Nintendo Music Adds 18 Mario Galaxy Free Roam Songs and Expands to Web, Tablet and CarPlay

Fans have treated the staged June music drops as possible signals of upcoming Nintendo announcements.

Overview

  • Nintendo Music published a new batch of 18 'Free Roam' Mario Kart World tracks on Tuesday, June 9, 2026, drawn from Super Mario Galaxy and Super Mario Galaxy 2.
  • The newly listed songs include named Galaxy-era pieces such as Egg Planet, Rosalina in the Observatory, Sky Station and Bowser's Galaxy Generator.
  • A major platform update that began rolling out earlier this month added a web/desktop player plus iPad support, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto and Siri track search.
  • Listening to Nintendo Music remains gated behind an active Nintendo Switch Online membership and the service is delivered off-console via the web and companion apps.
  • Community reaction has mixed frustration and curiosity over Nintendo's drip-fed release pattern, with some fans speculating the drops could precede a Direct or DLC despite no official confirmation.
