Edit: As some have pointed out, this video contains some non-Nintendo games. My mistake! You can consider them bonus points :P How many did you guess? Let me know which tracks I should have included and maybe I'll use them in a second part :)
Was really hoping for at least 1 paper mario series song out of the 50. Like Glitzville, Tubba Blubba battle music, Champion of Destruction, Crystal Stars, Ice King battle music, etc. Maybe you could do a guess the Paper Mario songs medley at some point.
It's interesting how, if you pay attention, you can pick up on common elements so that even if you aren't familiar with a particular song, you can still guess which franchise it's from with a surprising degree of accuracy based on the style.
Or how Rare's games (specifically in the case of DK64, Banjo-Kazooie, and Conker's Bad Fur Day) all share similar styles in music. So when the one from Banjo-Kazooie came on (a game which I never played), I felt it sounded similar to the DK64 soundtrack, but knew it wasn't from that, so I was correctly able to deduce that it was from Banjo.
Three and even maybe four KH games were Nintendo exclusives for the longest time after all. Those weren't really battle themes, but that's nitpicking from me.
Well, the entire main-series of Kingdom Hearts was just announced for Switch! Though I do believe that happened a couple days after this video was released...
Ok, so for Number 7, I was actually playing BOTW with this on in the background... yeah... you can probably see why I'm now calming down from a panic attack.

Spoiler warning for this post. You have been warned. This list had loads of Zelda (especially Breath of the Wild, though there were others from the franchise) and Mario Galaxy (along with some other Mario series, but it was more Galaxy), with surprisingly few Pokemon songs, very little Kirby, very little Donkey Kong, only one song from Metroid, no Star Fox, no Fire Emblem, no F-Zero, and no Animal Crossing. Meanwhile, it included the overworld map theme (not even main theme as it's titled in the video) from Final Fantasy, along with Dearly Beloved. Neither of which I'd call Nintendo music. Same goes for Banjo Kazooie; while the game was originally on the N64, it's a Rare game that is now owned by Microsoft and I'd probably not consider it a Nintendo song. The only other song on here that is debatable if it's from a Nintendo game or not: Vampire Killer. Yes, it's from CastleVania 1, which was indeed on NES, and it's been remastered on a lot of other CastleVania games, but the CastleVania franchise as a whole feels more like its own separate thing to me at this point. The first few CastleVanias, and even the entire GBA and DS era, were on Nintendo console, but I don't know if they really count as "Nintendo" series since they're made by Konami and some of the most popular and famous ones were on other consoles. Just my thoughts on it; I think the list would have been much better with a more diverse pool of franchises, maybe limiting it to six or seven songs from a given franchise at most and no more than two from any individual property (for example - no more than two out of Mystery Dungeon, no more than two out of Mario Kart, no more than two out of Majora's Mask, no more than two out of Breath of the Wild, no more than two out of Galaxy, etc). I also think future ones should leave out games that were only on a Nintendo console and aren't an IP owned by Nintendo or one of their subsidiaries (eg: CastleVania, Final Fantasy, Kingdom Hearts, Banjo Kazooie; Xenoblade is owned by a subsidiary of Nintendo, so it totally counts.). Also for future entries, I felt a few of the songs were so short you barely had time to process which song it would even be, or it was like 3-4 seconds of introduction before reaching the actual melody I'd recognize. I enjoyed trying to guess each one, but some of them I knew but it hadn't gotten to the part I actually would've recognized. Maybe extending the songs by roughly 2-3 seconds if they're not immediately recognizable would be a good idea as well. I loved the video, despite the long post. I mostly just want to see future ones that are a bit more diverse while also being more accurate about what does and does not "count" as a Nintendo song. Perhaps a second series for songs from famous non-Nintendo games is in order as well to include things like Final Fantasy, Halo, Kingdom Hearts, Devil May Cry, etc.?

