Forget Apple Music & Spotify, Nintendo Has Announced Its Own Paid Music App

Nintendon’t listen to music anywhere else or you might get sued

Nintendo has launched a music-streaming app called Nintendo Music that lets you listen to some of the most iconic tunes from Nintendo games from the newest titles to the oldest classics. The app is available on both iOS and Android, but you will only be able to use it if you are already subscribed to Nintendo Switch Online.

In Nintendoโ€™s world, Spotify, YouTube, Apple Music, and the like, seemingly donโ€™t exist. Why the Japanese developer has made its own music app is a complete mystery to fans online. Especially because it is quite similar to something like Spotify, you can search for games instead of albums, platforms instead of artists, and characters instead of singers. Of course, the expected ability to create playlists is available, but it isnโ€™t very clear how you can share these with others.

A really unique feature is the ability to avoid spoilers by letting the app know that you donโ€™t want to listen to any music that you have yet to experience in a game. As for what kind of music the app has, you can check out the complete list below:

The OSTs Available On Nintendo Music App At Launch

Nintendo Switch

  • Animal Crossing: New Horizons
  • Kirby Star Allies
  • Mario Kart 8 Deluxe
  • Pikmin 4
  • Pokรฉmon Scarlet and Violet
  • Splatoon 3
  • Super Mario Odyssey
  • The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild

Wii

  • Super Mario Galaxy
  • Wii Channels

Nintendo DS

  • Nintendogs
  • Tomodachi Collection

Nintendo GameCube

  • Metroid Prime

Game Boy Advance

  • Fire Emblem: The Blazing Blade

Nintendo 64

  • The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time
  • Star Fox 64

Super NES

  • Donkey Kong Country
  • Super Mario World 2: Yoshiโ€™s Island

Game Boy

  • Dr. Mario
  • Kirbyโ€™s Dream Land

NES

  • Metroid
  • Metroid (Famicom Disk System ver.)
  • Super Mario Bros.

The library is pretty bare-bones, even if Nintendo promises to add more tracks in the future. What makes this even more bewildering is that many regions wonโ€™t even allow you to install the app, which adds another layer of confusion to the already confounding and convoluted cake that is the Nintendo Music app.

Future additions include Wii Sports, Super Mario 64, The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword, Splatoon 2, The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker, Donkey Kong Country 2, and F-Zero X. Since Nintendo owns the rights to all these games and more, why these arenโ€™t available from the get-go in unclear. What is even more odd is that Nintendo doesn’t even mention the name of the artists who made the music, but this might get rectified in later versions.

The Nintendo of 2024 is not only fighting the reality that music streaming platforms exist but is also making alarm clocks that wake you up with sounds from the companyโ€™s most iconic franchises, and it flew off the shelves in Japan. All we need now is a Nintendo cookbook and weโ€™ll have ourselves the complete Nintendo lifestyle.
