User reviews

Good, but there’s problems

The app is good for the most part, the music is good. But there’s a couple of problems

1. Songs not playing

When I play certain songs, they show up, but no audio plays from it and it just skips to the next song. If it doesn’t play, just remove it from the album in general.

2. Purchases

In modern phones, when it asks you to purchase support for a console “for free” (if you can get it for free, why have an option? Just let it be inside automatically. It’d save the hassle), it says it’s purchased, but when you try to press the console, it tells you to purchase again, as if you haven’t done it, and when you purchase again, it’ll say you already purchased, which you have, but when press the console it’ll tell you to purchase again, and again, and AGAIN, and the cycle goes on. And there’s a second option that says “Get (console name) for null.” Press that and literally nothing happens.

If you could fix these problems, that would be great! Anyway, God loves you!

Genuine Treasure

This app is perfect, i sincerely mean that. It’s the best way to re-live the music of my childhood. All consoles can be purchased for free now too! (no scam) I’ve been using this app for years now with no issues or worries. Furthermore, I just want to say what a shame it would be to lose this app to a future iOS update. Maker of this app if you read this please ensure future prof of this app.

Nintendo music before Nintendo music

Using this in the big ‘26 rn, this app was way ahead of its time. Sucks that it doesn’t have a bigger library of songs but at least we got stickerbrush symphony. Literally just add the GameCube library, cuz it looks like Nintendo seems to have thought that a “special” release of their fantastic Mr fox looking starfox game is miles more important than the melee soundtrack. Please add the GameCube library im on my hands and knees here
