I love listening to music like Mario , but I hate when the music stops and the app crashes every time I play music at night

Please credit the composers behind our childhoods.

As a very big Nintendo fan, all of the features of this app easily beat any other service that plays Nintendo music. You can extend timers which is one of my favourite features, it shows that the developers at Nintendo really put effort into this and cared about the product. The app runs smoothly, and also is very easy to use.

For a long time, people have been asking for Nintendo to just let us listen to their music. Remember that one Smash Direct where they showed someone listening to game music via their copy of Smash Ultimate? That isn’t exactly what people wanted. This could be. There’s a lot of work that has to be done though. I have 4 issues and the app lost 1 star for each issue. So I guess it’s 1 star.Firstly, the selection leaves a lot to be desired. The drip feed model ONLY worked for Mario Tennis Aces, and that’s because it had actual content at launch. Entire series or consoles like Xenoblade and the 3DS are nowhere to be found here. This makes a bad first impression, and I expect a pretty large user falloff like their games that did this. Secondly, the fact that the actual composers aren’t credited is a very anti-art choice to me. You would think it’s an extremely basic feature, but as we saw with the game selection, this app is missing extremely basic features. They also didn’t credit Grant Kirkhope in the Mario movie but that’s outside the scope of this review.Thirdly, realistically, the app shouldn’t exist. Do you wanna know what songs will never be added? Biri-Biri by Yoasobi, the Project Voltage songs and anything that’s not in a Nintendo game. What if I want to listen to Kirby music…AND something else? On the other hand though, if Nintendo put their songs on YouTube music, literally millions of hours of work would be content ID’d. Entire livelihoods would go down the drain so maybe it’s not so bad.Finally, I’ve been tiptoeing around it but it has become painfully obvious that this is just an excuse strike down YouTube uploads of their songs. While Nintendo is undeniably within their rights to do so, it’s frustrating because they’re clearly showing no effort to have the songs they strike on this app. Mario Parties, old Pikmin games, and Splatoon 2 are all not on this app, and they’re getting removed left and right. And that’s just off the top of my head. On YouTube, there’s real competition between channels to be the fastest one to upload the highest quality music, but if Nintendo can just DMCA those channels, there’s no reason for them to quickly and competitively add more music to this platform. This may be a hot take, but if this service was equal to or better than what YouTube was offering, I’d be fine with defaulting to it. But between seemingly being locked to Nintendo exclusives, and the way Nintendo drip feeds content, it’s not, and I don’t think it’s ever going to be there.
