Episode 31-6 Nintendo Power Hour: A Tribute to GilvaSunner
This podcast is going to Ninten-do what Nintendo won't! I mean, Ninten-don't take this podcast down, Nintendo, please! This week is a sort-of tribute to the great YouTube channel GilvaSunner. GilvaSunner uploaded (mostly) Nintendo soundtracks and took down his channel last month after a flurry of Copyright blocks. I mean, we get it, it's their licensed property. But YouTube is also one of the few ways to find this music online! So this week we're going to listen to some awesome Nintendo music in tribute everyone who uploads video game music on the internet!
