My first go at an arrangement is the Wii sports resort title theme.
Assuming it's good enough, could somebody transfer my sibelius 7 files into Finale and upload it for me? I'm having trouble with technology and such :S
Below = link to the score/audio on my youtube account. Let me know what you think! :D
(P.S. My sincerest apologies to the moderators I annoyed a while ago, I was very confused with how to do anything :S xx)
Edit: Also added a Chargestone Cave Piano Duet (Pokemon Black/White) to the channel if you want to check it out below :)
Edit 2: and a Battle resort Piano Duet (OR/AS) too :)
Edit 3: Waltzy Piano Duet version of Apple Woods from PMD2
Edit 4: Pokemon DPP Surfing theme (Piano Duet)
Edit 5: I'm getting carried away now XD here's a Piano Trio of the 3DS Mii Maker Theme :)
I took a listen at Battle Resort and the Wii Resorts Menu Theme, and both of them sound great! I like how Battle Resort has more of a calmer feel to it. I'm not sure if you excluded some stuff to add more to that feeling, but the bass sounds more involved, and some parts are rolled. Although it's in the harmony originally, maybe you can consider putting a tremolo for some of the tied whole notes. If you do, you can also try experimenting with the dynamics for it or make it a feathered tremolo
Aside from that, there seems to be another part starting at m16 that's omitted. It's kind of hard to discern from everything else, but it sounds like some kind of percussion instrument and I believe it's the counter melody. Perhaps the LH for the Primo part could play it. Once again, nice job :3
Thanks Zeila! All of those points are great and I'll add them straight away :) I didn't use the original as a reference, which is why I missed a couple of things like that.
How are you arranging these? Do you use a midi as a basis?
I'm using sibelius 7 and just writing it by ear :)
I'm confused... then what do you mean by this?

Oh right! Sorry, I didn't make that clear :P I meant that I didn't look up/listen to the original song when I was arranging it because I was just writing it from memory.
Dang these are good
Thanks, dude :D I put a lot of work into it! Especially the key changing madness of wii sports XD
Original Wii Sports Title Screen musics!! Not to be confused with the Resort one I did a while ago. Check it out beloooow.
I've arranged most of the original Wii Sports soundtrack over some time and I'm thinking of grouping them together into one OST video (when I've finished the rest). Does that interest anyone? I don't know if people love Wii Sports as much as I do XD
Also added Bouldergeist - Super Mario Galaxy 2 (Piano Duet). Somebody asked for it a while back and I never put it up so it may have been done already but oh well. It won't hurt :) Link below to the score/audio on mi youtubes :D
Dude Wii Sports is the bomb. Doesn't matter how you upload, just put 'em up somehow lol
There are loads of short jingles for the game intros/wins/replays and stuff so I'll put those together into one big score. Any particularly interesting pieces that work by themselves I'll do separately. I'll hopefully get most of it up at the weekend (on holiday currently).
It isn't nintendo but a couple of you may find this interesting. My jazz arrangement of the Gears of War death theme:

Quiet Forest - Kirby 64
Somebody asked for this a while ago and it's probably already been done but hey ho. Link below to the video.
Route 210 (Day). Slightly jazzier version than the original. My thanks to dajwxp for his awesome score that I used as a basis for the primo part! :D My version should be very playable too (assuming there's two people).
Sandgem Town (Day) theme for two pianos!
Dragon's Den - Pokemon G/S Jazzed up a bit....
Twinleaf Town - Jazz Piano Version
Having fun with a funky tune from Sinnoh
Bicycle Theme from Black/White jazzed up (as usual)

