Super Smash Bros. Melee was my childhood game. I spent countless hours playing it, first at my cousins' place interstate, then after I begged mum and dad for a Gamecube. I'd sit in the air conditioning on hot, summer days, playing single player from scratch every time because I didn't have a memory card at first. I'd get my friends around to play it with two decent controllers and a shonky aftermarket one, and we'd play "pokémon battles", the rules being that that you couldn't use normal attacks, you had to only throw pokéballs. I thought I was pretty damn good at this game until I discovered videos of competitive play about ten years later, then I found out I was a noob compared to that. Still, I've probably put more hours into Smash Melee than any other game. I now play Smash Ultimate almost every day (finally made it to the point where I'm in and out of Elite Smash with Falco!) so I guess you can say I still love this series just as much! Though Sam always beats me when we play Smash 64, because that's *his* area of expertise! Anyway, Melee has always got a super special place for me. The soundtrack was particularly good and I've listened to it a bazillion times. The opening music is spectacular, so I put special effort into this arrangement. I hope you enjoy! -Andrew
Ah, I see, Melee is my childhood as well. I was wondering which Smash Andrew liked most as a kid. We are both melee kids. I still remember seeing the first Smash on 64 when I was little and when Melee came out I was blown away, I was only 10. The music and visuals were amazing back then. I still listen to the soundtrack today and play it on the piano. I loved Fountain of Dreams and the rock version of Brinstar and Corneria which was my favorite level, that music was burned into my memory forever. So many great scores in one game. Some of my fondest memories are also with this game.
@@Deluca-Piano I always loved the sound effects in Smash 64! I played it with my (other) cousins and had no idea what to do, but it was a lot of fun! I kept getting stomped by Kirby's up-B repeatedly and I didn't know how to deal with it, haha! -Andrew
@@SheetMusicBoss Melee had the most intense gameplay back then, I was always a Mario player and my best friends were Link, Kirby, Fox, and Captain Falcon. I can still hear Mario's hop ho sounds when he jumps and I always loved Captain Falcon's falcon PUNCH. Ultimate is the only other Smash that had the closest feel to Melee for me.
can you do sabaton-christams truce please? This is my fav song and unarguably the best Christmas song you will ever hear(and probably the first metal christmas song, too). I think the vibe would work perfectly with what you guys do.
Holy SHIT!!!! I got my request!!!! The sheet music gods have blessed me with this gift! Some of my best childhood memories are from Melee. I've been requesting this for almost 2 years now! Thank you so much Andrew and Samuel!! It was worth the wait! You make the best arrangements. I knew you'd get to it someday. Your transcriptions are always the most accurate. Melee has some of the best Nintendo arrangements I've ever heard.
Hammer flip in melee has a tiny sweetspot hitbox that isn't even worth going for because it's so weak Surely your strategy should've been to spam stone rather than arguably the worst move in the franchise?
@@sheridan5175 In retrospect, I may have been overreacting when I was little. Also, Kirby hammer flip was usually used against me. Back then whenever I mained him, I always used just his copy ability. Sometimes, I just held them in, walked off the edge and spat 'em out.
shogo sakai is an absolute GOD this, mother 3, and kirby air ride are perfect examples of how incredible he is. one of my favorite composers ever hands down, he's such a big inspiration for me
most people wont agree, but i actually like this one much more than brawls, considering for the time this game was made, this theme and game were fucking outstanding. I've walys felt brawl's theme didnt fit smash, maybe thats just me
@@airsoftluke17 ultimate theme without lyrics is also better than brawl theme, people just use the excuse "its nostalgic" for why the brawl theme is the best.
LET'S FRICKIN GOOOOOOOOO!!! Two days in a row, and you guys are on a roll. Thank you for this one as well, I especially like the harp section, it's just beautiful!!
Very true, as a competitive Ultimate player, I love this game. Only got into it during quarentine, but I’ve had a lot of fun with it, it’s by far the most creative expression of a fighting game I’ve ever played.
I thought it was star fox 64 for a second (thumbnail) but whatever this is also pretty cool... Please do any song from star fox 64 because its very nostalgic to me :)
👊Get *smashing* piano skills with SMB arrangements!
💥Sheet music: www.musicnotes.com/l/VhzMb
cool
Why isn’t this sheet music available anymore?
I swear, smash melee has some of the most epic soundtracks like this. Glad you did this one.

