shared the Nintendo World Championships challenges for the final week of January. As we’ve covered in the past, the Nintendo World Championships: NES Edition receives weekly updates in the form of new challenges. These challenges are available for the remainder of the week.
As shown on Nintendo’s news page, those with an active Switch Online subscription can now participate in competition #29. As always with the World Championships competitions, Speedrunners have a week to complete this set of challenges. They’ll be live until the 3rd of February, and then the next set of challenges will be shared.
Nintendo World Championships: NES Edition 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.