You're really good at arranging, dude! I can't wait to see what else you do! :D

Quote from: LeviR.star on December 03, 2016, 01:42:49 PMI can't wait to see what else you do! :D
Probably more pokemon stuff but I'm open to any suggestions!
Mystery Dungeon Mt. Steel!! One of my favourites!!
Update: Bespinben has also done this (very well, if I may add) but I didn't know before I did it so I'm putting this up anyway. Whoops
Edit: Now Day Theme (Two Pianos) from Pokemon Ranch as well! Some cool guitar noodling transcribed for piano :)
Night Theme from My Pokemon Ranch! Duet style!
With this one, I've tried to stay very true to the original so it's less jazzy than usual ;) I'm going to start on the day theme now (which is a bit harder by the looks of it).
I've been waiting for a Pokemon Ranch Day theme arrangement for such a long time! Though I won't have another person to play with, this really pleasant!
Quote from: Taser9090 on December 25, 2016, 03:09:46 PMI've been waiting for a Pokemon Ranch Day theme arrangement for such a long time!
Me too! That's why I did it myself. I thought I was the only one XD
Quote from: Taser9090 on December 25, 2016, 03:09:46 PMThough I won't have another person to play with, this really pleasant!
Yeah, it is a shame. I'd love to do a lot of stuff but there aren't many people near me who want to play (never mind having two pianos) :P
Route 6 from Pokemon Black/White for Two Pianos! Cheers to Dr Pamplemousse for his score as that was my starting point :)
Pokemon Colosseum Time!!!
Main Menu:
Cipher Admin Battle:
More wii sports resort! Main Menu theme this time :D
Cipher Lab/Shadow Pokemon Lab - Pokemon Colosseum. Much jazz, very wow.
Mission - Pokemon Ranger: Shadows of Almia! Nice and happy marching time! For Two Pianos.
Stealing from kecleon... eek...
For two pianos as usual ;)

This sounds terrific! Just how I remember it. Ah, it's been so long...
It should be in Bb major, though.
Quote from: Latios212 on January 11, 2017, 04:45:20 PMIt should be in Bb major, though.
I thought it was XD It shall be adjusted accordingly :)
Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games: table tennis for one performer :D
Wii Fit Plaza. Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
2 more Menus from Wii Fit. A Piano Solo and one for Two Pianos shoved together.
Megahammer from Super Mario Galaxy 2! Another solo....might be making it a habit now :P (fingers crossed)
In the sky - guardian signs!
Crystal Crossing - Pokemon Mystery Dungeon 2!
Trainer School - Pokemon Colosseum
No point naming the game anymore

Gear Station - BW
Much Jazzy. My favourite version of the battle tower theme.
The Jazz King. Veilstone City.
Create A Sim (Sim Time Sim Place) - Sims 2 - Piano Solo
Sims 3 - Buy Mode
Also some Lavender Town Jazz
Almost went missing for a month there! I'm not at home so I can't do much/anything extravagant but I've thrown this together :D Oak's Lab - Red/Blue for Easy Jazz Piano Solo!
Should I do more of these? Let me know on here or youtube or whatever ;)
Giratina Battle Jazz Arrangement.... Yes you read that correctly! I've gone bonkers.
Relaxing Eterna City Jazz
Victory Road GSC - Jazz Piano Cover
Delfino Square - Mario Kart DS (Easy Jazz Version)
Honestly, this one is my least favourite of recent times. Look at some of the previous ones for more inspired renditions.
If people want more mario/mariokart/jazz stuff then let me know.
In the spirit of NSM, I've reduced my very difficult two piano NSMBW Desert Theme into an easy piano solo.
I've also completed a request of Benjamin's for Final Bowser from the same game.
More Sims 3! Buy Mode from the Late Night expansion...yes I played that....

or will you leave the emote for this thread to be ever angery
Quote from: Maelstrom on June 10, 2017, 09:41:08 PMhas your hatred abated

Walking the Dog - Nintendogs! RIP all abandoned OG nintendogs :'(

I know it probably shouldn't be in this thread but deal with it
Battle - LoZ OoT (Piano Solo)
I also re-jigged Luigi/Mario Circuit (Piano Solo) in the way that I like to perform it so it's not entirely true to the original at all times, but fun to play. Here's the score + a video of me playing it.
Luigi/Mario Circuit (Simplified Piano Solo): [PDF]

