Nintendo Music features iconic soundtracks from beloved games like Super Mario, Animal Crossing, Splatoon, The Legend of Zelda, Metroid, and Pokémon.
Users can stream or download songs for offline listening. The app organises songs by game and offers curated playlists based on moods, characters, and moments.
The app allows users to create custom playlists and discover new music based on their Nintendo Switch play history. A unique “spoiler prevention” filter hides songs from games you haven’t played or finished. You can also extend select tracks to 15, 30, or 60 minutes for uninterrupted listening. Users can simply download the app and log in with their Nintendo Switch Online account to start listening.
