I think Nintendo already owns the rights to most (if not all) of the music for their games so I’m pretty sure your conspiracy theory is correct.

If they don’t own the rights to that music they’ve certainly been militant in taking down any other platform that makes it available.

There is a GitHub project working on a recompilation of both of these for PC. They’ve got Majora’s Mask working and are working on OoT. Looks beautiful, runs buttery smooth, and has custom controls with a free camera.

I’ve tried it and have a few thoughts:

Initial selection is only 23 games, not sure why they’re not just releasing everything. I guess they’re planning on parceling the music out like their emulators.

The choices of games are also kind of strange, like why 2 versions of Metroid? Why starfox 64 and not like Mario 64

The ability to extend songs up to 60 minutes is pretty cool

The idea of character specific playlists is interesting

It crashes semi frequently, not a good sign.

It does add value to the Switch online membership, but not much at this point.

They still work on most of the emulated versions I’ve tried (including the version that OP is playing here), but I haven’t tried on Sonic Origins

Edit: just checked and Sonic Origins doesn’t have the sound test for Sonic 2 so there’s no way to input these codes

Despite what the Supreme Court will tell you, corporations aren’t actually people, so you don’t have to worry about dead naming them.

This was exactly my first thought. Not surprised that the pioneers of shitty dlc made shitty dlc.

The company that rented it to you, because fully self-driving cars won’t be for private ownership, they’ll just replace rideshare drivers.
