Mario Kart 64 Soundtrack Officially Added to Nintendo Music Library

Nintendo has added the Mario Kart 64 music to their music collections, which are being listened to by people on many platforms. This news has excited many fans who were playing the game back in the old times and are now getting to hear the music again after so long. The collection is also gaining attention from those who didn’t play it before.

Music of the Game From Old Times is Returning

Back when Mario Kart 64 came out in the year 1996 for the Nintendo 64 system, it was already famous because of the racing, but also the music was getting stuck in heads. Kenta Nagata, who has made the soundtrack, has done a job that is still memorable. Now all of that music is available again in a cleaner format.

Included are many songs like the one of Rainbow Road, the track of Toad’s Turnpike, Koopa Beach, and even the title screen, which plays at the start. Each piece of music reminds me of a different mood or gameplay feeling, making the memory feel fresher.

Where All This Can Be Heard

Nintendo has uploaded this soundtrack in some different places:

• Nintendo Official YouTube: Here the music has been posted in a playlist where every racecourse has its song separate. It is able to be listened to for free.

• Nintendo Switch Online Japan App: The Japanese version is already showing the soundtrack. But outside Japan, people are waiting and hoping for it too.

Nintendo doing this helps in keeping alive those old games not just by re-releasing them but also through music. Game music is becoming more respected now.

After this update, many users went to the internet to say how the songs made them feel. Some were saying it gave them childhood memories again; others said they had never played before but still liked it much.

On social sites like Reddit and Twitter, posts are showing excitement, some even sharing what tracks are their favorite. People are saying Nintendo should keep doing such music updates.

Will Other Games Also Get Soundtracks?

Now that Super Mario 64, Ocarina of Time, and now Mario Kart 64 are included, people are wondering what’s coming next. A few say maybe Donkey Kong 64, while others want something different. Still nothing official.

For now, Mario Kart 64 music is available again and is sounding just like how many remember—or even better.
