Have you ever found yourself not quite feeling the love for your friends? Well, the latest Nintendo World Championships: NES Edition may not be the ideal game for settling any disputes through a fierce competition to achieve the best time on the first level of Super Mario Bros. Many players were left disappointed as they expected more from this release. The game focuses on speedrunning segments of various classic NES games through a series of challenges. One would think that leaderboards, showcasing players' recorded times, would play a significant role in the game. However, this does not seem to be the case.

The Nintendo World Championships: NES Edition does feature a leaderboard, but it appears to be a weekly world ranking. This means the leaderboard is only visible once the weekly event has concluded, preventing players from continuously striving to improve their times. This restriction eliminates the thrill of grinding for days to shave off milliseconds from your run and climb the leaderboard ranks to challenge your friends or family members. Essentially, you're left competing against yourself. No leaderboards for NES Nintendo World Championships is the most infuriating decision Nintendo has made for a game in years. It never even occurred to me that this was possible, but I should've remembered it's Nintendo. Please get your head out of your ass. — Grubb (@JeffGrubb) July 17, 2024 To view this content, please enable targeting cookies.

One player expressed disappointment, stating, "No leaderboards and friends' records in this type of game is a shame. I probably won't stick with this title for long. Nintendo Online Features are stuck in the 19th century." Some players have resorted to taking screenshots of their achievements to share with friends they are challenging, reminiscent of the old-fashioned practice of mailing photos to Nintendo Power magazine.
