Mario 64 Music With NSMB "Wah"s

http://www.p4rgaming.com/?p=530

Koji Kondo, Nintendo music composer, reveals that his work on Super Mario 64 was unfinished due to the limitations of the Nintendo 64. Today, he announced the fully realized version of the soundtrack.

“When Super Mario 64 was in development, the Nintendo 64 had not been finalized,” Kondo explains, “There were extra sound channels I had used that were cut when the final version of the system was given to us.”

“One particular channel would have directly affected gameplay,” continues Kondo, “The concept was finally utilized in the New Super Mario series. The enemies dancing to the music was my idea.”

“I am sure there are people who have found unused enemy animations in Super Mario 64,” he concludes, “This would have been a very integral part of the game. Please enjoy this preview of the fully realized version of the Super Mario 64 soundtrack.”

Jeff's nightmares are reality! What other musical innovations should NSMB have when they run out of Wahs? How about faster/slower music changing enemy speed? Do any games already do that?

In this thread, we are reminded that technological limitations can make games better.

Crazy thing is I never heard the wahs until the crew brought it up, now I hear them all the time, I think I'm going crazy

That was pretty funny.

Been years since I played the first one and I don't remember wahs or dancing of any kind

Here you go.

At first I thought the video was real then by the second song I realized that it was a spoof. I'm dumb that way.

This will fuel my nightmares for a little while.

Brilliant.

It took me a second, but yeah. Wah Wah is still the worst.

1st song: "Oh jesus.... how could they change this??"

2nd song: "ohhhh okay, this is a joke. a spoof video? there are Waaay too many Wahs."

3rd song: "........... is this NOT a joke? wait... is this goddamn serious? what?!?"

4th song: "............ wait is this a joke?"

What is real?

So that blog is the video game version of...The Onion? Weird.

I think hearing that actually just shit on my memories of Super Mario 64.

Sounds like WHA-step is a real thing now. Now I want a WHA-step version of the Baldur's Gate 2: Throne of Bhaal theme.
