Following the unexpected announcement of new hardware in Alarmo last month, Nintendo has once again surprised us with an out-of-left-field announcement. This time, it’s Nintendo Music, a new music streaming app available now on both iOS and Android devices.
Nintendo Music is specifically made for turns from Nintendo’s history, with a selection of game soundtracks from the NES all the way to the current Switch. The app is free to download and use–provided you have a Nintendo Switch Online subscription.
Nintendo has curated a handful of playlists out of the music currently available, from title-screen songs to tracks themed around a certain character. Also, since users will be logging in with their Nintendo Switch Online accounts, a separate list will include games that account has previously played–along with an option to hide songs that are potential spoilers.
