Nintendo's Surprise Hit: Nintendo Music App Now Available for NSO Members!
Nintendo has launched a new mobile app exclusively for Nintendo Switch Online (NSO) subscribers! This article explores the features and benefits of Nintendo Music.
Nintendo Music: iOS and Android Access
Exclusive to Nintendo Switch Online
From alarm clocks to museums, Nintendo continues to surprise. Now, they offer a music app streaming and downloading soundtracks from their vast game library – from classics like The Legend of Zelda and Super Mario to recent hits like Splatoon.
Launched recently, Nintendo Music is available on iOS and Android devices, offering easy access to Nintendo's musical legacy. It's free to download and use with an active NSO membership (standard or Expansion Pack). A free trial is available for those wanting to test the app before subscribing.
The app boasts a user-friendly interface. Search by game, track, or explore curated playlists by theme or character. It cleverly suggests music based on your Switch gaming history, and you can create and share custom playlists. A spoiler-free mode ensures uninterrupted enjoyment for those currently playing the games.
For focused listening, a looping function allows uninterrupted playback for 15, 30, or 60 minutes.
Nintendo promises ongoing content updates with new songs and playlists.
This app enhances the value of NSO, which already includes access to classic NES, SNES, and Game Boy games. It leverages nostalgia, competing effectively with other subscription services and music apps.
Nintendo Music provides legal and convenient access to video game soundtracks, currently available in the U.S. and Canada. Global expansion is hoped for in the future.
