I desperately want them to add tracks from Super Mario bros 2

Nintendo has been taking down music for some years now, and now it wants to release a music service. They should had done this a long time ago.

The last thing i'm worried about being spoiled about is a video games soundtrack.

Wow, this has made my day! Their games have some of the best music!

This is the type of thing that 5 years from now will be trivia.

"Did you know? For just over 3 months, Nintendo Online allowed it's users to stream music? It's true! Starting in late October, and continueing into January 2025, you could listen to dozens of Nintendo music. Then Nintendo disconinued the service for.....no reason."

I agree, but with a much longer time window.

5 years from now the headline will be "Nintendo sunsetting music service" with the top comment being "What service?".

The apps are already built and will require very little maintenance. Since it's a "value add" it doesn't need many users to convince Nintendo to keep it turned on.

Ok, I mean you make logical sense, buuuuut.....Mario 35.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 13 hours ago

Lol, you're right. I forgot Nintendo be Nintendo. You might be right.

[–] [email protected] 33 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

It even has the Wii Channels music!

[–] [email protected] 11 points 15 hours ago

no. fucking. way. what a good Wednesday.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

There doesn't seem to be a whole lot of their game music library on it. ToTK isn't even on there.

[–] [email protected] 17 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

It’s like 8 total games. They are probably going for their stupid drip release strategy.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 9 hours ago

Well, at least drip release means that I can rip the music on a set schedule to distribute to more people/place in other repositories.

Fuck Nintendo for having their legendary composers make some of the most iconic music in gaming and then making them practically unlistenable in a legal manner.

For example: why the fuck is the legal distribution of the Cadence of Hyrule soundtrack limited to 25 vinyl presses given to Twitter winners, and NOTHING ELSE???????

Hmm adding their music to streaming services would be better, so i could do playlist of game music from nintendo, square enix and so on. But i guess better than nothing. Waiting for a lot more Fire Emblem Soundtrack

[–] [email protected] 6 points 12 hours ago

The lack of official soundtracks in Spotify are the mean reason I use YT music for that.

I'd be down for this if they add a looping feature, since it's all gonna be VGM anyway. e.g. maybe I like 7 minutes of the Brinstar theme but only 2 minutes of New Donk City or something.Maybe tap a button to "queue" up more loops. I hope they go crazy with it.
