Oh wow, I didn't expect to see those getting Switch releases! I went through a phase around 2018 of being obsessed with the Mook releases after finding out Toriena did a track on one of them.

If you'd like to learn more, I recommend this on the Famicom cart release of Kira Kira Star Night to get you started~

Oh that's rad, I had no idea this thing was coming! Always meant to get around to these after seeing them in game shops here for years, ahaha. Is this the first time they've all been released digitally? I was always interested, but haven't had a Famicom forever, so I might well grab this eventually.

And this is the first time they've been available digitally outside of the books AFAIK, certainly the first time on console

Sorry for butting in, but I know the 8 Bit Music Power book came with a CD with a plain ROM on it if that's more convenient for you!

Oh of course, you're always welcome to chime in here! And yep, that's how I got my copy of 8 Bit Music Power back then so I can vouch for it~ I have a cart for Kira Kira but figured the book would be more convenient

You of all people are totally fine, I can hardly think of one of you on my feed without the other anyway, ahaha. But thanks, that's good to know! I've also seen that thing floating around forever, but had never looked into it at all. I might well just grab that if I find it for cheap then. Thanks! 🙏

This is getting a physical release, right? Any idea when that'll be out in the US?

sarahssowertty.bsky.social•151 days ago

Sorry, I don't have an answer for you. There was a Japanese physical release last year and the Clear River Games site mentions a physical release with a CD but the only other mentions of it say 'early 2025'
