So what music do people want to be in
Smash 4, then? I was just thinking of what
Mega Man songs could be included, and there's a lot to choose from. Assuming we're limited to Classic, then aside from the more-or-less-already-confirmed
"Skull Castle 1/2" from
Mega Man 2, I think
Bomb Man's theme from
Mega Man [1],
Skull Castle 3/4 from
Mega Man 3,
Dr. Cossack Stage 1/2 from
Mega Man 4 Dark Man's Castle from
Mega Man 5,
the intro stage or
Wily Stage 1 from
Mega Man 7,
any one of Tengu Man's themes from
Mega Man 8 or
Mega Man & Bass,
the intro stage or
Wily Stage 1 from
Mega Man 8,
the intro museum stage or
King's stage theme from
Mega Man & Bass,
"We're the Robots" from
Mega Man 9 and
"Endless Struggle" should make it in. Admittedly, most of these are castle themes, but hell, it's a Wily stage anyway.
If we're
not limited to that, there's tons more to choose from. Obvious choices for me would be
the ruined highway or
Sigma Stage 1 from
X,
the Flutter vs. Gesellschaft theme from
Legends (used as Volnutt's theme in
Tatsunoko vs. Capcom),
Mega Man Battle Network's theme (remixed with a stage theme here for an
Onimusha fighting game),
"Departure" from
Zero 2,
"Green Grass Gradation" or
"Black Burn" from
ZX, et cetera.
Also, Snake has to make it in.
The only thing I know for real is that the
rules of nature state
it has to be this way. "Mercenary" might also be nice to have. I'd be great if we could properly have
the Metal Gear Solid theme; shame about the legal issues.
With regards to
Sonic, I hope they focus
less on the vocal themes and
more on stage themes. Having almost nothing but vocal themes in
Brawl was highly disappointing;
we can do so much better than that,
in all honesty,
without resorting to using them. And that's just the more recent titles;
we can look further back. Hell, it's a
Lost World stage,
use Lost World's theme! (That probably wasn't what you were expecting!
These two probably are, and are shoe-ins.)
Other than that, I really hope there's a
Xenoblade stage (even if there's not a character). The music's too good to pass up on. "
Gaur Plains", "
Colony 9",
some of the battle themes,
"Engage the Enemy",
"Unfinished Battle"...
Looking more at
this series proper -
Smash Bros. itself -
either of the Break the Targets themes that
weren't Brawl's would be appreciated, or something that's similarly catchy, sporty and energetic (sorry,
Brawl's circus music didn't do it for me). Also, while I expect both of the Final Destination themes from
Melee and
Brawl to return,
the N64 rendition would be nice to see return, just for how different it is. Maybe
the N64 Battlefield theme, too... or for something that
doesn't have a corresponding
Melee/
Brawl stage,
Meta Crystal should be used for every Metal <Character> theme in Classic Mode, or perhaps Meta Crystal should be made a stage proper (as kinda unremarkable as it is).
So yeah, if you actually listened to all that, I applaud you. If you didn't, click a few random links, you might be pleasantly surprised. But regardless, that's what kind of music
I want to see; what kind of music do
you want?
