Now we need the red/blue/yellow, gold/silver/crystal, and ruby/sapphire/emerald soundtracks. I love how they sprinkled in sound effects too like getting an item, leveling up, evolving, etc.

[@haziebien]

This is one of the best soundtracks and I've been listening to it for so many years, and now it's FINALLY uploaded here. So happy to see that it is "officially" out, but I'll always be thankful for other channels that posted the soundtracks. And of course, game freak still has yet to post other incredible games like ORAS and BW and so many others ones that I also listened to as a kid.

[@Capricorntiger6]

🎵🎵This is how you do it.🎵🎵 In all honesty, I don't know how hard it is for companies to release their music to fans but it's something that we want dearly. It benefits everyone to give us what we want and if you really want to give us a nostalgia trip not only should you have done this but you should have released CDs as well ala Smash Bros. as opposed to tearing down fan pages. Please keep doing this.

[@fireXdisaster]

Listen to this soundtrack is always awesome, it reminds me of the day when i went to buy Diamond Version on its launch date, it truly was a good trip for 14-year-old me, now i'm 29. Hope we can get Black/White soundtrack soon, that easily is the best soundtrack of the franchise!

R.I.P Nintendo Wifi Connection

[@JAKWOLF1]

I'm sure this comes after the recent take down of a popular KZbin channel which for the last few years has been almost our only way to listen to the video game soundtracks of all our favorite video games. There was never a truly official place to listen to any of these songs anywhere else as Nintendo has never provided any sort of service or platform in which we can listen to even the most obscure titles OSTs. It's a huge downer we lost the channel, but I atleast thank you for uploading the full ost of diamond and pearl, an official OST release we can listen to at any time. I hope y'all plan to release the OSTs of all Pokemon games following this one as I'm sure people want to hear the wonderful music from red and blue, ruby and Sapphire, all the way to legends of Arceus. Heavens knows I would return to listen to all those wonderful songs time and time again. Here's to hoping Nintendo releases the OSTs of their other titles elsewhere too because I would love love LOVE to listen to the soundtrack of the Zelda franchise again and listen to them on official means.

[@teamvikavolt2856]

The sound quality is so crisp and clean! Just the fact that this is an official release is amazing, too! Thank you!

[@ShirakoriMio]

Please keep doing this! Posting soundtracks in an accessible way is something we've needed for a long time - but please make songs individual videos, start to finish. That makes it much easier for people to put them in playlists they like and continue listening to them more easily. -
