Last year, Nintendo released a quirky mix of NES games with unusual challenges called NES Remix, followed merely five months later by a sequel. The original game takes bits and pieces from the best of Nintendo’s early releases, from The Legend of Zelda to Super Mario Bros. to Donkey Kong, and mashes them together to create a unique and challenging, albeit odd, entry for the virtual console. For those in Europe who have yet to download this quirky title, Nintendo has just sweetened the deal.

Starting today, owners of either NES Remix 1 or NES Remix 2 can get some of the original NES games from these titles via the Nintendo eShop’s virtual console at 50% off the regular price. This, of course, includes the original Legend of Zelda, providing a fantastic opportunity for those who haven’t played the game that started it all. And if you don’t own it already, NES Remix will provide you with a nearly as great opportunity to play as Link in Donkey Kong.

Any takers? Or is it going to take a bit more for you to try out these games? Better act fast, because this deal ends a week from today. Let us know what you think of this promotion below!
