Mod Subreddit updates and your feedback wanted

12 Upvotes

As we near the end of the year, many of us may be cozying up and listening to music. And this year, you may be listening to Nintendo Music from the official app!

Seriously, the traffic in this subreddit has exploded by an order of magnitude because of the new app announcement and ongoing releases:

Traffic Stats from reddit moderator tools

So just as we listen to music, so should we listen to each other. When a subreddit has a spike of activity like this, there are bound to be some growing pains as new members learn about the community and contribute new perspectives.

If you are new here, or if you need a refresher, please read over our rules: https://www.reddit.com/r/NintendoMusic/wiki/rules - Let us know if you have any questions.

I spent a few days looking over the feedback and announcement posts from years prior and also put them into a wiki page here too: https://www.reddit.com/r/NintendoMusic/wiki/meta - Most rules can be traced back to one of the posts listed here.

So with those few points mentioned, I also wanted to ask if anyone had any other ideas or suggestions for the community! The comments here are open.

Question How do you feel Smash will be handled on the Music app?

Upvotes

Given how gargantuan Smash OSTs tend to be compared to everything else, what with it comprising of several different series (some of which being third-party), I get the feeling that it’ll be handle much differently than other games. One way I can see it going, is that it’ll will be released in different “batches. Like one week you’ll get the Mario tracks, the next will be Zelda, then Kirby, Metroid, Fire Emblem etc. Another question I have is whether or not the third parties would be down for their music to be on the app. I can’t really see why they wouldn’t be, considering that Smash only comprises mere samples of those franchise’s entire discographies, worst case scenario is that their presence is limited to just remixes, which in other words R.I.P. Sonic, Dragon Quest and Kingdom Hearts.

But I would be interested in hearing all of your thoughts on this matter?

Y’know, it’s arguably the most possible that Smash Ultimate won’t get on Nintendo Music at ALL?

25 Upvotes

Am I the only one kinda just accepting already, we can’t count on the Ultimate, or either of the other 2 previous smash games really, soundtracks coming to nintendo music? Like eh, i can see brawl being easier, but srsly, am I wrong?

I haven’t counted or anything, but surely at least a third of the total music in that game must be 3rd party. And it’s not simply a question of ‘just include the tracks that came outta the game in it’, bcus there’s still a ton of ones that are remixes, exclusive to smash, that still won’t be anywhere else if not NM, that are still technically 3rd party.

Yah, the best thing we could probably hope for would be just all the smash exclusive/first party songs, which is better than nothing obviously, but for one, that would still mean a lotta remixes just not anywhere, and moreover, i don’t really see Nintendo doing that, like they probably should if it’s their only option, but probably won’t.

So like, the only other way if none of that, would be if they really did just go and get permission from every single party, something WHICH I doubt woulda been in the contract of a game finished 3 years ago and they had no idea theyd do this app at that time (not IMPOSSIBLE, sure, its ofc true there COULDA been some kinda contingency clause for it and we wouldn’t know, but not likely), so I’d say that be a struggle.

So…. has anyone else had this realisation, or upset about it? Does anyone think there’s any reason idk to believe otherwise? Id be hapoy to hear it, tho don’t expect too much change in attitude or anything. And sure, even IF in a few years from now, the app has every ost on it EXCEPT the smash ones, thats still close enough to perfect (save for that wait itself, but its not worth thinking about, just accept it), but it’d still be a shame.
