Super Mario NES Banger Joins Nintendo's Music App, Here's The Full Tracklist

Is this the smallest update so far? Nice to have this OST, but would've been better if we also got Super Mario Bros. 3 with it.

“Although the game itself might not be quite as popular as certain other Mario side-scrollers…”

I don’t know about that. Can you name another Mario side-scroller that’s won game of the year for ten years straight?

Love it! This game was one of THE hot kids’ gifts during holiday season of what was it, 1988? Somehow my Mom got me a copy for Christmas, and it’s still one of my favorite Mario games.
These tracks bring back memories of my high school days. 😊

Well, well. If it the Mario game that wasn't. The Mario game that lied. Don't even bother calling it Doki Doki Panic anymore, we're past that now. It's Mario 2 in all it's plant-plucking, Wart-having, dream-inhabiting glory.

Sorry guys, they did this one for me. Thanks Mr. Nintendo

drip feed indeed. eight minutes of soundtrack in one week.
still, it's a classic that obviously belongs on the service, but... yeah, this service is kinda. ... ... it's just kinda.

Super Mario Bros. 2 (Or rather the Advance remake) was my first Nintendo game. I’ve never stopped to think how good the soundtrack is. Very elaborate albeit a small amount of tracks for the NES.

Oh hey, it's the game of the year 27 years in a row. How about that.

Should have just added the Super Mario All-Stars collection. The NES version is hard to listen to after growing up with the SNES version.

Always liked the invisibility theme in this one.

I can’t believe it! They added 14 songs this week! I am so excited and thrilled that they are hardly adding anything to this service!

Also this is easily the worst 2D Mario soundtrack so this was especially disappointing

Always one of my favorite soundtracks. Brings me great memories of my childhood during the NES days.

Favs include...
Title BGM (1st remix of the SMB1 water theme)
Please Select Player (Always fun and goes hard)
Ground BGM (Quintessential SMB2)
Underground BGM (Great sounding underground theme besides "the" underground theme)
Boss BGM (Goes hard, gotta love it)
Final Boss BGM (I love how you just know this isn't your average boss fight)
Ending (Just a classic, victorious, ending tune).

@YunoboCo Really? Is it worse than all four NSMB soundtracks? Even if it is, it’s still got some great tracks.

As for the release cadence, one per week is at least consistent. It sure beats the random drip-feed of NSO games. But if it were any slower than one per week, I’d be complaining too.

It would be great if Nintendo went to the the trouble of licensing the soundtracks from artists doing covers of their music, such as the Super Mario Bros. 3 Akihabara Electric Circus, or The Fantastic World Of Super Mario Bros. 3! Same for Metroid, Kid Icarus, The Legend Of Zelda, Donkey Kong, Super Mario Land, etc. A lot of those albums came out when Nintendo was still white-hot popular in the late 80s, and early 90s.

@Teksette The only game I ever saw before I got it. They still don't know, but I still was really happy when I got it! (And since I remember this it must be waaaay past the first release date of this game!)

One of the best Mario soundtracks imo. Definitely the best out of the 3 on NES.

Wow that's short!! How do you not notice that when playing?! 😂

EIGHT minutes??! Hahahahaha.
They could still add Pokemon music later in the week. They have done that once or twice, I think.

One of my favourite Mario games and an excellent sound track indeed. The first EVER video game I played at 4 years old. I replay it often on NSO. Love it. Don't care that it is not conventional Mario. I knew of this before Mario Bros 1! It is still a really really fun game!

Although, I am amazed to hear the total sound track is just 8 mins across all songs. Never felt that way!

3 is revolutionary, 1 is a classic but 2 is the best.

It was obvious!
It was pointless!
It was...short...

I LOVED IT!

Stunned this wasn’t apart of the initial launch lineup. The music deserved as much, but there isn’t enough of it to warrant a stand-alone drop.

Nearly four decades later, it still slaps.

Ohhhhhh, dear. Just reading the title Super Mario Bros. 2 gets the Ground BGM theme stuck in my head for another month straight!

Super Mario Bros. 2's soundtrack is short, but the game's overworld theme is one of the best overworld themes in any Mario game.

@Mana_Knight Yeah, Super Mario Bros. 2 doesn't have a lot of tracks. Outside of the situation-specific themes (character select, boss battles, etc.), there's only two different level themes in the whole game. Anywhere outside? Overworld theme. Anywhere inside? Underground theme. Even the first game had more level themes than that lol.

@PikminMarioKirby Same amount of tracks as Brain Age. Brain Age was much longer but half of the tracks were jingles and the ones that aren't are looped multiple times over so they're not actually too dissimilar.

Love that soundtrack. It's one of the better ones. Also, we're just over a month away from the full Switch 2 reveal. I'm ready!

@squidduforeal SMBW was added on a Friday, one day after the app launched. The very next game came the following Monday.

@garfreek
Haha that reminds me I took a “sneak peek” of a Transformers “Bluestreak” figure that my aunt left under the tree for me once. I knew it wasn’t clothes. 😄

Games like Mario 2 were always Santa gifts that didn’t appear till Xmas morning. Happy times! 😊

I read that as Super NES and thought it was Super Mario All-Stars 😔

this is one of the all time great soundtracks

Eight minutes? Wow, despite how much I've played that game, I'd never have guessed the whole soundtrack is so short. I guess that goes to show how memorable the songs are

Why did you put Super Mario NES instead of 2

I've just installed the Nintendo Music app on my PC. Bliss.

Never understood the lack of love for SMB2. Sure its different, sure it may not originally concieved as a Mario game... but it have its DNA in it. The game was lots of fun, original gameplay, lovelly weird ideas, and full of awesome new characters. One of my all time favorites.
Ah, and the ending was one of the best of the NES era.

@geiseldiesel

"Why did you put Super Mario NES instead of 2"

?

@EarthboundBenjy I mean you can just listen to all these tracks and more and remixes on Youtube, it's kinda...pointless.

I had to rewatch the sensational meme animation "Mouse Fan Club" because of this announcement. ^^

The game that reminds us that vegetables are lethal.
