Brawl "OST"

Okay, so I downloaded all of the songs from brawl and put them on my iPod, mostly in preparation for a ~12 hour plane ride I'm going to go on next week. Some people ripped all of the music from the game, even random things like the 2-second sound it makes when you unlock a new feature, then called an official soundtrack. I'm not sure why the called it official, but whatever. I think I have gone through most of the good songs by now (there are 16 hours worth of them, and I only downloaded it yesterday, so I haven't managed to listen to it all yet...), so I thought I'd point out a few of the better and more interesting ones.

Firstly, just because I had commented on them already here, they put the Green Hill Zone, Emerald Hill Zone, and Emerald Island Zone themes in to go with the Green Hill Zone stage. The former two are pretty much as they appeared in their respective games, but they made a cool remix of the Angel Island Zone theme, that you may have heard some of if you kept up with brawl updates, that can be found here.

Although it's not actually that great a song, they did put a Mario Tennis theme in it, which was mixed with Mario Golf themes, as they sound pretty similar.

Nintendo managed to put in songs from a very large variety of games, even within each series, as the only series that I knew all of the songs from was Pokemon. Though, I only know the Dialga and Palkia battle theme from hearing it once or twice on my sister's DS. Okay, technically I also know all of the songs from Big Brain Academy and Golden Sun, but that's only because there was only one song from each. Oh, and I would have known all of the songs from the Mario series, except I've never really played Mario Kart DS enough to recognize this.

Anyway, back to the better songs. From Legend of Zelda, most of the songs are pretty good, but I especially liked what they did with the Song of Storms. Or maybe I just like the Song of Storms... either way. The Ocarina of Time Medley is pretty good too, though.

From Kirby, I think I liked the Meta Knight's Revenge song the best, even though I've never played Kirby's Super Star.

As for the Donkey Song songs, they're all really good, but I always liked this song, from Donkey Kong Country. Also, it's not THAT good of a song, but the mix of the theme from the original Donkey Kong is at least nostalgic. And funny.

From Animal Crossing... I never really liked any of the songs that much. From my small amount of experience playing the game, I think the music is mostly just there so that playing the game doesn't feel awkward without any music, since most games, and movies too, seem weird without anything playing in the background. I think that this is the best of the eleven songs they decided to take from the series, though.

All of the Fire Emblem songs are pretty good, though I think I like the Medley the best, especially after about a minute.

Some of the music that they decided to put in seems very out of place, though. For instance, the Mii Channel theme isn't terrible, but imagine fighting to it... or the Wii shop theme, or the PictoChat theme, or the Wii Sports theme, or the Cow Racing theme from Wii Play, or the Brain Age theme, or the Big Brain Academy theme, or this. I really do not see why they felt compelled to put a song from Electroplankton in, but at least all of the other good songs make up for it. Anyway, I hope that there will be at least one decent fighting song to choose from for the Picto Chat stage, as I wouldn't be surprised in the least if these are the only songs you can choose from when fighting there.

Oh also, there's a song from Pikmin in French! I almost never played Pikmin, so I don't recognize any of the songs from it, but the lyrics in this one are funny. I'm pretty happy that they put in this song too.

That's all for now, but I'll probably post again very soon, as Jon almost caught up to me in number of posts, which I obviously can't let happen. So à bientôt!