Wow the ''pokemon battles'' hit me hard in the nostalgia, my little brother and I used to do that all the time!!

Smash Bros never fails to have these killer openings
4 sucked ass

Nice!
0:51, for myself. You did a fantastic job recreating that part as well!
The simplest part of the piece yet the best!
I remember playing Melee on the GameCube with my brother and cousin and best friends. Good times. Thank you SMB.
The nostalgia hit me harder than Kirby's hammer flip.
So not all that hard at all then 😋😋

Gotta love the way this brings the cutscene right back, oh man the nostalgia
Hey, wait a minute. This isn't Smash Bros. This is a piano lesson!
shogo sakai is an absolute GOD
this, mother 3, and kirby air ride are perfect examples of how incredible he is. one of my favorite composers ever hands down, he's such a big inspiration for me
This opening theme always gave me chills as I saw all these beloved Nintendo characters come onto screen. This hits me so hard with nostalgia.
0:50 niceeEEeEE
The Nostalgia is beautiful 😍😢
SMB doing Melee tracks makes me so happy, very nice track
1:29 I can still hearing the "MELEEEEEEE"
most people wont agree, but i actually like this one much more than brawls, considering for the time this game was made, this theme and game were fucking outstanding. I've walys felt brawl's theme didnt fit smash, maybe thats just me
It's just you
@@sinesjoe It's not, Melee kicked Brawl's ass in terms of main themes and Final Destination themes. Brawl's FF was a mess of a song
I can understand Brawl's theme not fitting Smash as a whole, but it was perfect for the Subspace Emissary.
It’s just you ultimate player here
@@airsoftluke17 ultimate theme without lyrics is also better than brawl theme, people just use the excuse "its nostalgic" for why the brawl theme is the best.
I'm not crying you are
Thank you for this. I have always loved this opening. And to this day I can't listen to it without imitating the announcer at the end. Well done.
LET'S FRICKIN GOOOOOOOOO!!! Two days in a row, and you guys are on a roll. Thank you for this one as well, I especially like the harp section, it's just beautiful!!
Still gives me goosebumps every time, man.
Hands down the best Smash game besides Ultimate
Yep
yeah for sure, it's really cool seeing so many people still play it competitively
Very true, as a competitive Ultimate player, I love this game. Only got into it during quarentine, but I’ve had a lot of fun with it, it’s by far the most creative expression of a fighting game I’ve ever played.
Man ive loved this theme so much for so long, thank you for such a beautiful version
Keep up the great work my dude, you're just awesome
if u pay attention u can hear the announcer shouting "suuuper smash brothers .... MELEEEE!!!!"
I can picture the opening in my head as this plays
Just one thing.... INSANE 🔥🤌🏽
0:20 is my favorite part here. Really tugs the feels.
0:52 is straight 🔥 🔥 🔥
Fact
I can’t be the only one that compulsively said “SUPER SMASH BROTHERS.... MELEEEEE” at the end.
I remember seeing this Intro for the first time. I watched like 5 times in a row before even pressing Start to open the Menu once.
Great Job
I just had a nostalgia flashback. It was so real
*I WAS JUST LISTENING TO THIS SONG EARLIER WHAT-*
This brings back so much memories of being Mario each time when i was little😂

0:31 For later : )
DOOO DO DO DOOO
FIYAAAAH
I'm not THAT old, but I know Melee pretty well! I learned how to (vaguely) play Super Smash with Melee
Big missed opportunity, you really should've included the extended middle section from the smashing live version of this song
Love to hear any ōkami sheet music
Fuck this brings back some memories
0:52 hit different
Could you do super Mario land theme Tom brier style cause that would be dope if ya could
Amazingly nostalgic
I would love a cover of the Wistful Wilds theme from pikmin 2!
I thought it was star fox 64 for a second (thumbnail) but whatever this is also pretty cool...
Please do any song from star fox 64 because its very nostalgic to me :)
Melee's 20th Anniversary is less than 2 weeks away! What better way to celebrate than getting a piano tutorial on this masterpiece?

It'd truly be incredible if you made Orchestra Piece 1 from Twilight Princess
