The Nintendo Music app leaves behind its mobile exclusivity to land on web browsers, tablets, and car infotainment systems via Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Additionally, it adds 130 tracks from Mario Kart World and a feature that generates custom playlists based on your frequent listens. If you already pay for Nintendo Switch Online, there's no extra cost. Now you can take your game soundtracks to more screens without lifting a finger. 🎵
Expanded compatibility and playlists that spy on you with affection 🎧
The update deploys the Nintendo Music interface in environments it previously ignored. Web access lets you skip the phone if you're working from a PC, while in the car, integration with CarPlay and Android Auto offers voice control without distractions. The most striking technical novelty is the playlist generator: an algorithm that analyzes your listening history to create automatic mixes. It's not magic, it's statistics applied to your sonic obsessions. The 130 songs from Mario Kart World arrive to liven up any journey.
Now you can listen to Mario music while driving like a Koopa 🚗
Finally, the feature no one asked for but we all deserve: listening to the Mario Kart soundtrack while going to the supermarket. However, the app does not include assistance to avoid fines if you get too excited by the rhythm of Rainbow Road. And watch out, because the custom playlist might reveal that you've been listening to Bowser's Castle theme for three hours straight. We don't judge, but maybe you need a break. Nintendo knows you better than your therapist.
