Description

Nintendo is continuing its commitment to fan service and digital content innovation with the recent expansion of the Super Mario Galaxy and Super Mario Galaxy 2 soundtracks on Nintendo Music.

This enhancement coincides with the celebrated release of both classic 3D adventures—Super Mario Galaxy (originally launched in 2007) and Super Mario Galaxy 2 (introduced in 2010)—on the Nintendo Switch and the newly launched Nintendo Switch 2 platforms, inviting a new generation of gamers to experience these acclaimed titles. Super Mario Galaxy and its sequel are widely recognized as standout entries in the Super Mario franchise, praised by both critics and fans for their inventive gameplay, stunning visuals, and memorable orchestral soundtracks.

Since their debut, these games have amassed numerous accolades, with Super Mario Galaxy alone selling over 12 million copies worldwide across its platforms.

The release of both games on Nintendo's hybrid and next-generation consoles further solidifies their legacy within Nintendo's lineup. To mark this occasion, Nintendo has updated the Nintendo Music app—a dedicated hub for curated Nintendo soundtracks, available exclusively as a free benefit for Nintendo Switch Online subscribers.

In this update, the company has introduced three additional tracks across both games.

'Good Night' has been added to the Super Mario Galaxy soundtrack, allowing fans to revisit one of the most soothing melodies from the series.

Meanwhile, two new tracks—'Twins' and 'Special Someone'—have been included for Super Mario Galaxy 2, expanding the musical library for longtime fans and newcomers alike. Nintendo stated in its official release that the addition of these tracks is part of its ongoing efforts to enhance the digital experience for Nintendo Switch and Switch 2 users.

A spokesman for the company explained that curated musical content, such as these soundtrack expansions, play a key role in delivering extra value to the Nintendo Switch Online service and in celebrating the company’s rich history of game music. Nintendo Music remains accessible as a complimentary download on the Nintendo eShop for anyone with an active Nintendo Switch Online membership.

The app continues to be updated with music from classic franchises and recent releases, making it a valuable resource for video game music enthusiasts. With the reintroduction of Super Mario Galaxy and Super Mario Galaxy 2 to modern hardware, Nintendo not only honors its gaming heritage but also reinforces the enduring appeal of the Super Mario series.

These soundtrack additions through Nintendo Music serve as another example of the company’s dedication to enhancing player engagement and delivering high-quality content across its innovative platforms.
