Alas, the festive season has drawn to a close.
And I’m guessing that means that you may now have a tad less time on your hands to dedicate to playing video games.

You may find that your gaming hours have reduced now that it’s time to go back to the daily grind, but worry not.
There’s another way that you can inject some gaming magic into your life, and that’s via the wonderful Nintendo Music app.
If you’re writing a report or working on an essay, you can’t exactly down tools to load up your latest play, but you can transport yourself to another world while you work via gaming soundtracks.

That’s possible via Spotify, YouTube … you name it, but arguably no platform is better intended for this purpose than Nintendo Music.
Nintendo fans can look ahead to Pokémon Legends Z-A this year.
Nintendo Music is free to use if you have a valid Nintendo Switch Online membership.

And no, you don’t need the fancy ‘plus Expansion Pack’ edition of the subscription.

Animal Crossing: New Horizons, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, Pokémon Scarlet & Violet, and The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild are a few of the titles with their soundtracks included.
