Nintendo World Championship: NES Edition feels like Nintendo for the TikTok era
A quick look at Nintendo World Championship: NES Edition, which boils NES games down to a few seconds of fun.
Maybe it's all those years of playing WarioWare, but when Nintendo World Championship gives you something that will take you 30 seconds - say a jump challenge through a Metroid passageway - my attention starts to wander. Then there's a mode where you set times in specific challenges and wait to see how you fair against the rest of the world, when the results are announced. It's probably padding, coming at the end of a console's lifespan, but it's hard to get too grumpy about it when it's both so nicely packaged, like an 80s US game show that would have been broadcast in the middle of the night on a Friday back in the 90s, and so idiosyncratic.