I personally have never played Star Fox, Fire Emblem, F-Zero or Animal Crossing. As for the couple songs that were not Nintendo franchises: my mistake! I should have done better research. How long would the ideal time per song be in your opinion? 10 seconds, 15 seconds, 20 seconds? Indeed some of them I made short on purpose because they are very recognisable (eg Peach's Castle in SM64). I'm glad you still enjoyed it though! Thanks again for the feedback. If you want to discuss this further and maybe give ideas for future videos, I'd love for you to join our Discord server! (link is in the description)
@@PianoMan333 I'd say maybe 3-5 seconds minimum per song (Peach's Castle may be recognizable quickly, but it can take a second or two to process and name it. By the time my brain had registered the full name of the song, it was already on-screen). For others that aren't as immediately recognizable, I'd say 8-10 is a good sweet spot, or 15 if it takes roughly that long to get to the melody people would immediately know. Of course, you could also just choose the most famous parts of the melodies since you're only doing shorter snippits of each song. I do also highly recommend splitting this into two series - Nintendo songs and non-Nintendo game songs. There are loads of games with fantastic songs that aren't Nintendo-owned. Ori and the Blind Forest, CastleVania (and its spiritual successor, Bloodstained), Dark Souls, Hollow Knight, Halo, Elder Scrolls series, Banjo Kazooie, and Square Enix properties all immediately come to the forefront of my mind, and there are plenty of other ones. I'd be happy to discuss this further on Discord, but I can't join until later on tonight at the earliest. I'll send you a message from my Discord account when I get back home; I'm currently on break at work.
The thing these were all Nintendo ideas now that I read your comment that were sold to other companies because Nintendo didn't one have the staff to make them all and two some of them didn't seem super profitable to them at the time so they were sold to other companies as a result to back up your info
I got a little less than half. But after 43 when the notes were scrolling down, I could feel my eyes dilate, then the music hit and I was very aware of my whole face brightening. Well done.
I’ve been playing BOTW for three years and the guardian theme has become the theme of free loot for me by now. Back in the early days hearing that theme sent primal fear down my spine, especially if I couldn’t find the damn thing.
You even got pokemon colosseum 🥺💕 it’s a small thing but nobody talks about that game or it’s sequel anymore but it’s one of my childhood favorites, I got so much joy hearing that song
I nearly cried when I heard number 26. I lost my copy of explorers of Sky when I was small and it was after I saw the ending. I need to get the virtual console on the Wii U so I can play it again and not lose it again because that literally felt like my character just left my partner pokemon forever.
My 11 year old and I are loving all of these videos! He's better at the video game ones but we also love the movies and whatnot. Thank you for making these!
I would love to see a second part of this! I really liked trying to guess the themes. Most of the time, I wasn't able to guess the exact name of the theme but I always knew which franchise it was from
great quiz!! was multitasking so i lost track of my score around song #30 but i had fun with it nonetheless! song #26 was a punch to the gut though lmao
Recognized maybe 35-40 of the themes, could name some 25-30 of them. I am especially proud on Rainbow Road, as I identified it as a Mario Kart track on the first chord, and knew the exact track on the second chord. I recognized and named all SMG tracks. I failed to name the SMG2 track, but I knew it was from the Galaxy games. I knew Good Egg Galaxy from the opening fanfare alone. I recognized most Zelda themes, but only named the BoTW ones consistently (
Always pleasantly surprised whenever I hear somebody bring up Pkmn Colosseum or XD. Fantastic soundtrack for those. I'm a bit sad that some game series like Metroid, F-zero and Star Fox are just as left out and abandoned as by Nintendo lol..
You want to make the fans of an obscure Nintendo series happy and throw off the ones that think of Zelda or Mario? Use No More Heroes in the next one along with more from the Metroid series.
@@SirSlush_ same goes with days and recoded on ds and chain of memories on gba. And recently melody of memory on switch. Not to mention the cloud versions of all the games that are coming soon to switch
Decent spread but the constant zelda and mario tracks made it a bit too easy. Little disappointed there was only like... One from a few games. Including metroid which is famous for its ambience. No F Zero or starfox or earthbound. I'm certain tossing in a bit more variety with your next list will make it more challenging :)
One of them that is labeled as Zelda is actually from Mario 3, but that's a mistake that basically everyone makes, so I really don't blame them. (Mario 3-World 3)
Non-Nintendo Games in this: Final Fantasy I (Squaresoft, modernly Square Enix) Professor Layton And The Curious Village (Level-5) Banjo-Kazooie (Rare) Kingdom Hearts (Squaresoft, modernly Square Enix) Castlevania (Konami) That's not even including second party like Kirby and Pokémon.
