NINTENDOCORE

r/nintendocore

Nintendocore is a subgenre of metal which is influenced by retro video games. Synths reminiscent games from the 80s and 90s- often produced by actual modified Gameboys or other consoles- are mixed with heavy music to create a unique, aggressive, and nostalgic sound. Nintendocore often also includes lyrics and samples that reference old-school video games. Horse the Band is considered the creator/most successful artist of the genre, but a plethora of upcoming musicians keep the genre alive today.
