Nintendo remains celebrated within the gaming industry for its memorable soundtracks, weaving audio identities as iconic as the gameplay found on its flagship consoles, including the Nintendo Switch and Nintendo 3DS.
While official Nintendo soundtracks occasionally see release—such as 2024’s much-anticipated Breath of the Wild eight-LP box set—it’s clear that a vast array of classic tunes remain unavailable in vinyl form.
Stepping into this gap, the fan-run channel Huappy Spins has garnered attention by showcasing both official and unofficial Nintendo-related vinyl releases, ensuring timeless game music reaches a broader audience. Huappy Spins curates an eclectic selection of video game soundtracks, including titles from the Nintendo 3DS such as 'The Sounds of the Nintendo 3DS,' featuring fan-favorite tracks like 'Home Menu,' 'Mii Maker,' and the nostalgic ‘Activity Log Software Library.’ Each vinyl pressing is visually tailored, with colored records and bespoke center stickers that echo the essence of their respective games.
The channel’s thumbnails further highlight each LP’s artwork, amplifying the visual allure for dedicated collectors and Nintendo enthusiasts. It’s important to clarify that Huappy Spins is not the manufacturer of these vinyl records.
According to a recent update from the channel, many of the showcased selections—ranging from Mario Party 2 and Yoshi’s Woolly World to The Minish Cap and the iconic Pokémon Red, Blue, and Yellow soundtracks—are available through reputable retailers.
Outlets like iam8bit, Kontakt Audio, Fangamer, Mana Wave, and Black Screen Records offer official versions for fans eager to own authentic pieces of video game music history.
The channel also features soundtracks from beloved indie and third-party titles prominent on Nintendo platforms, including Stardew Valley, Spiritfarer, Citizen Sleeper, and Professor Layton and the Curious Village. While some recordings highlighted by Huappy Spins are digital transfers of vinyl albums, there’s a unique satisfaction in witnessing treasured Nintendo melodies emanate from a spinning disc.
The tactile experience of vinyl—paired with the distinctive art and color schemes—provides a new way for fans to connect with the games they love. With video game soundtracks growing in recognition and demand, Nintendo’s legacy of music continues to inspire both official releases and vibrant fan-driven communities.
For those looking to expand their collection or simply relive favorite melodies, exploring the world of Nintendo vinyl records—both through official eShop offerings and enthusiastic channels like Huappy Spins—is an invitation to enjoy game music beyond the screen.
