NES - Nintendo World Championships Box Art

The Nintendo World Championships is a video game competition series, organized by Nintendo.

The competition launched in 1990, touring twenty-nine cities across the United States. It is based upon its namesake custom game cartridge for the Nintendo Entertainment System, considered to be the most valuable NES cartridge ever released and one of the rarest. On June 14, 2015, the second Nintendo World Championships event took place for its 25th anniversary as part of Nintendo's E3 2015 coverage.

Nintendo released 2014's NES Remix 2, featuring the reminiscent Nintendo World Championships Remix, which uses emulation and online leaderboards to incite informal public competitiveness.

Additional Information

Nintendo created this special cartridge, which contains modified versions of Super Mario Bros., Rad Racer and Tetris, for use in the 1990 Nintendo World Championships. The three games are played in order, and specific goals must be met in order to progress. In Super Mario Bros., the object is to collect 50 coins. In Rad Racer, you must complete the first level. In Tetris, the only goal is to earn the highest possible score. Gameplay for all three games is limited to a total of six minutes.

According to tsr's NES Archive, only 116 copies of the cartridge exist (90 given to competition finalists, and 26 to the winners of a Nintendo Power contest).
