Wii Play was released by Nintendo for the Wii in 2006 as a collection of simple minigames designed to teach players the Wii Remote, and it was widely bundled with an extra controller. Its title music was credited to Nintendo composers Shinobu Tanaka and Ryo Nagamatsu, whose light electronic style defined many early Wii menus. Online, the track has been reshared on soundboards under descriptions like futuristic and time machine game music, because its chimes and synth pulse fit retro gaming edits and playful science fiction scenes.
