Grandes retos divertidos y formas "faciles de ser un Spedrun" muy divertido. Aunque me gustaría que los retos se actualizaran más seguido 🤔

I recently played some of the games from the Nintendo World Championships: NES Edition. It was a fun trip down memory lane. Some of the games were worse than I remembered, while others are all-time greats. The challenges vary in quality. This compilation is not a must-own by any means, but the collector's edition has some stellar collectibles.

I honestly think this game is pretty lazy. I'll get the good out of the way: it's fun to improve and get better completion times. That's about it. The value of the game is really dependent on how much you are fueled by the intrinsic desire to get better. Content-wise, it's very bare. I will say that I still had a lot of fun with the game, but I wouldn't really consider it a good game. Here's a list of things I think would have made me enjoy the game more. (1) Having online multiplayer. The 8 player multiplayer is a cool concept, but I don't really have friends that I can consistently invite over to play games with anymore and even among my gamer friends, it's pretty hard to find any that enjoy playing retro games. Also, it's hard to convince people to play with me when they don't even think they have a chance of beating me, so I didn't even get a chance to try it. Would've been cool to try with friends over the internet. Racing against other players in survival mode would have been cool too rather than racing against ghosts. (2) Having online leaderboards. I think trying to climb leaderboards would incentivize me to get better to see what is even possible to achieve. The whole point is to try to get the best time and comparing my times to what other people get sounds natural to me. (3) Showing rank thresholds. I'm pretty much just repeating challenges over and over until I get an S rank. Would have been convenient to know what I was aiming for. This is extra annoying when ranks are S, A++, A+, A, etc. (4) Getting rid of Championship mode entirely and just putting the focus on Speedrun mode. I don't like how Championship mode is limited to 5 challenges for an entire week. You only see how well you did after it ends. If I knew my position before the end, then I'd probably spend more time trying to improve my rank. I think if they just implemented an online leaderboard that is persistent, it'd be easier to stay invested in each of the challenges. (5) More interaction with my friends. There really isn't anything you can do with your friend list as far as I can tell outside of just talking to them and asking about it. You would think the game would at least let you compare your times with your friend list, but it doesn't even do that. (6) Having the full games available. I just think this would make the content feel less lacking. (7) Allowing us to enable/disable the startup timer. A LOT of the game is waiting for the 3 second timer to countdown everytime you attempt a run. This is especially annoying when attempting challenges that take less than 3 seconds and you end up doing more waiting than playing. I honestly kind of wish they just redid NES remix because at least that was unique and different. This is just NES games that are cut-up and packaged together, without being able to experience any of them in their entirety. Essentially a glorified "Masterpieces" mode from Super Smash Bros Brawl. I got all S ranks in the Speedrun mode and collected all of the pins. I don't plan on collecting all of the icons because I don't think that farming coins sounds fun to me.
