In this case it's more about where the song is used than the song itself though.

Why did the N64 have such sad tunes? It's probably just nostalgia, but I remember beating SM64 and Starfox, then going to the menus and just being so sad that the fresh experience was over, and I was stuck with those songs I'd heard over and over.

very melancholic, probably because it's in minor

It just sounds so lonely.

how do you interpret that as sad? It's not super happy but i don't interpret it as sad. It's gives me a sense of longing and serenity. Conflicting feelings, because it makes me long for something i can't put my finger on but it's calming.

It's not nostalgia. it's always made me feel that way since i first played it.

The word you're looking for is wistful.

yeah. i don't associate it with sadness though. it's more on the happy side. I suppose it's like that feeling like 90's anime protagonists get when they're all "man there must be more to life than this" and then the crazy adventure starts

only it never happens to me and everything stays boring

In the original it was a nice tune but they also used it at the end of EOU2 story mode, which is a huge cliffhanger

feels more like a hardwerk montage set in Disney's Africa

that's a pretty fantastic score. I really need to give this series a playthrough

It fits the atmosphere and seems intentional, but it's still a somber choice for such a gentle scene
