The Switch 2 is here! Is what we would have opened with had this episode gone up on time. Still, Nintendo’s latest is the newest console on the market and it’s doing pretty well, so we gathered up some fans of Nintendo music for this one. To try something new and to celebrate a wider range of Nintendo music history, each panelist was allowed to choose one non-RPG song, which resulted in a great episode of both expected and unexpected musical choices.
Even branching out like this barely scratches the surface of Nintendo’s long music history, but we gotta start somewhere! If you’re still reading this, we both know there’s only one way to kick this off: Let’s-a-go!
