Ah, Nintendo and their little worlds of fun, right? So, there I was, minding my own business, and then bam! I discovered this Nintendo Music app. Who knew it had almost four decades of tunes ready to hit my ears? Yeah, only for those with the Switch Online service — guess that’s how they get ya!
So, it’s not just streaming. You can download your faves too, ’cause sometimes data sucks, and who wants to deal with buffering? I mean, whether you’re into Super Mario’s classic grooves, those sweeping Zelda melodies, or the… let’s say… quirky Splatoon 3 beats — they got you covered. You can search in all kinds of ways. Ever browsed by screenshot? Neither have I, but now I might.
Their library is kind of this ever-expanding universe. Like, imagine a universe where every game soundtrack you love just floats around, waiting for you. We’re talking updates with more tracks as time goes on. I’m rambling — what’s next?
Alright, rundown time! Let’s break down those nostalgic tunes console by console — it’s not elegant, but hey, let’s see where this takes us.
Nintendo Switch:
- Animal Crossing: New Horizons — cozy village vibes!
- Fire Emblem Engage — battles and beats, oh my.
- Kirby and the Forgotten Land, Star Allies — pink puffball jams.
- Mario Kart 8 Deluxe — race, race, race!
- Metroid Prime Remastered — space sounds, maybe?
- Pikmin 4… and the rest like Pokémon, Splatoon, and Mario Odyssey — a colorful chaos!
And yes, Zelda tracks make an entrance — like sunflowers in a field. Breath of the Wild’s score is just expansive, isn’t it?
Wii U:
A less traveled road, but hey, Zelda and Mario took that stroll.
3DS:
A scattering of Luigi’s Mansion, Mario Kart 7 — remember those funky driving tunes? And that Mii Plaza music — earworms, anyone?
Wii:
Galaxy sounds and sports themes — the Wiimote probably still haunting someone out there.
DS and Game Boy Advance:
Got those brain games and some knights in the mix.
Nintendo 64:
Whoa, flashbacks to days of F-Zero X and Lylat Wars. Ocarina of Time though? Timeless, in more ways than one.
Super NES, Game Boy, NES:
Classic drummers’ parade, from Donkey Kong jungles to that iconic Tetris twist.
And this horizon just keeps widening. I mean, you never know when they’re gonna drop another bunch of tunes in there. It’s like a surprise party for your ears — except you know it’s coming, just not when. Or maybe it’s more like waiting for toast to pop up? Who knows, I digress.
So, this Nintendo Music app’s out there, buzzing with playlists — and it’s free for those already hooked with the Switch service. They keep adding more tunes for more nostalgic trips. Anyway, maybe I’ll get lost in a Mario Kart remix later. Or Zelda — always Zelda.
