Nintendocore[note 1] is a broadly defined style of music that most commonly fuses chiptune with various hardcore punk and/or heavy metal subgenres, most often metalcore and post-hardcore. The genre is sometimes considered a direct subgenre of post-hardcore[10] and a fusion genre between metalcore and chiptune.[9] The genre originated in the early 2000s and peaked around the late 2000s[11] with bands like Horse the Band, Karate High School and Sky Eats Airplane pioneering the genre.
