Before we go rocketing off trying to record and assemble videos for NSM, we have to choose a game first! We'll use this topic for discussion, and you'll be able to nominate games here for an eventual poll.

Here are two quick things to check when choosing a game to nominate.
- The game has a decent number of good sheets. If there are only a few sheets for a game, or they're all bad, then there won't be enough material to work with.
- The sheets from the game aren't all terribly difficult. If it takes too long for the performers to perfect it, that's a huge time sink, and the project would likely drag on and on.

And the nominations are...
- The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time
- The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past
- Kirby's Epic Yarn
- Super Mario Galaxy
- Pokémon Red Version & Pokémon Blue Version
- Pokémon Gold Version & Pokémon Silver Version
- The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker

And the winner is:

In that regard, I think some games that would work well are Super Mario Bros. 3, The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, Pokémon X & Pokémon Y, and Kirby's Epic Yarn.

They all have a good amount of popular appeal and some quality sheets at a manageable difficulty level.

as far as Zelda soundtracks go OoT isn't one of my favorites, regardless of how cool it would be for me to play the Nocturne of Shadow.
Perhaps A Link to the Past, Wind Waker, or Skyward Sword would be better

[Sebastian]

I'm down for OoT.

[Latios212]

@Noc: You're free to nominate what you want! Just be sure to check the actual sheets as I mentioned above - last I checked Wind Waker has some great sheets but also has a bunch of awful ones.

[mikey]

yeah I know, but wind waker is such a great game :c
Out of those three I think a link to the past is the best for this

[E. Gadd Industries]

I'd feel most comfortable with either a Mario game (maybe Galaxy?) or Kirby's Epic Yarn, since I know the OST pretty well.

[Pianist Da Sootopolis]

Pokemon Red/Blue, since we have the entire OST.

[BrainyLucario]

Undertale maybe? we have a good amount of sheets on site. If we need more, I nominate Pokemon Black/White

[braix]

Pokemon G/S

[Ōkami~MD]

I would back E Gadd for Mario Galaxy music

[mikey]

Galaxy is pretty much the one Mario game I'd be okay with, but I'm also cool with Mario Kart.

[Latios212]

I'm down for OoT.

Cool. Added to the list.

Out of those three I think a link to the past is the best for this

Lots of good sheets by Deku, difficulty seems manageable too. Added.

Kirby's Epic Yarn, since I know the OST pretty well.

I second that. KEY has some great songs that we do have sheets for. Added. As for Galaxy...

I would back E Gadd for Mario Galaxy music

Galaxy sheets seem a little tougher than the ones from the games mentioned above (and many need some touching up too), but I think it could work out. Added.

Pokemon Red/Blue, since we have the entire OST.

The sheets can get quite difficult at times, but they'd be easy to tone down in terms of difficulty, and we have tons of good material. Added

Pokemon G/S

Sure. I have most of the sheets available, even if they're not on site yet. Added.

Undertale maybe? we have a good amount of sheets on site. If we need more, I nominate Pokemon Black/White

I'm a little hesitant to go with Undertale since Undertale music covers have been done and over-done on the Internet by now and I'd like the focus of our project to shine light on something that you can't already find too much of. Something you'd only be able to get from NSM, perhaps. As for Pokémon Black & White, most of the sheets are either quite difficult or just flat-out awful. That said, if you want to nominate either of those, that's okay!

Galaxy is pretty much the one Mario game I'd be okay with, but I'm also cool with Mario Kart.

Which one? Also Mario Kart sheets tend to be on the faster/more complex side of things.

[Olimar12345]

Wind Waker has some great music.

[Latios212]

I agree. I've added it to the list, but if we end up choosing it, there's a lot of sheet re-working to be done...

I should continue those replacements I started....