Was really hoping for at least 1 paper mario series song out of the 50. Like Glitzville, Tubba Blubba battle music, Champion of Destruction, Crystal Stars, Ice King battle music, etc. Maybe you could do a guess the Paper Mario songs medley at some point.
25 right. Although I don't know why you included songs that aren't from Nintendo on this list about Nintendo songs (Kingdom Hearts being a good example)
@@PianoMan333 Final Fantasy is a bit of a cheat too, but at least that particular title was originally on the NES. Same goes for Castlevania. A simple fix would be to reword the title a bit.
@@beattyc42 Chain of Memories was on GBA if I remember correctly. The original KH title was released on the PS2 though and the series as a whole is by Square Enix.

I couldn’t find the Ceremonial Trident for the longest time and I spent hours in Zora’s domain during the night, and I’ll tell you one thing: That Zora’s Domain music was not right. But Mipha being my favourite champion and the only one I sometimes don’t skip the cutscenes for even after seeing them 10+ times, I knew Mipha’s theme was spot-on.
Alright so here I shall text this before I found out if I am correct. 1: Kirby, no challenge 😎 2: I am pretty sure it's super mario Galaxy 3: what the frick is this 😕 how was that Zelda?! I only played 4 swords and watched botw 4: Luigi's mansion 5: I only played country returns 6: popular, super Mario 64 and I heard it in an omori meme. 7: speaking of botw 8: I made a Mii and named it rychfoaeef, don't feel like checking to see if I was right and I was 6 don't judge me. 9: sounds familiar 🤔. Oh 10: don't know. I barely played Galaxy 1, I did a quarter of 2, got stuck. 11: don't know. Never played or watched Xenoblade, I hope the fandom doesn't attack me 😱! 12: I think it's super Mario bros Wii in the ice stage. 🤔😟. Don't play 64 games 😅. And yes I played 64 on 3ds. 13: not sure but guessing earthbound sounds kinda like victory theme. Don't play FF never new sephiroth til I looked it up after reveal. 14: didn't know, don't know, won't try. 15: I really am missing out on a bunch of Nintendo games huh? Don't know. I feel stupid but I stopped watching and playing Pokemon after mystery dungeon. 16: banjo and kazooi? Don't know heard stage song, don't have or plan to have dlc. Woah I got that right 😹 never heard of game, or still know. Might look it up when I'm done 17: y'know? This is long, I might stop at 25 unless someone says keep going. I like to entertain people 🙂 Mario? Thought so. 18: 2 seconds in Zelda ez. 19:either Zelda music cutscene in a game or Mario Galaxy 🤔. My eyes hurt I'm getting tired. If you want me to suffer say keep going tonight. Nice Mario is kinda easy 20: duck hunt or banjo and kazooi, probably second one. it was pokemon and I barely know much of Pokemon. 21: star fox? Don't watch any games of that so it's an absolute guess, going blind. Back when it just came out it looked cool but then I forgot about it, I'm a teenager not an adult so just making sure no confusion. 22: Mario 64, don't know what stage tho. Oh well still right kinda 23: sounds like a Zelda game. I am a serious Metroid fan and I'm ashamed I got it wrong but at the same time I only watched a little bit of the old games, watched/played some prime games, but I played and beat Samus returns and watched fusion. 24: the first few seconds I was confused, sounded like Dora the explorer intro song, but it's Mario. 25: finally, I can rest now. confused at first but then I heard 7:36 and I remembered playing Mario kart 7 and soooo. Ez
I haven't played as much Nintendo, or anything else, but my favorite themes are in the dark cave, and the one in the burned tower in Pokemon gold/silver, the Tenda Village, and the fight intro in earthbound, I missed the gold/silver bike theme, and only got the classic Mario one...
