Mario Kart World Nintendo Music

Nintendo has commented on why we’ve yet to see Mario Kart World on the Nintendo Music app.

If there’s one thing fans have appreciated about the racer, it’s the quality and quantity of the soundtrack. The game features over 200 songs that have been rearranged from throughout the Super Mario series. Many Mario Kart games are represented, but also other classics like Super Mario Galaxy, New Super Mario Bros., and much more. Of course, there are original tracks as well.

Super Mario has a long way until it reaches its 100th anniversary, but the creators of the IP have now weighed in on what it’ll take to get there.

Super Mario just turned 40 last month. That means we’re not at the halfway point to 100. Still, the likes of executive fellow Shigeru Miyamoto, executive office Takashi Tezuka, composer Koji Kondo, and SRD president Toshihiko Nakago have weighed in on the future as part of a Nintendo Museum book.

Nintendo is taking films more seriously than it ever has before. The Super Mario Bros. Movie kicked things off a couple of years ago, and it’ll be getting a sequel in 2026 based on Super Mario Galaxy. Don’t forget that we’re also set to receive a live action movie for The Legend of Zelda in 2027.
