Another week has come and brought with it yet another Nintendo soundtrack to listen to. Now, while it’s always a pleasure regardless of which game Nintendo chooses to grace fans with, on occasion some are more, let’s say, prestigious than others, and this week it is indeed a prestigious OST that has come to Nintendo Music.

As ever, if you’d like to hear all this music, you’ll need an active Nintendo Switch Online subscription. From there, head to your Android or iOS app storefront and download Nintendo Music at no additional cost. Super Metroid is an all-timer, not just because of its music, but also because of its memorable score by Kenji Yamamoto and Minako Hamano. If you’ve yet to play it, we highly recommend doing so.
