Awesome!! You finally made a Personal Arrangment Thread :)

Sorry for the double post  :-[

Here some errors I spotted and a couple suggestions:

Measure 18-21 The notes in the right hand should be put up an octave and the harmony notes in the bass staff should be moved to the right hand and put up an octave. Make sense? :)

Measure 30-33 I would make the notes in the treble piano (dynamic) and put staccatos or some kind of short accent.

Measure 46-52 The notes in the bass are an octave lower than what you have

Measure 61 I would get rid of the low A and E
If anyone has any disagreements with anything I said or anything to add on, thats ok :) Im not the best arranger


Pretty good on your first arrangment :) This one is kinda hard for a fisrt arrangment
Good Job!

I edited my arrangements with modifications according to your suggestions. You were right about measures 18-21 being an octave too low, but it made me realize that measures 10-17 might also have been an octave too low, which I corrected. However, the bass line in 18-21 isn't playable anymore with only two hands, should I just remove it or leave it as a reference?

I added staccatos in measures 30-33 as suggested (good catch, I didn't even notice during all those listenings).
For measures 46-52, I was pretty sure it wasn't an octave problem, but the bass notes really were too high. I changed the notes to better fit the original track (I think, tell me if you think I got it wrong again). 

Finally, in measure 61, I removed the strange chord that precedes the beggining, but I still left the last E because I think it's important to the bass line in order to start the song over properly. Did you suggest that I remove it because it doesn't fit a proper ending? If it's the case, maybe I should write a measure containing it for repetition, and another one for the ending.

Anyways, it was your request, so I'll do it the way you like most.

You can say that again, my next arrangements are gonna be good old NES games with 2 or 3 easily distinguishable voices, it's gonna be so much fun!
