This is the type of thing that 5 years from now will be trivia.
“Did you know? For just over 3 months, Nintendo Online allowed it’s users to stream music? It’s true! Starting in late October, and continueing into January 2025, you could listen to dozens of Nintendo music. Then Nintendo disconinued the service for…no reason.”
I agree, but with a much longer time window.
5 years from now the headline will be “Nintendo sunsetting music service” with the top comment being “What service?”.
The apps are already built and will require very little maintenance. Since it’s a “value add” it doesn’t need many users to convince Nintendo to keep it turned on.
It even has the Wii Channels music!
Hmm adding their music to streaming services would be better, so i could do playlist of game music from nintendo, square enix and so on. But i guess better than nothing. Waiting for a lot more Fire Emblem Soundtrack
There doesn’t seem to be a whole lot of their game music library on it. ToTK isn’t even on there.
It’s like 8 total games. They are probably going for their stupid drip release strategy.
Well, at least drip release means that I can rip the music on a set schedule to distribute to more people/place in other repositories.
Fuck Nintendo for having their legendary composers make some of the most iconic music in gaming and then making them practically unlistenable in a legal manner.
For example: why the fuck is the legal distribution of the Cadence of Hyrule soundtrack limited to 25 vinyl presses given to Twitter winners, and NOTHING ELSE???
silvagunner died for this make sure it’s good
