Feature: What We Want to See in SNES Remix

I thought Kirby Super Star would have been obvious. The Gourmet Race was practically made for this type of thing. Wait... Is this a joke?!

What i'd really love to see is an N64 Remix. Doubt it'll ever happen cause it'd require more than a week to make, which means it wouldnt be a quick cash in like the NES ones, but i can dream. Its about as likely as Nintendo putting Gamecube games on VC.

I want games I haven't played to death in something like this.

Pilotwings / Super Soccer / Wrecking Crew '98 / Kirby's Avalanche / Yoshi's Safari / Mario Paint / Super Scope games.

Vegas Stakes... why?

Now that it's actually on the Virtual Console, it's gotta be EarthBound.

"Take $64 from the ATM and buy a new bat!"
"Order a pizza!"
"Defeat the Kraken!"

Super Mario RPG would be pretty cool too.

vegas stakes , ugh? u guys must be kidding lol i dont wanna play card game in snes remix pls god roflmao. i wanna see The Lost Viking II or rock n roll racing . i wish blizzard release those game on WII U VC soon cause they are both AWESOME.

Following the example of NES remix the games will have to be on the Wii U vc to be able to increase sales of the VC title. Urban Champion in Remix for example. Do people not even read a story before commenting? Swear word!

@SetupDisk I agree, they won't get out an SNES version until they actually have enough 1st party SNES VC releases. This could take years.

I'd love to see a snes remix and a N64 remix!

Just release the remix already. Day one purchase!

We won't see DKC, not while the trilogy's not on the Wii U VC and it got taken off the Wii one...

How are you gonna beat Bob Charlie by dancing? These remix games break some rules, but they don't swap genres. I also don't see
Mario Super Picross as that one is not popular enough, being localized so recently and not even making it to the US.

I loved the first NES Remix and I am really looking forward to the next one. SNES Remix would really take a while.

Anything with anything Super Metroid is automatically awesome.

Obviously there are some ownership issues with games made by Rare.....would this be a way to get around some of those issues?

@bizcuthammer I already doubt a SNES Remix. NES games are terribly simple to remake, SNES games have Mode 7, and occasionally Super FX.

As soon as I saw the announcement of NES Remix 2, I felt that this "remix" series could be the WiiU's savior.

I REALLY hope Nintendo will make the additional challenges and games available as DLC to the original NES Remix so we can have them all in one place, one icon, one game, like they did for New Super Luigi Bros U within NSMBU, since I already bought the first and feel it would only benefit from being totally integrated with future updates.

A Mario flappy bird game? Easy decision to say the least

@Gerbwmu There is a Warioware one that is sort of the same. (Looks to be done deliberately as badly as possible which makes it fun).

Nes remix 2 should definitely be dlc and not a separate game. I must add that I do love the first one.

@CrabGats Warioware has had SNES and newer games in it. They might need to use a different method though.

@unrandomsam WarioWare had five second minigames that could be replicated easily to mimic the game, it didn't have to be the whole thing. NES Remix developers obviously rebuild the entire game from scratch, since NES Remix relies solely on the games themselves for their timed minigames. It saves them time to rebuild the entire game, especially with the Remix minigames, but that's the thing, they'd have to rebuild the engines for these huge SNES games (Starfox comes to mind as the one to give the most trouble), which doesn't seem like it'd be worth their time, considering the time they'd have to put into it. They're an independent studio, unlike the creators of WarioWare.

I like the list, but as always, I'd like to see more games that have not been released on Wii VC. That said, I'm surprised Earthbound didn't make your cut .

@CrabGats Warioware has a pretty long Starfox based boss (Think it is the Wii version). Probably depends whether they can get the essence of the games just using the sprites.

@unrandomsam Again, NES Remix has a small independent studio working on it, WarioWare had a big studio working inside Nintendo making it. Not to mention the Starfox boss in Smooth Moves is obviously sloppily put together. It works for what it is, but it is not faithful to the original visually whatsoever. The appeal of NES Remix is that it feels authentic, legitimate.

When/where was starfox (SNES) released on virtual console?

@CrabGats Again if they are good they could do it. If they are not then they are not worth bothering with.

@unrandomsam That's the thing, I doubt it would be worth their time and money. You have to realize how easily an NES game is replicated due to how simple it is, SNES uses much larger, more detailed sprites and backgrounds in it's game, as well as more complicated and precise physics, especially in stuff like Pilotwings and Starfox, which navigate in a 3D enviroment.

If you want to play F-Zero with the controls reversed try holding the controller upside down!

It's stuff like this that makes me come back to NL everyday.

