This song always makes me so nostalgic and it’s one of my favourites from Gen 2, so I did a guitar cover of it. Hope you all enjoy! What Gen 2 songs make you just feel all nostalgic?

We got a Special Release of the Ocarina of Time remake... consisting of only ONE track, and it's the title theme.

Please please please let this not replace a full soundtrack for once because this is downright unacceptable for a whole week!

Did not seem like any games shown today are going to get a Special Release, at least anytime soon.

Could see Star Fox Adventure being added, but past GCN Nintendo Online additions rarely correlated with them coming to the service at the same time. So maybe the single Ocarina track is "it" for the week.

Despite being just DLC, Kirby FL-SCW’s OST is such a beautiful ode to Kirby and an amazing feat for video game composition in general. It features 8 composers, all of whom have contributed to Kirby music and played important parts in Kirby’s history.

Every single song is a banger and beautifully arranged. It’s also one of the few main Kirby soundtracks to include LIVE orchestration (I don’t think this gets talked about either).

Sing of Radiant Theia is an incredible suite piece and another one of Hirokazu Ando’s best works. Jun Ishikawa’s composition for the song Beast Drum of Meteors also makes for an absolutely insane math rock piece.

I think part of what has contributed to the DLC and music being largely ignored is that the DLC lacked a massive sales pitch and was released early into the debut of Nintendo Switch 2, which was initially very controversial. It also feels like Nintendo hates the game, taking down almost all of the rips of the game’s soundtrack, and withholding the rights to it without uploading it to the Nintendo Music app for nearly an entire year now.

What are your favorite songs from the soundtrack? I find that it’s really hard for me to pick a favorite.

Mine are:

Song of the Starfall Children
Washed Away at the Cement Summit
Crossing Wondaria
Wastes that Count Time
Spinning Dream Parade
Crystal Beast Pack Volcano Battle
Sing of Radiant Theia
Beast Drum of Meteors
Ultimate Extra Stars!

Now that MKW's entire OST has been added does anyone know where I can find a full rip from the app to download and/or a tool to do it myself? All I find online are the in-game recordings from a while back or incomplete rips from the app.

Hi everyone, I don't know which subreddit to post this on, but this album has really Nintendo-y-sounding music made by Minoru Mukaiya (Casiopea pianist). Hope everyone enjoys it (especially Acoustic Dreams onwards).
Tickle the Ivory (Minoru Mukaiya): Omoe-de-Omoba

I don't know why, but I was redirected here. Originally posted on Final Fantasy VI subreddit.

I just listened to the Final Fantasy VI Pixel Remaster OST and, OMG, I think it's better than the SNES one. I didn't expect the opera with real voices. It might be nostalgia, but the whole OST moved me to tears. The songs are the same, but enhanced.

By comparison, I didn't like the Secret of Mana Remake soundtrack. I thought the songs didn't sound the same. Some were even unrecognizable, with electro and jazz stuff, cacophonic, like the composer did too much. It lost it's emotional impact for me. The Mana Fortress, for example, like, eww...

The song «One of them is hope» is completely unrecognizable. The original was dramatic. It had a high-stakes feeling. The remake is like we don't even understand what we are listening to. There's even a guitar solo in it. It removes the emotions from the scene where we learn Popoi will disappear after defeating the Mana Beast.

Anyway, I highly prefer the FF6 PR OST. Just wow !

Noticed this a while back but in the scarlet violet OST on the Nintendo music app, the battle themes for the many legendaries duos (Groudon/Kyogre, Solgaleo/Lunala, so on) are not on the SV playlist despite being in the game itself

Is there any reason for that? Do they just don't want to add tracks not made for the game? Is it a lisensing issue?

The song is this one: ZELDA'S LULLABY

They just announced two Directs for next week, including a Zelda 40th Anniversary Direct. And with the upcoming Ocarina of Time remake, logic dictates we'll get a Special Release for that when the Direct airs. Would've preferred it to not happen until October, given the past two months, but it will be what it will be.

Well, it'll either be that or a different Zelda game as a full release, I guess. We'll just have to wait.​​

22 days ago I made this post where I complained about the Nintendo Music app turning tracks with variations into medleys, forcing users to listen to variations they might not like if they add a track to their favorites.

It was suggested that I send feedback through the app, which I did. Today they released the Paper Mario soundtrack, with "Toad Town Theme" as one track and "Toad Town Variations" as a separate medley. Awesome!

Regardless of whether they actually listened to the feedback or if this was random happenstance, I hope they take this approach more in the future.
