If you live in North America and were jealous of Europeans streaming music on their Wii Us, then you’ll be happy to hear that Rhapsody Music is coming to Nintendo’s console.
If you want to get in on the music streaming, you can download the app now for free, but you’ll need a Rhapsody or Napster subscription to access it. If you aren’t currently a subscriber, you can sign up for a 30-day free trial.
The Wii U Game Pad’s screen can be used to access and control all of the music. Rhapsody’s website says that users can access their libraries and playlists, “created in the Rhapsody apps for smartphones and tablets or online.” It’s not clear if users will be able to save tracks and create playlists on the Wii U.
With this news Rhapsody and Nintendo have partnered to make Napster available for Wii U owners in Europe and Latin America. Now, over 10 million Nintendo Wii U owners worldwide can stream Rhapsody and Napster on their Wii U.
