NES Remix 2 is a Nintendo eShop exclusive game released on the Wii U in early 2014. It is the sequel to NES Remix, this time focusing on games released later in the Nintendo Entertainment System's lifespan. Following the same formula as the first game, NES Remix 2 takes portions out of NES games and remixes them to provide new challenges for the player. The only Kirby game featured in NES Remix 2 is Kirby's Adventure, having 13 regular stages and its elements appearing in several of the "Remix I", "Remix II" and "Bonus" stages. As it's a compilation of NES Remix and NES Remix 2, NES Remix Pack, the fourth NES Remix game, features the exact same Kirby themed stages as NES Remix 2.
Ultimate NES Remix is the third NES Remix game released in late 2014 for the Nintendo 3DS. As the title implies, Ultimate NES Remix combines 16 games from both NES Remix and NES Remix 2 to create the "ultimate" NES Remix experience. Like in NES Remix 2, Kirby's Adventure is the only Kirby game featured, mostly having the same stages with minor changes only.

List of stages
Regular stages
In regular stages, the games are only modified to a small degree, mostly keeping true to the original games. Differences between NES Remix 2 and Ultimate NES Remix are only minor, like the in-game scores, the starting locations of Kirby, certain enemies sometimes having slight alterations, or the NES Remix 2 exclusive sightings of Pixel Luigi.
| Stage | Objective | Time/Life Limit | Notes | Game settings |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1-1 | Watch the Demo! | 300/N | The player is forced to watch a demo video showcasing Kirby's basic moveset. This stage is exclusive to NES Remix 2. The time limit does not decrease while in this section. | N/A |

| 3-1 | Use the Freeze ability and knock 5 enemies flying! | N/3 | Knocking an enemy "flying" requires Kirby to freeze them first, then touch the ice cube from any direction. Kirby is unable to drop the Freeze ability. Leaving the room will count as a miss. |

Remix & Bonus stages
The Remix I and Remix II stages are the main attractions of the NES Remix series. In these, the games are modified to provide a new experience. These "remixes" can range from changing the games' colors to restricting the controls or putting certain elements like characters into other games while keeping their original functions. In Bonus stages, there are both "regular" as well as "remix" stages—the regular ones often revolving around bonus content in the original games, like the Goal Game bonus in Kirby's Adventure. NES Remix 2 features 20 stages in both Remix I and Remix II and 22 Bonus stages, while Ultimate NES Remix features 25 stages in both Remix I and Remix II and 26 Bonus stages. Due to both games sharing some of these stages, the respective stage number can vary between them. There are some stages only featured in one of these games.
| Stage | Objective | Time/Life Limit | Remix and Notes | Game settings |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| NR2 Remix I 4 | Collect all the coins! | 60/3 | Kirby and the UI of Kirby's Adventure are put into a room using Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels assets. Kirby can break brick blocks with Air Bullets, Star Bullets, by inhaling, or dashing into them, or with fast falling. Interestingly, jumping into them doesn't work. The in-game score can't be increased. |
|
| NR2 Remix I 6 | Defeat Whispy Woods! | N/3 | At the left side of the screen, four Boos from Super Mario Bros. 3 appear. They behave in a similar way to the original game, coming closer when Kirby turns his back to them, though they don't aim straight for him, instead just flying to the right. They hover over the games' UI. Touching them will count as a miss. |
|
| NR2 Remix I 9 | Press A to open Kirby's mouth, and eat 20 eggs! | N/3 | In this version of Egg Catcher, the screen zooms in every time Kirby eats an egg. A miss, which can happen by either eating a bomb too early or not eating enough eggs before King Dedede stops throwing them, will return the zoom to normal before removing a life. | N/A |
| NR2 Remix I 11 | Defeat all the enemies! | N/3 | Toad from Super Mario Bros. 2 is placed in a one screen big area using Kirby's Adventure assets. He interacts with the world just like in his original game, being able to pick up and throw Star Blocks and enemies. His health points are not visible. |
|
| NR2 Remix I 13 | Use B to burn 6 enemies with the Fireball ability! | 30/3 | Exclusive to NES Remix 2. The bottom half of the screen sort of mirrors the top half while also being blurry and stretched out. Due to this, the HUD is missing. Kirby can only attack. | N/A |
| NR2 Remix I 17 | Kirby can't exhale! Get to the exit without being hit! | N/3 | A Game Boy style filter is put over the game. Due to an Energy Drink hidden in the stage, Kirby can get hit without causing a failure. In this version, the HUD is replaced with a sort of mirror reflecting what is directly above it. This section of the screen is whiter than the rest. | N/A |
| NR2 Remix I 20-3 | Hold and release A to pick up Kirby! | 30/6 | In this version of Crane Fever, the lights go out seconds after the timer starts, leaving the plushes as black silhouettes. It doesn't matter which of the two Kirbys is chosen. Despite the description, the game is only won if the Kirby is safely collected. | N/A |
| 20-5 | Run Kirby! Defeat 9 enemies! | 15/6 | Kirby is forced to run with no way of stopping. As such, he cannot hover, inhale, or turn around. Defeating enemies is only possible thanks to the Invincible Candy. The door at the end of the path also cannot be entered. In this version, the HUD is replaced with a sort of mirror reflecting what is directly above it. This section of the screen is whiter than the rest. | N/A |
| NR2 Remix II 20-4 | Run, invincible Kirby! Defeat 8 enemies! | 20/6 | Exclusive to NES Remix 2, Kirby is forced to run with no way of stopping. As such, he cannot fly, inhale, or turn around. Defeating enemies is only possible thanks to Kirby being invincible. The door at the end of the path also cannot be entered. The HUD is replaced with a sort of mirror reflecting what is directly above it. This section of the screen is whiter than the rest. | N/A |
| NR2 Bonus 10-4 | Defeat Nightmare's Power Orb! | 110/6 | Special Bullet Bills from Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels try to attack Kirby by flying in from the right. They are much larger than in their original game and feature a red glow unique to their appearance here. This likely references the King Bills introduced in New Super Mario Bros. Wii. Touching them results in an instant miss, regardless of how much health Kirby has left. |
|
| NR2 Bonus 18-1 | Jump to 7 and earn 0 points! | 300/N | This stage showcases the Goal Game bonus. Each stage also shows Kirby dancing when completed, while cutting away immediately for a miss. The timer stops when Kirby reaches the final platform. |

| ||
| R2 Bonus 18-3 | Jump to 5 and earn 300 points! |

| ||
| NR2 Bonus 20-2 | Defeat Mr. Shine and Mr. Bright! | N/6 |
| |
| NR2 Bonus 20-7 | Defeat Nightmare Wizard! | This is the final non 100% bonus stage of the game, technically making Nightmare the final boss of NES Remix 2. |
| |
| UNR Remix I 4 | Collect all the coins! | 60/3 | Kirby and the UI of Kirby's Adventure are put into a room using Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels assets. Kirby can break brick blocks with Air Bullets, Star Bullets, by inhaling, dashing into them, or with fast falling. Interestingly, jumping into them doesn't work. The in-game score can't be increased. |

They behave in a similar way to the original game, coming closer when Kirby turns his back to them, though they don't aim straight for him, instead just flying to the right.

|
| UNR Remix I 9 | Press A to open Kirby's mouth, and eat 20 eggs! | N/3 | In this version of Egg Catcher, the screen zooms in every time Kirby eats an egg.

He interacts with the world just like in his original game, being able to pick up and throw Star Blocks and enemies. His health points are not visible. |

Landing in the middle will not count. |
