I really want this to succeed. I’ve had to import soundtrack CDs from Japan so many times for games I enjoy (Nintendo and non-Nintendo), so to not have to go through the import process would be so nice. I do wish Nintendo would follow the lead of other game companies however and release their soundtracks digitally on stores rather than just on Nintendo Music (which only has a limited selection). If you could just buy the FLACs or M4As off somewhere like iTunes, Qobuz, or 7digital it would save having to ship a soundtrack at all.
Pretty cool. Love to see some game OSTs on vinyl, and Nintendo publishing makes it that extra touch more official to probably push me into buying the small one.
BotW is an odd choice for an extensive soundtrack release though. I know it has some jams, but the bulk of the time playing it you mostly get this ambient feeling music that just drifts with the flow of things. Hard to see how they get 8 records out of that, but I’m sure if I looked up the tracks it’d make sense.
Given the collaspe of the Playstation concert tour Im wondering if this will have any traction.
Wasn’t there a PS concert few months back? Don’t know if it was a proper tour or just a one-off though.
That’s sad.
They cancelled the one in Michigan, doesn’t surprise me though. When I checked they only had maybe 1/5 of the seats sold. The cheapest tickets were $100.
I was really excited to hear the Helldivers 2 theme in person :(
Could it be the because of the current economical situation?
Maybe, but I’m guessing it was mainly due to lack of interest and that price that resulted in it not selling.
There’s a Stardew Valley concert in 2 weeks at the same venue that has a majority of the seats sold, and the tickets that are still available start at $70. I would imagine there were cheaper seats available previously as well.