Just NAILED it with the picks for SNES Remix. Absolutely nailed it....

SNES Remix is insta-buy for me. This must happen.

@Rafie

Pretty sure they will, but in due time of course. We still have NES Remix Vol 2 coming in April. Given that release basically starts up the engine for regular Wii U releases this year, I'm not ruling out the possibility of seeing a SNES Remix before the year is over. But even if it's not until next year, that's ok too. As long as it comes at some point.

Personally, I think they should do this for every system as they work their way through the VC releases. For example, they're wrapping up NES and we're seeing 2 volumes of NES Remix. Whenever they get all the SNES games on VC, they could release 2 Volumes of SNES Remix. Same for N64. All in due time of course

But (and I'm hesitant even to utter these words), what if, and this is a big if, but bear with me... what if, before the end of this generation, we saw a Gamecube Remix. Think about that.

stunt race fx and mario paint, what about these?

Would be cool for SMRPG stuff, like Beetlemania, or jump records.

@JaxonH There's still the Final Fantasy games and the original Contra to be released. The Wii U is also missing some of the NES games that have been released on the 3DS VC, such as Summer Carnival '92 RECCA.

I would love an SNES Remix after NES Remix 2 is finished. I'd also like to see a Game Boy Remix for 3DS (which can also include GBC titles) and a Nintendo 64 Remix for Wii U after SNES Remix is made. I don't want to rush Nintendo, though.

Wouldn't mind a GameBoy Remix at some point on the 3DS. Also, since the first NES Remix was used to increase sales of the VC games, does that mean North America is getting Super Mario Bros 3 at some point before April 25th when NES Remix 2 comes out?

Super Mario World. Some of the original Zelda's stages in NES Remix 1 were barely challenges at all. I hope Zelda II doesn't suffer the same fate.

@StephenYap3 It'd be somewhat difficult to make Zelda II challenges easy . That Super Mario Bros The Lost Levels remix stage with Link in it looks interesting.

@IceClimbers

What I mean is that some of the NES Remix stages in Zelda 1 weren't "literally" challenges. They were just merely the simplest of tasks that shouldn't be considered being in NES Remix at all, such as "Collect enough Rupees and buy an item", which depends on luck as enemies randomly drop Rupees than skill. I was expecting something like "Kill 5 Keese with only the Boomerang" or "Kill 5 Wallmasters without getting grabbed by one of them". Now, I don't hate Zelda 1's stages in NES Remix in general, I just hate some of those challenges that don't involve skill.

...and Zelda II Link is playable in The Lost Levels of NES Remix II!? I'M IN!!

That's just what us! Nintendo fans need, is another reminder of how good nintendo used to be!

I've been a fan for 20+ years but I would like something new

Forget the remixes and do collections starting with N64 then DS then Dreamcast and so on . Even with remixes I feel like I'm buying games that I already have . Why don't you remix your VC nintendo .

@StephenYap3 I think the point of that particular stage was to get you to use the bomb on one of the secret spots where you get Rupees rather than from enemies. I do get your point though.

I would buy a snes remix instantly the snes is my favourite console ever

No super mario rpg, earthbound, or chrono trigger? Certainly you could mix those 3.

@2Sang SNES Remix 2

Geno for Smash.

Imagine if they include all the levels in the Donkey Kong Country Competition cart in the SNES remix and you had to beat them in under 5 minutes. That would truly be a challenge to me, then we can record our highest score, send it to Nintendo, earn some Nintendo Club points and used them to purchase the real game on Wii U VC.

Sadly, thanks to Rare, Donkey Kong Country isn't gonna happen.

Why is everyone having faith about this coming really soon from Nintendo? They are probably not into making SNES remix at all and we don't even know whether Nintendo is planning it or not.

Super Mario Kart: Send a Red shell into orbit around a dormant P2 in battle mode

Remix stage: Samus vs Bowser in the final battle of Super Mario World

That Super Mario World challenge isn't a dream, it's a nightmare brought to us already by many a Japanese ROM hacker!

Even if this game did get made, would it have any Donkey Kong Country content in it? There seems to be no explanation from Nintendo as to why the DKC trilogy were silently removed from the Wii Virtual Console...whatever Nintendo say about having 100% the rights to it (as opposed to some sort of co-ownership with Rare), why would they do that? And why did Donkey Kong 64 never appear on VC?

Starfox did not see a release on Wii Virtual Console despite what the article says.

Those 17% ties lol

Since the poll vote was to choose ONLY one Super Nintendo Entertainment System game, I chose Super Mario World, only because Super Mario All - Stars + Super Mario World was the first game my brother got, so it was the first game I played.

