Nintendo Music is a music streaming application for iOS and Android smart devices as well as web browsers featuring original soundtracks from various Nintendo games. The application requires a Nintendo Account with an active Nintendo Switch Online membership to use.

Music from Metroid and Metroid Prime have been available since the launch of the app. Music from Metroid II - Return of Samus and Super Metroid, as well as select tracks from Metroid Prime 4: Beyond, have been added via post-launch updates.

Overview

[edit | edit source]

Nintendo Music functions like most music apps and allows for streaming and downloading of music tracks, as well as creation of playlists, favoriting tracks, and other functions. Game soundtracks are usually added weekly.

The app contains music grouped by game, and almost all games also have their own set of themed playlists. All games have a "Top Tracks" playlist, that contains a selection of tracks that are largely considered the "main" ones of the game. The app also has a "spoiler block" feature, allowing users to filter out all tracks from a specific game. Almost every track has its own unique image that shows an occasion in which the track plays in that game, with the images having a white border to give them a resemblance to photographs. The mastering for the app's music tracks is handled by Noisycroak Co., Ltd. [1]

Outside of game-specific playlists, there are also general themed playlists that include tracks from various games (some of which include at least one Metroid series track), as well as specific playlists related to characters.

Certain tracks can be extended to 5, 10, 15, 30, or 60 minutes. Generally in the case of Metroid series tracks, most tracks that loop in-game can be extended (leaving out jingles, cutscene themes, and credits themes), but some exceptions exist. A sleep timer is also present, which allows users to set a time limit after which playback will stop.
