Ultimate NES Remix is a "best of" compilation of theNES Remix series and is the only installment of the series available on a handheld, specifically for theNintendo 3DS. The game was announced on August 29, 2014, and it was released in late 2014 in Europe, Oceania, the United States, and Canada and Summer 2015 in Japan, Hong Kong, and Taiwan. UnlikeNES Remix Pack for theWii U, which contains everything found inNES Remix andNES Remix 2,Ultimate NES Remix contains only challenges from 16 games pulled from both games along with two new game modes and a returning mode fromNES Remix 2. Due to hardware limitations of the Nintendo 3DS,stamp-collecting has been removed.

Players who ordered the game by December 5 received a download code for a limited-editionFamicom-style 3DS theme. Unlike most 3DS games,Ultimate NES Remix supports only 2D display, making this game the first one invoking theSuper Mario franchise in a major capacity released on the Nintendo 3DS to be playable only in 2D.

Gameplay[edit]

Games[edit]

The challenges are almost the same as its predecessors. There are a few differences such as wording for the instructions. The players are also able to see regional rankings for game stages.

The Remix I, Remix II, and Bonus stages from both games have been merged to accommodate for titles that were excluded from this compilation. These are the stages related to theSuper Mario franchise:

*Challenge 3 in Bonus Stage 27 is new. With this inclusion, Bonus Stage 27 has 45 challenges.

Speed Mario Bros.[edit]

Just likeNES Remix 2,Ultimate NES Remix contains a port ofSuper Mario Bros. It is namedSpeed Mario Bros. It is almost identical to the original, except that it runs at twice the speed and there is no 2 Player mode.

Championship Mode[edit]

Ultimate NES Remix includes theNES Remix 2 modeChampionship Mode. The player faces three challenges, and the goal is to get as many points as possible. The first challenge is to collect 50 coins inSuper Mario Bros., the second challenge is to collect 25 coins inSuper Mario Bros. 3, and any remaining time is used to score as many points as possible inDr. Mario.

Famicom Remix Mode[edit]

It includes challenges from the Japanese version of the game, some of which use different sound effects.^{[10][dead link]} Conversely, in the Japanese version, the North American version can be played as a special mode when earning three stars in every stage in the main mode.
