I have downloaded it and am getting memories of BotW

I already am working on a playlist

 

[VikzeLink]

It's great that they're finally doing something like this, but I won't be using it.
I've already got most of it as MP3's ^^

Just Found Sidon's Theme!

Went through OoT! @Daku Rinku

 

[A Link In Time]

It's a pretty limited selection so far, but they started with arguably the two biggest headliners: Ocarina of Time and Breath of the Wild. I've added songs from both games to my favorites. I also saw on Nintendo Life that Skyward Sword's music will be added soon.

 

[Prince Sidon]

Yeah true^

 

[mαrkαsscoρ]

nintendo has thousands of games, starting off w/ such a meager selection is so typical, so I can only hope the updates are frequent enough and include a good batch of game ost's each time

I've been listening to it non-stop since it was announced. I hope they add music quicker than they do games to NSO. Super Mario 64, Skyward Sword, Wind Waker, and Donkey Kong Country 2 are all confirmed and would have been some of my most wanted.

 

[Commander_Has]

I’ve already done all of this on pandora.

 

[TheGreatCthulhu]

There is a potential issue I'm seeing.

Nintendo isn't crediting the original composers of the pieces, and they should.

 

[Commander_Has]

That could quickly backfire

 

[Vanessa28]

OoT Gerudo Valley theme is all I need

 

[Commander_Has]

For real

 

[Prince Sidon]

OoT Gerudo Valley theme is all I need

I ahve that one

 

[Vanessa28]

I ahve that one

Yep, me too but to have it on the switch as well is double cool

Yeah, the starting lineup of games offered is honestly pathetic, even compared to NSO. At least with NSO they have the potential excuse that they want to make each game run as perfectly as possible on the emulator (ignore the fact that the N64 games were approaching being unplayable at launch) but that excuse just doesn’t exist here. There’s literally no reason why they shouldn’t have games on offer in the triple digits. Instead we have a mere 22 games plus Wii console music (and 2 of those games are the NES and FDS versions of Metroid so really there’s only 21 games). Also, why these games specifically? Why Tomadachi collection? Why Blazing Blade? Why the Game Boy version of Dr.Mario?

That being said, it’s nice to finally have an official way of listening to these outside of the games themselves, and the app itself is pretty nice all things considered. I especially like being able to extend the music. My only other gripe is that my game music playlist doesn’t just include Nintendo music so this can’t be a full replacement for my usual music player, but I don’t think that’s Nintendo’s fault per se.