Havent seen professor layton on any other console other than nintendo.. Castlevania was originally released on nintendo. As was final fantasy's 1 through 6. Banjo Kazooie was released on N64... 10 years before it got a release on xbox 360
4 non-nintendo (almost 6, but monolith soft was bought out by nintendo just before they made xenoblade, so those would TECHNICALLY be nintendo songs but they didnt really have much of a hand in xenoblade's development to my knowledge, so I've always considered it non-nintendo
Random fun fact for those those were originally concept ideas from Nintendo it just they never actually went forward with finally finally fantasy and kingdom hearts were some concept thrown around at Nintendo back in the day some of the other ones as well but they never gained any traction at Nintendo so they sold the ideas to other companies
But chain of memories and dream drop distance are nintendo kingdom hearts games :) There are other games in the KH franchise than the 3 mainline games (Seriously the KH rabbit hole is LARGE)
That was a fun video. Although I must point out that some of them aren't really Nintendo, such as Final Fantasy, Kingdom Hearts and Castlevania. Also, I'm surprised there were no songs from Animal Crossing, Fire Emblem, F-Zero, Star Fox or Super Smash Bros.
Edit: As some have pointed out, this video contains some non-Nintendo games. My mistake! You can consider them bonus points :P
How many did you guess?
Let me know which tracks I should have included and maybe I'll use them in a second part :)
Slide - Super Mario 64
Was really hoping for at least 1 paper mario series song out of the 50. Like Glitzville, Tubba Blubba battle music, Champion of Destruction, Crystal Stars, Ice King battle music, etc. Maybe you could do a guess the Paper Mario songs medley at some point.
I got about 4
I got like 2 😂
Stopped at 25 and technically got 13 right look in the comments
Number 7 was recognized not by just being a Zelda ost, or the sheer anxiety from hearing it, but all of those notes that look as if randomly placed.
Exactly and its the same instrument too so my first reaction is OHFUCK
I only recognized it because i heard it literally the last week or so xD
The anxiety got me!
I haven't played BOTW that much in the last couple of years.
But this song. This *fear*.
It stays with you forever.
Bruh I thought it was trainer battle theme
the guardian battle theme triggered me and I was panicking for a sec-
lolololol
Started hyperventilating.
Same, hahaha
WHERE THE F IS IT COMING FROM?!?!?!
Seriously, that is a great way to describe what living with anxiety disorder is like.
I felt the need to get my shield ready, lol. And make sure my horse wasn't in range of the attack.
It's interesting how, if you pay attention, you can pick up on common elements so that even if you aren't familiar with a particular song, you can still guess which franchise it's from with a surprising degree of accuracy based on the style.
Yeah exactly! I guessed the 48th one was from Mario Kart even tho i never heard it before!
Yes like for the lugis mansion main theme, I've played it like once before with my friend but I guessed it right before the end
Or how Rare's games (specifically in the case of DK64, Banjo-Kazooie, and Conker's Bad Fur Day) all share similar styles in music. So when the one from Banjo-Kazooie came on (a game which I never played), I felt it sounded similar to the DK64 soundtrack, but knew it wasn't from that, so I was correctly able to deduce that it was from Banjo.
It's because of the Composer's style really.
@@point-five-oh6249 I thought that went without saying.
Having this on in the background as relaxing music is great.
Edit: Nevermind. Got to number 7.
Instant panic attack
lmfao
I was playing BOTW when I heard that. Nearly died
Bro, run!
(Distant beeping)
"Know these nintendo themes".....kingdom heart and ff1 battle themes starts playing
FF1 first came out on the Nintendo, while not being a Nintendo property I can understand the overlap.
Kingdom Hearts though... that confused me.
I think it's a mistake cuz maybe Kingdom Hearts is available on Switch... maybe...??? Kinda of a strech but I don't have a Swtich so don't blame me
Three and even maybe four KH games were Nintendo exclusives for the longest time after all.
Those weren't really battle themes, but that's nitpicking from me.

@@DeuxLeftHands I think its because there was a kingdom hearts game on the Gameboy, iirc

I do also highly recommend splitting this into two series - Nintendo songs and non-Nintendo game songs. There are loads of games with fantastic songs that aren't Nintendo-owned. Ori and the Blind Forest, CastleVania (and its spiritual successor, Bloodstained), Dark Souls, Hollow Knight, Halo, Elder Scrolls series, Banjo Kazooie, and Square Enix properties all immediately come to the forefront of my mind, and there are plenty of other ones.
I'd be happy to discuss this further on Discord, but I can't join until later on tonight at the earliest. I'll send you a message from my Discord account when I get back home; I'm currently on break at work.
