It is the sequel to ''[[NES Remix]]''. Focusing on games released later in the [[Nintendo Entertainment System|NES]]'s lifespan than its predecessor, it follows the same formula by taking portions from classic NES games, including a few ''[[Super Mario (franchise)|Super Mario]]'' games, and "remixing" them to provide a new challenge to players. ''NES Remix 2'' was released with ''NES Remix'' as a physical compilation, ''[[NES Remix Pack]]''. ''NES Remix 2'' was later removed from the Wii U eShop after its discontinuation on March 27, 2023, making users no longer able to purchase the title. | ||
==Gameplay== | |||
Players must complete stages, split across one to eight challenges, based on excepted or "remixed" areas from various games, including some from the ''Super Mario'' franchise. In doing this, they can earn up to three stars per challenge, which unlock further games and stages with which to earn more stars. "Bits" are also awarded based on success, which unlock [[Miiverse]] stamps. Stars are awarded based on completion time; while a particularly quick time earns a further bonus, represented as the stars being outlined with an iridescent "rainbow" border and a larger bit award. Each stage gives a player one to eight lives to complete it - the player can continue mid-stage after a game over, but is capped at a maximum of one star if they do so and must complete it again in one set of lives to increase the award. | |||
The game offered Miiverse integration, allowing players to share their level clear times with others and add [[stamp]]s to their posts, but this was later discontinued with the closure of the Miiverse service on November 7, 2017. | |||