Personally, My Super Nintendo Entertainment System Remix would have to be:

Super Mario All - Stars + Super Mario World

Super Mario Kart

The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past

Super Street Fighter II: The New Challengers

Mortal Kombat

Mortal Kombat II

Killer Instinct

James Pond`s Crazy Sports

Alien 3

Donkey Kong Country

Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy`s Kong Quest

Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong`s Double Trouble

of course I would add more titles but maybe 12 will be released. If and when there will be a SNES Remix (which will be likely indeed). There are so many wonderful possibilities.

I hope Nintendo re-release Super Mario World 2: Yoshi`s Island.

The whole list pretty much nailed it, but STAR FOX! STAR FOX! STAR FOX!

If the word cash-in never hand any meaning... looks at NES Remix and such.

Bart's Nightmare would be a good one for the remix treatment, the individual bits of the games were good but the whole thing never tied together well. Breaking it up into mini games would make it play a lot nicer

Star fox because it would be the only way we get to play star fox on wii

It would be epic if Sega, Sony and SNK would create a "Remix" title for their greatest titles of past systems. As I have said before there are so many wonderful possibilities.

@TruenoGT Also Super Mario World 2: Yoshi`s Island needs to be re-released, as well as Stunt Race FX, and don`t forget that not only could Nintendo have released Star Fox on the Nintendo Wii Virtual Console but, Nintendo`s perfect opportunity to release Star Fox 2 was when the service began.

This is my list I have thought up for SNES Remix 2.

2 more fighting games, 5 more racing games and five more RPG to balance these hugely three hugely popular genres out:

Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3

Weapon Lord

F-Zero

F-Zero BS

F-Zero BS 2

Street Racer

Stunt Race FX

Earthbound

Terranigma

Secret of Evermore

Chrono Trigger

Final Fantasy

Who has a slightly different list?

Lol @ People asking for a N64 Remix. Problem is the system has a handful of good games. Hope you like 2nd rate sport games if they do N64 remix.

@Jowy There's plenty of good N64 games to choose from, just the problem is it would mostly be Mario games.

I am here to defend Vega's Stakes's honor. That's a HAL Laboratory game, folks, presided over by Mr. Iwata. The man gets what he wants. And it's the most fun casino game I've ever played.

Doubt this will ever happen, but otherwise I'd have to say DKC.

Too many Mode7/Super FX games on this list. It's probably because I never grew up with a Super NES, but I can never play those games that are supposed to be 3D when the ground is a flat plane. It doesn't give you enough to help you perceive depth. Star Fox at least had buildings, but Pilotwings and F-ZERO are the bane of my existence.

@TruenoGT Starwing I also own it, I do not own Stunt Race FX or the original version of Super Mario World 2: Yoshi`s Island, although I have the Nintendo Game Boy Advance port, the Nintendo Wii U Virtual Console service has so much untapped potential.

I want to see that if you get all the rainbow stars in any series challenges (for example, Star Fox), then you can go to the eShop and buy the Virtual Console game with a discount.

I'd really like a big 16-bit remix with 16 SNES and 16 Genesis games split down the middle each with "console war" style challenges that cross-over into the other system's games. Like imagine a Sonic challenge where you have to run over Mario in a spindash, or a Shinobi 3 challenge where the boss transforms into an Arwing.

A 16-bit Remix like that would be awesome.

Mr. Hayashida has done a great work on NES REMIX. NES REMIX 2, looks much better with all the real remixes shown on this last Nintendo Direct (like Samus destroying bricks on a Mario Stage, or Link fighting in Bowser's Castle). So I think it's very likely they would develop SNES Remix.

I think most of Nintendo true fans (including myself) where mostly enchanted by Nintendo games on the SNES era. So, Nintendo needs to make this happen.

@bizcuthammer that's ACTUALLY more L-I-K-E-L-Y to happen now due to the Nintendo Switch, and the rumors of Gamecube games coming to the Nintendo Switch VC; and the Fact there's EVEN LESS Backwards compatability than with the Wii U

@James1993
My List includes:
Earthbound
Super Mario All-stars
Chrono Trigger
Super Mario RPG(Schyea Right, LIKE T-H-A-T will ever Happen, DUE TO SQUARE ENIX Holding the Rights and demanding WAY MORE than Nintendo is willing to give for it)
Star Fox
Donkey Kong Country trilogy
Super Mario Kart
Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island
Super Metroid
A Link to the Past
Kirby Super Star
Kirby's Dream Land 3
