These challenges will once again run from now until 6th January 2025 - so join in on the fun while you can.

If you haven't already played this game, it's well worth a look if you're a fan of Nintendo's classic offerings. Here's a bit about what we had to say in our review:

"A bunch of stone-cold classic Nintendo games cut into iconic sections for you to blaze through and then rinse and repeat until you've eked every last nanosecond out of the thing. A party night staple? We reckon so"
