Nintendo Switch Online (NSO) subscribers have a new treat. The Nintendo Music app now includes the complete soundtrack of Super Mario Kart, the classic Super Nintendo game from 1992. This addition lets fans enjoy 37 iconic tracks from the first game in the popular Mario Kart series.
What Is the Nintendo Music App?
The Nintendo Music app is exclusive to NSO subscribers. It launched last year and allows users to stream music from various Nintendo games without ads. Over time, the app has added soundtracks from different gaming eras, including titles from the Super Nintendo and GameCube.
About Super Mario Kart’s Soundtrack
Super Mario Kart was a groundbreaking game for its time. It introduced characters like Mario, Luigi, and Bowser racing across tracks that became iconic. The game’s music is just as memorable. Tracks like Mario Circuit and Koopa Beach are fan favorites and hold nostalgic value for many players.
Now, NSO subscribers can relive those memories by streaming the soundtrack on their devices.
Nintendo’s Recent Music Updates
Nintendo Music has steadily expanded its catalog. Recently, it added soundtracks from The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker and the Donkey Kong Country trilogy. These updates often coincide with major announcements, such as new game releases or hardware updates. For example, the release of the Super Mario Kart soundtrack came shortly after Nintendo unveiled the next Mario Kart game and the Nintendo Switch 2.
Why This Matters
Nintendo Switch Online faced criticism when it launched, but it has improved over time. The addition of exclusive content like music, profile icons, and classic games makes the subscription more valuable. Fans appreciate these updates, which add entertainment options beyond gaming.
