* FlipFlopOfGod: When asked about making ''NES Remix'' available on the UsefulNotes/Nintendo3DS, director Koichi Hayashida [[http://www.gamespot.com/articles/nes-remix-went-to-wii-u-because-it-needed-more-power-than-3ds-offers/1100-6419119/ mentioned]] the UsefulNotes/WiiU's system power and how that factored into allowing Nintendo to more easily create the games it wanted that the 3DS's power couldn't provide. It turns out the 3DS got a version of ''NES Remix'' called ''Ultimate NES Remix'' which contained the best challenges and features of the two ''NES Remix'' games!
* SimilarlyNamedWorks: The games share the name of a song in ''VideoGame/WarioWare: Twisted!''
* SurpriseRelease: The first game was announced during the Nintendo Direct on December 18, 2013 and released that same day for the Wii U.
* WhyFandomCantHaveNiceThings: Thanks to exploiters that exploited a GameBreaker to speedrun a ''VideoGame/MarioBros'' remix challenge, the first ''NES Remix'' Miiverse contest [[http://www.gonintendo.com/?mode=viewstory&id=219887 was cancelled]] which caused worry that Nintendo wouldn't hold any more events for ''NES Remix'' on Miiverse. Thankfully, this ended up not being the case -- more challenges were in fact held, but with the added option to let players report those that were cheating in these challenges to Nintendo.