Man just analyzed a whole video to say of its not a nintendo owned ip it's not a nintendo theme New Funky Mode
The thing these were all Nintendo ideas now that I read your comment that were sold to other companies because Nintendo didn't one have the staff to make them all and two some of them didn't seem super profitable to them at the time so they were sold to other companies as a result to back up your info
I got a little less than half. But after 43 when the notes were scrolling down, I could feel my eyes dilate, then the music hit and I was very aware of my whole face brightening. Well done.
Gym leader, bike, and N's Farewell were very nostalgic. Thank you for including it here.
I’ve been playing BOTW for three years and the guardian theme has become the theme of free loot for me by now. Back in the early days hearing that theme sent primal fear down my spine, especially if I couldn’t find the damn thing.
exactly like when I first got the hylian shield I could not parry for the life of me and broke it
@@spritewitha2 Ack! Worst nightmare! Does it respawn after you break it? I’ve never had to go back and check for it yet.
@@artsyfoxie you can but it from a merchant after you finish the side quest "from the ground up"
@@spritewitha2 Awesome! I didn’t know that, but I have completed the quest.
I love how many people saw the notes for number 7 and immediately started to cringe and hide.
This is the comment where I point out that I recognized gourmet race before it even started playing.
You even got pokemon colosseum 🥺💕 it’s a small thing but nobody talks about that game or it’s sequel anymore but it’s one of my childhood favorites, I got so much joy hearing that song
:D you should check out my other arrangements from Colosseum and XD!
Okay, but when it played Professor Layton, I almost choked cuz I hardly hear anyone talk about it😂
Professor Layton was pretty popular back in the DS days. It's sad people don't really talk about it anymore because they were great
14:24 this song still gives me shivers down the spine, that level was scary as a kid xD
I haven’t gotten to that song what game are you referring to.
I choked up when "I don't want to say goodbye" started playing 😭😭😭 I need the switch remake of that game Pronto!
Guardian battle gives me chills and i started to panic and almost and a heart attack 😰
Fight or flight
From playing the game. #7 put my brain into panic mode. Love this
I’m so proud of knowing 45 the exact song names and the games from where they are originated
I nearly cried when I heard number 26. I lost my copy of explorers of Sky when I was small and it was after I saw the ending. I need to get the virtual console on the Wii U so I can play it again and not lose it again because that literally felt like my character just left my partner pokemon forever.
My son loves these videos, we watch them together before school, we get most right
My 11 year old and I are loving all of these videos! He's better at the video game ones but we also love the movies and whatnot. Thank you for making these!
Glad to hear that! :)
1:46 *runs away in fear*
*You are paralyzed by terror and cannot move*
Didn’t expect professor Layton in here! Nice vid
I would love to see a second part of this!
I really liked trying to guess the themes. Most of the time, I wasn't able to guess the exact name of the theme but I always knew which franchise it was from
I like how a solid third of the entries are from Super Mario Galaxy
This brought me back to when I used to play legend of zelda games whith my dad thank you
Hearing 'I Don't Want to Say Goodbye' hit me right in the heart. That was my first ever Pokemon game, y'know? I'd recognize it y the first few notes.
great quiz!! was multitasking so i lost track of my score around song #30 but i had fun with it nonetheless! song #26 was a punch to the gut though lmao
Recognized maybe 35-40 of the themes, could name some 25-30 of them.
I am especially proud on Rainbow Road, as I identified it as a Mario Kart track on the first chord, and knew the exact track on the second chord.
I recognized and named all SMG tracks. I failed to name the SMG2 track, but I knew it was from the Galaxy games.
I knew Good Egg Galaxy from the opening fanfare alone.
I recognized most Zelda themes, but only named the BoTW ones consistently (
1:46 Hyrule Castle flashbacks
Hey it really would be cool for you to do a Cynthia Champion battle theme from Pokémon Diamond and pearl
Coming soon!
Always pleasantly surprised whenever I hear somebody bring up Pkmn Colosseum or XD. Fantastic soundtrack for those.
I'm a bit sad that some game series like Metroid, F-zero and Star Fox are just as left out and abandoned as by Nintendo lol..
They're coming in part 2!
@@PianoMan333 Wait really!
You want to make the fans of an obscure Nintendo series happy and throw off the ones that think of Zelda or Mario? Use No More Heroes in the next one along with more from the Metroid series.
