So, I've been trying to 100% NES Remix on stream for the past few days. This game has absolutely BROKEN me, and I've given probably 12+ hours to it already or so. I've unlocked the final stage, where you've gotta collect 44 power-ups (mainly mushrooms) in Super Mario Bros. without failing more than six times. 95% of the stages are easy-ish, aside from stages 22, 42, 43, and 44. Anyone got any tips for those? The last two absolutely suck because of the Hammer Bro placements (of course they both take place in 8-3, why WOULDN'T they), so I was wondering if anybody here had any tips for beating those. For stage 22, I'm just looking for a more consistent way to beat it that doesn't involve a literal leap of faith cross the gap, and I'd also appreciate any tricks to consistently get the jump on stage 42, as that ricocheting Koopa Shell has led to my death many times. Thanks!

I cannot wait to escape this game, oh my god.
 
i still remember the nintendo.ca pages. anyways is the game good?
 
It's fine as a novelty, but oh my god it absolutely sucks to 100%.
 
what's with it?
Well, it has challenges based on some of the worst Nintendo games - looking at you, Clu Clu Land - and expects you to get three stars in every single one. Additionally, the final level is collecting a power-up in a SMB1 level 44 times while making a maximum of six mistakes. Additionally, even after all that, it'd take around 17 hours to get all the remaining bits to get the rest of the stamps.
To put that in perspective, there are really only five stamps left by the end of the game.

I don't know. I personally rank it worse than Lost Levels. Heck, there's also a challenge where you have to beat every single Bowser (up to, like, world 6 or something) using exclusively a Fire Flower. Meaning fully damageless, making zero mistakes.
