The game, though, adds two modes to the game: ''[[NES Remix 2#Super Luigi Bros.|Super Luigi Bros.]]'', which challenges the player to beat a mirrored ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' by playing as [[Luigi]] and Championship Mode (inspired by a [[Nintendo World Championships 1990|rare competition game]]), which goal is to get the highest score while racing through ''Super Mario Bros.'', ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'' and ''[[Dr. Mario (game)|Dr. Mario]]''.