@@PianoMan333 don't forget Splatoon!
NEW METROID
1:47 i felt prepared to use revali’s gale and alt tab out when i heard this
at 1:49 the song actually scared me a little because i was playing breath of the wild at the time
thank you for doing this vid
Thanks for watching it :)
i love how you put one of the best nintendo songs ever (in my opinion) as 35.!
When I heard number 11 it made me emotional. Now number 40 on the other hand, took me buy surprise. For those of you who know, you know
YOU CANT JUST DO NUMBER 26 LIKE THAT IM GONNA CRYYYYY
Final Fantasy and Kindom Hearts, my favourite *NINTENDO* Games
FF1 first came out on the Nintendo, while not being a Nintendo property I can understand the overlap.
Kingdom Hearts though... that confused me.
Dream Drop Distance is a 3DS title, apparently that counts.
@@SirSlush_ same goes with days and recoded on ds and chain of memories on gba. And recently melody of memory on switch. Not to mention the cloud versions of all the games that are coming soon to switch
I was really proud of myself when I recognized Luigi's Mainsion before the obvious part started.
Same!
number 10 gave me so much nostalgia
Zanza the Divine, that's a bold choice
With just piano it was hard to reconize
Number 6... A classic forever and forever a classic
Edit -
Number 10 as well
i had no idea what 40 was until 12:29 and it hit me instantly
Decent spread but the constant zelda and mario tracks made it a bit too easy. Little disappointed there was only like... One from a few games. Including metroid which is famous for its ambience. No F Zero or starfox or earthbound. I'm certain tossing in a bit more variety with your next list will make it more challenging :)
One of them that is labeled as Zelda is actually from Mario 3, but that's a mistake that basically everyone makes, so I really don't blame them. (Mario 3-World 3)
I was also expecting a Punch-Out!! Song but there was mostly Mario and Zelda.
No fire emblem either
1:46
That was a shot of pure PTSD
Lmao I love how I recognized the 1 kirby song and was mostly clueless with all the others
Non-Nintendo Games in this:
Final Fantasy I (Squaresoft, modernly Square Enix)
Professor Layton And The Curious Village (Level-5)
Banjo-Kazooie (Rare)
Kingdom Hearts (Squaresoft, modernly Square Enix)
Castlevania (Konami)
That's not even including second party like Kirby and Pokémon.
he was most likely talking about games released on nintendo consoles
@@destiny1358 Kingdom Hearts has never been on a Nintendo Console (the game, not the franchise in general)
@@Justsomedudeokay melody of memory?
@@Justsomedudeokay but yeah, i wouldnt call it a typical game associated with nintendo either
@@Justsomedudeokay It was the version from Chain of Memories. Not sure why it wasn't labeled as such, but it was.
Was really hoping for at least 1 paper mario series song out of the 50. Like Glitzville, Tubba Blubba battle music, Champion of Destruction, Crystal Stars, Ice King battle music, etc. Maybe you could do a guess the Paper Mario songs medley at some point.
The Ice King music always gets me pumped.
Thank you for playing with me feelings.

25 right. Although I don't know why you included songs that aren't from Nintendo on this list about Nintendo songs (Kingdom Hearts being a good example)
I never played it myself and was under the impression it was a Nintendo game... Should have done better research!
@@PianoMan333 Final Fantasy is a bit of a cheat too, but at least that particular title was originally on the NES. Same goes for Castlevania. A simple fix would be to reword the title a bit.
Kingdom herats: dream drop was released on the Nintendo 3ds.
@@beattyc42 Chain of Memories was on GBA if I remember correctly. The original KH title was released on the PS2 though and the series as a whole is by Square Enix.
@@beattyc42 Okay, but the song comes from the original Kingdom Hearts, and also Kingdom Hearts isn't made by Nintendo, it's made by Square Enix

Nice video! Maybe next time add some more Kirby
I started panicking and looking around at 1:46 when that theme kicked in. PTSD i tell ya
Waluigi Pinball felt so good to hear
11:03 put a big goofy smile on my face
The Guardian Battle music from BOTW triggered my fight or flight response for a second
WOW!!!! PRO MOVE!!! YOU PUT THE SMW ENDING AT THE END OF THE VID! PRO MOVE
How did you get Mipha's Theme so right and the Zora theme so wrong...
