• Search by song, game title, track name, or screenshot
• Loop songs for 15, 30, or 60 minutes
• Create and share personal playlists
• Built-in spoiler filter for game soundtracks
• Personalized recommendations based on Nintendo Switch Play Activity

Available Soundtracks Include:

• The Legend of Zelda
• Super Mario
• Animal Crossing
• Splatoon
• Metroid
• Nintendogs
• Kirby
• Pokemon
• Donkey Kong
• Fire Emblem

Subscription Options:

This move marks Nintendo's strategy to maintain control over its music catalog, following recent YouTube takedowns of unauthorized game music uploads. The company plans to add more soundtracks to the service in the future.
