Nintendo Music: Difference between revisions
(→Super Mario soundtracks: Reworded and expanded the section about language differences. The word "language" is now used instead of "region", as the language used by the app is simply the language set on the device, without being affected by factors such as Nintendo Account region. I've also tried to avoid areas that aren't relavent to our coverage of the app (including a complete list of games with additional languages for track names, as Splatoon series games would have to be included).) |

The only ''Super Mario'' soundtrack to currently display tracks in | Most soundtracks on the app only have track names in American English and Japanese, with all other languages using the American English names (even if an official translation exists in other sources). The only ''Super Mario'' soundtrack to currently display tracks in additional languages is ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]''. In contrast, game titles and playlists do consistently use their official localized names for each language. Likewise, cover images for games and playlists as well as images for tracks tend to feature box art and game screenshots from the American English releases of games when applicable. While the covers for most games and playlists, along with a small selection of track images, are distinct when using Japanese, other languages tend to only feature different covers when there is a notable difference in naming (such as ''[[StreetPass Mii Plaza]]'' having a different title in most languages, and the [[Wii]]'s {{iw|miiwiki|Check Mii Out Channel}} being titled the Mii Contest Channel in European regions). Regardless of what language the app is set to, typing either the European or American English names of games, tracks, or playlists in the search function will bring up matching results (for example, the track "3DS Rock Rock Mountain" from ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe'' appears even if the user searches for "3DS Alpine Pass"). | ||

Nintendo Music is a mobile music streaming app published by Nintendo on the App Store and Google Play. It allows users to play music from a variety of Nintendo games, including many from the Super Mario franchise, with additional soundtracks added regularly over time. It features curated playlists based on specific characters and themes, with users also able to create and share their own playlists. The app also features options to filter music from certain games in order to avoid spoilers, and the "Extend to..." feature, which allows the length of certain tracks to be extended to 15, 30, or 60 minutes. The service is available exclusively to subscribers of Nintendo Switch Online.
Super Mario soundtracks
- Main article: List of Super Mario tracks on Nintendo Music
The app's search screen shows a list of all of the included games, which can be sorted by the platform they were released for, the year they were released, or how recently they were added to the service. The app uses the first release of a game in any territory for its year of release. There is also a section listing games on the app that the user has played on Nintendo Switch (including via the Nintendo Switch Online service) and Wii U.[3]
Most soundtracks on the app only have track names in American English and Japanese, with all other languages using the American English names (even if an official translation exists in other sources). The only Super Mario soundtrack to currently display tracks in additional languages is Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. In contrast, game titles and playlists do consistently use their official localized names for each language. Likewise, cover images for games and playlists as well as images for tracks tend to feature box art and game screenshots from the American English releases of games when applicable. While the covers for most games and playlists, along with a small selection of track images, are distinct when using Japanese, other languages tend to only feature different covers when there is a notable difference in naming (such as StreetPass Mii Plaza having a different title in most languages, and the Wii's Check Mii Out Channel being titled the Mii Contest Channel in European regions). Regardless of what language the app is set to, typing either the European or American English names of games, tracks, or playlists in the search function will bring up matching results (for example, the track "3DS Rock Rock Mountain" from Mario Kart 8 Deluxe appears even if the user searches for "3DS Alpine Pass").
Soundtracks marked with an asterisk (*) are non-Super Mario games that contain themes originating from the Super Mario franchise, while soundtracks in bold are redirects to another existing soundtrack. Release dates are according to North American time.[4]

Notes
- "Jump Up, Super Star!" from Super Mario Odyssey is the only Super Mario track on the app that is labeled as selects but is not labeled as a top track for its game, as a different version of the song, "Jump Up, Super Star! - New Donk City Festival", appears as a top track for Super Mario Odyssey instead.
- Dr. Mario (NES) and Dr. Mario (Game Boy) are the only Super Mario games on the app to not have three tracks labeled as selects each. Instead, they collectively add up to three tracks, with "Title Screen" being chosen from the NES version and "Fever" and "Chill" being chosen from the Game Boy version.
- Luigi's Mansion and Super Mario Galaxy are the only Super Mario games on the app to not have an "Available on Nintendo Switch" link to Nintendo's website on their pages. Although the latter game is featured in Super Mario 3D All-Stars, this collection was delisted before the release of the app.
