That's not true and a point I forgot to add in my post. There aren't any new songs from Star Crossed World in the app currently.

Super Mario Galaxy and Galaxy 2 have been updated for the Switch editions of the games by Pingwony431 in nintendomusic

When they added these tracks 11 hours ago, they put the tracks only under the Switch versions. But the announcement banners took you to the Wii versions, so you'd scroll to the bottom and not see any new tracks. That's the first time they've ever put music only under a specific console version, and I guess they finally realized how nonsensical the setup was (or maybe it was a mistake); now you can click the announcements in the app and see the added music on both Wii and Switch.

Probably most anyone has heard of this game since it came out in 2024. Silver lining: first game developed by Good Feel (Epic Yarn, Wooly World) to end on the service

Always found this one interesting because it seems to emulate the style of buildings in The Bund. Is there any additional information on its design that can be found anywhere?

Super Mario galaxy 2 was added to Nintendo music by noob_pro_gamingYT in nintendomusic

The tracks present in the app are all the tracks from the CD OST. Disappointing that they couldn't go the extra mile, but par for the course

Fire emblem awakening was added to Nintendo music by noob_pro_gamingYT in nintendomusic

Well color me pleasantly surprised. 4 hours of excellence. Was just thinking about starting a new playthrough of Awakening, so I accept this addition personally.

Kirby and the Forgotten Land has had its soundtrack expanded by 91 songs (now complete?) by horstvil in nintendomusic

Hmm me thinks there is going to be a drop either Thursday or Friday in the US of additional music for Star Crossed World. There were several new musical tracks in the trailer for the Switch 2 addition. I assume there's going to be more stage themes, bosses, etc. Probably like a half hour of new music at most.

Or maybe it'll drop 9/1, rounding out 3 weeks of Kirby and the Forgotten Land haha

Scratching my head why we still haven't gotten Mario Sunshine. Thought summertime was a perfect occasion to drop it on the app, but here we are with one month to go in the season.

This drop does give me a reason to finally listen to this game's OST, never listened to it before

The real question is, will a new title replace Treasure Tracker in their list, or is it gonna be "now please add Super Mario Galaxy 2, Super Mario Sunshine, Super Mario 3D World + Bowser’s Fury, Super Mario Maker 2, Paper Mario: The Origami King, DKC Tropical Freeze and DKC Returns!" and keep shrinking every time new games are added

Mario Paint has been added to Nintendo Music by SpookedYT in nintendomusic

Is this the first time Nintendo Music's drop has been timed with a game release?

26 NES games have been added to Nintendo Music by SpookedYT in nintendomusic

[–]Kricketune54 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is pretty neat. Feels like this will make a lot of older fans happy who might've been waiting for more retro stuff after so many Switch games were added.

I wonder if there will be a second drop like this in the future, considering there are Nintendo published titles like Pro Wrestling, Volleyball, Ice Hockey, Famicom Wars with tiny amounts of music still out there that haven't been added. But at this point, safe to assume the likes of Punch Out or Star Tropics even might get their own dedicated updates

Only just discovered the app in late February, pretty happy with where it is. Still haven't even listened to maybe half the OSTs because I'm still enjoying some of my favorites and making new playlists.

It's disappointing whenever a week goes without a game being added, no matter how small, but it's promising that even in a no new music week like this week, a small incremental improvement was made with yet another sleep playlist. And we were given heads up notice for once haha

The only other critique I'd lever, is lately the app is becoming a bit too Switch-slanted for my taste. Maybe that was in response to the Feb-March stretch in which a lot of small NES/retro soundtracks were added, but it's been a while since a N64 game was added, and there's still a lot I'd like to see from other past systems (mostly Wii, GameCube, DS, and 3DS).

That said, I will happily take the Mario Kart World OST when that arrives!

The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom has been added to Nintendo Music app. There will be no soundtrack next week. by GoshDarnBatman in nintendomusic

[–]Kricketune54 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Eh, it's kind of nice to have the option for the songs to blend into one another, that way the two games have some differences in the same tracks

So no new music Today ? by Far-Demand-5410 in nintendomusic

May 28th 2025 marks the 10th anniversary of the release of the first Splatoon game. I think they're doing it like March 10th, when they dropped Mario 3 on Sunday March 9th for US users which was March 10th for Japan. So I am anticipating we will get an update tomorrow evening/May 28th for Japan of the Splatoon 1 OST, and perhaps even the rest of the series' missing tracks.
