Pilotwings Forever

barSILENCE: A Video Game Music Podcast

[Episode 35] This month, barSILENCE is soaring to new heights with the unbelievably fun soundtracks of Nintendo’s Pilotwings series!

From the 16-bit skies of the Super Nintendo to the 3D landscapes of the Nintendo 3DS, we’re earning our wings to the funky, laid-back, and groovin’ tunes that define these light-hearted flight simulators.

Let’s take to the skies, earn those licenses, gold medals, and set some high scores! It's time to fly pilots!
