Guess what? Nintendo just rolled out its own music streaming service! It's called Nintendo Music and it's available on both Android and iPhone. The cool thing about this app is that it's designed for Nintendo Switch Online subscribers, so if you're already paying for that, you can get some extra tunes too. The app looks a lot like Spotify and even suggests music based on what games you play on your Switch.

But here's a unique feature: the app has a spoiler prevention mode. If you add a game, the app will hide songs and details that might spoil the game's surprises. You know, like that weird ending in Animal Crossing: Happy Home Designer.

So, why did Nintendo decide to do this? Well, it's a way to give fans more value for their subscription. But it's also a smart business move because Nintendo owns all the music rights to their games.

Now, you might be thinking, "Why not just use regular streaming services like Spotify? " Well, Nintendo Music has the advantage of being tailored to Nintendo fans. It can suggest music based on your gaming habits, which is pretty cool. But it also means you'll have to pay more if you don't already have a Switch Online subscription.

Overall, this is a nice extra for Nintendo fans, but it might not be worth it for everyone. It's all about whether you value having all your Nintendo music in one place.