Battle - LoZ Majora's Mask (Piano Duet)
Hold Them Off - Gears of War 2 (Piano Solo)
Busy Sim - Sims 2 (Piano Solo)
I disappeared for a while there.... Maybe I'm back now.
fittingly
Failure - Wii Fit (Piano Solo)
"Sim The Builder" - The Sims 2 (Piano Solo)
Create A Sim - The Sims 2 - "Bare Bones" (Piano Solo)
Man, I never really took the time to appreciate Wii Fit's soundtrack. Nice!
Wow, it's been a while! Virbank Complex - Pokemon Black 2/White 2
figured there aren't many b2w2 arrangements around so I'd contribute one ;)
I wanted to do a simple solo but there's so many parts everywhere with groovy electronic stuff innit so you've got two pianos again deal with it.
That's great! This one always remind me of the second, 4-voice fugue part of gordor's theme, the big vilain of pokémon ranger:
(0:38)
That's just the first notes, but... yeah.
I can definitely hear that :3
I keep hearing it as a reference to RBY viridian forest's creepy second part
Main Theme - Nintendogs
I thought this would be easy, but there's a load of things going on at the same time. Because I'm me, that means I have to put all of them in (almost). I'll probably do an easier version, if people want to play it...?
This is really nice! Good to see this theme getting some love - and great job keeping the arrangement sounding light and carefree. I love how it sounds. :)
Files, please, so I can try playing it maybe? :3 (Or help you format it for the site)

Battle! Champion Iris - Pokemon B2/W2 (Piano Solo)
This is not for arranged for playability unless you remove a bunch of stuff. I'm assuming people don't care that much about b2w2 anyway XD
Makeover - The Sims 2 (Piano Duet)
2 Simple ones from Pokemon XY
Santalune Forest (sheet looks a tad chodey dunnit)
Route 2
3rd in a row from Pokemon X and Y! Team Flare battle this time :D
I know these have been claimed, but it's been ages and I love this track so oh well. You can use this as a basis :)
Oreburgh Mine - Pokemon DPPt (Piano Solo)
Team Galactic Eterna Building - Pokemon DPPt (Piano Solo)
There's a bunch of smaller notes which are generally to be omitted unless you've got massive hands and are very skilled. Wanted to keep as much in as possible even though it's pretty ridiculous to play :P
Ancient Forest: Large Monster Battle - Monster Hunter World (Piano Solo)
Astera (Day) - Monster Hunter World (Piano Solo)
It's shifting between G major and minor often so, at times, I've used D minor/F major so that there aren't accidentals everywhere. That's probably not the best solution but hey ho. Bits near the end get messy because there's too many parts so you can cut one or two lines out, if you don't mind losing the mood a bit. Let me know if you like the Monster Hunter arrangements (or any for that matter ;))
Circuit - (Piano Solo) Mario Kart: Super Circuit
- The circuit theme for Luigi, Peach and Mario circuits. This is a groovy one hehe :D
Route 203 (Day) - Pokemon DPPt (Easy Piano Solo) - simplification of an old arrangement :D
Great work on both of these! I swear, Super Circuit's Circuit theme has some of the weirdest rhythms in vanilla 4/4 that I've ever heard. Your sheet of it looks and sounds splendid!
And Route 203! I'm super happy to see you try and make it more manageable. This looks like something I'd want to play now :P and I do! Can you share a PDF?
Desert Overworld - New Super Mario Bros. (Two Pianos)
Not the most exciting arrangement, but I figured I'd do the other in the pair because I did the wii version innit.
Bicycle (Piano Solo) - Pokemon Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald
This is a reduction of my previous orchestral score, if you're interested: https://youtu.be/2_oOBE5CNSg
Victory (Piano Solo) - Monster Hunter World
Your sheets sound really nice (in terms of both the arrangement and the sound quality). I especially like Bicycle. Keep up the great work! :>
Thanks, Zeila :D I appreciate the support!
Wild Pokemon Battle (Piano Solo) - Pokemon RSE
Bowser Jr.'s Fiery Flotilla (Piano Solo) - Super Mario Galaxy 2
Tower - NSMBW
This one is quite old and unfinished but I thought people might enjoy it anyway :D
Battle! Rival (Jazz Piano Arrangement) - Pokemon B2/W2
Nice one! I had a go at arranging this track years ago but only got a third of the way through. Glad to be able to hear your much better version of it in all its glory. :D
Those MH:W arrangements are great! You should definitely submit them (please do :P ).
Pokemon Center - RSE
possibly the best pokemon centre theme??? between bw and rse for me...