I couldn’t find the Ceremonial Trident for the longest time and I spent hours in Zora’s domain during the night, and I’ll tell you one thing: That Zora’s Domain music was not right. But Mipha being my favourite champion and the only one I sometimes don’t skip the cutscenes for even after seeing them 10+ times, I knew Mipha’s theme was spot-on.
Thank you! It was great!! I guessed all zelda and mario galaxy songs!
Me: Hears all the Mario Galaxy songs *dies of nostalgia*
1:46 I JUMPED
Alright so here I shall text this before I found out if I am correct.
1: Kirby, no challenge 😎
2: I am pretty sure it's super mario Galaxy
3: what the frick is this 😕 how was that Zelda?! I only played 4 swords and watched botw
4: Luigi's mansion
5: I only played country returns
6: popular, super Mario 64 and I heard it in an omori meme.
7: speaking of botw
8: I made a Mii and named it rychfoaeef, don't feel like checking to see if I was right and I was 6 don't judge me.
9: sounds familiar 🤔. Oh
10: don't know. I barely played Galaxy 1, I did a quarter of 2, got stuck.
11: don't know. Never played or watched Xenoblade, I hope the fandom doesn't attack me 😱!
12: I think it's super Mario bros Wii in the ice stage. 🤔😟. Don't play 64 games 😅. And yes I played 64 on 3ds.
13: not sure but guessing earthbound sounds kinda like victory theme. Don't play FF never new sephiroth til I looked it up after reveal.
14: didn't know, don't know, won't try.
15: I really am missing out on a bunch of Nintendo games huh? Don't know. I feel stupid but I stopped watching and playing Pokemon after mystery dungeon.
16: banjo and kazooi? Don't know heard stage song, don't have or plan to have dlc. Woah I got that right 😹 never heard of game, or still know. Might look it up when I'm done
17: y'know? This is long, I might stop at 25 unless someone says keep going. I like to entertain people 🙂 Mario? Thought so.
18: 2 seconds in Zelda ez.
19:either Zelda music cutscene in a game or Mario Galaxy 🤔. My eyes hurt I'm getting tired. If you want me to suffer say keep going tonight. Nice Mario is kinda easy
20: duck hunt or banjo and kazooi, probably second one. it was pokemon and I barely know much of Pokemon.
21: star fox? Don't watch any games of that so it's an absolute guess, going blind. Back when it just came out it looked cool but then I forgot about it, I'm a teenager not an adult so just making sure no confusion.
22: Mario 64, don't know what stage tho. Oh well still right kinda
23: sounds like a Zelda game. I am a serious Metroid fan and I'm ashamed I got it wrong but at the same time I only watched a little bit of the old games, watched/played some prime games, but I played and beat Samus returns and watched fusion.
24: the first few seconds I was confused, sounded like Dora the explorer intro song, but it's Mario.
25: finally, I can rest now. confused at first but then I heard 7:36 and I remembered playing Mario kart 7 and soooo. Ez
is ice you mention it. If you have time and want to try something new I recommend you to play Xenoblade

The super Mario bros mumbo jumbo and vs Kirby?
Number 1: Is Gourmet Race
Me: *visible excitement*
Number 16: is banjo overture
Me: relaxing
Number 7: Hello
Me: NO
I haven't played as much Nintendo, or anything else, but my favorite themes are in the dark cave, and the one in the burned tower in Pokemon gold/silver, the Tenda Village, and the fight intro in earthbound, I missed the gold/silver bike theme, and only got the classic Mario one...
F-Zero, Earthbound, and Punch Out songs would've been nice to hear, but oh well.
Too much Pokemon and Zelda.

4 non-nintendo (almost 6, but monolith soft was bought out by nintendo just before they made xenoblade, so those would TECHNICALLY be nintendo songs
but they didnt really have much of a hand in xenoblade's development to my knowledge, so I've always considered it non-nintendo
Random fun fact for those those were originally concept ideas from Nintendo it just they never actually went forward with finally finally fantasy and kingdom hearts were some concept thrown around at Nintendo back in the day some of the other ones as well but they never gained any traction at Nintendo so they sold the ideas to other companies
Where was star fox? XD
