The NSM Guess-That-Melody Quiz!

[E. Gadd Industries]

._. The fact that I made my quiz super difficult and reading these comments is reaaaaally making me want to withdraw.

[Dudeman]

Withdraw entirely, or just alter your quiz?

[E. Gadd Industries]

Withdraw; I don't have the time to change it.

[Maelstrom]

Withdraw; I don't have the time to change it.

You could just ask to change places. I'm sure someone else has one that's nearly done and can temporarily take your place.

So we can finish before Saturday, all guesses are due 24 hours from this post. Then I'll post answers.

No need to have OST track titles or whatever, just as long as you show me you know what song it is. I'll message back if any wrong guesses.

[mastersuperfan]

I remembered #4

Get rekt y'all

[Dudeman]

god dammit

[E. Gadd Industries]

Ehhhhh I'm a true least going in the back of the line. Probably still going to withdraw.

Answers! As promised, no curveballs; everything is Nintendo IP, and well-known ones, at that.

#1

Boss Battle Song 2 - Super Smash Bros. Brawl

Timestamp: 0:02

Tabuu's battle theme. The one I thought would be most widely recognized.

[close]

#2

Battle! (Reshiram/Zekrom) - Pokémon Black and White

Timestamp: 0:18

Plays when battling Reshiram and Zekrom. Also valid: Kyurem's similar battle theme.

[close]

#3

End of All (Sky/Land/Below) - Fire Emblem Fates

Timestamp: 1:44

Plays during the final boss battle of any route.

[close]

#4

Aquatic Race - Super Mario Galaxy

Timestamp: 0:40

Plays when racing in Loopdeeloop/Loopdeeswoop Galaxy. Also valid: Chimp Challenge from Super Mario Galaxy 2. Thought this one would be marginally harder than the others but I guess not lol.

[close]

#5

Nintendo 3DS eShop

Timestamp: 0:06

Good old eShop.

[close]

Winner is mastersuperfan, who has the first perfect score in this game! Congrats!

[mikey]

...that's not the eShop theme I'm familiar with
seriously WHAT is that I don't recognize it

I would have recognized #4 I think if you had started it from 0:07

[WaluigiTime64]

No wonder #4 was so familiar.

[mastersuperfan]

Ayyyyyy

...that's not the eShop theme I'm familiar with
seriously WHAT is that I don't recognize it

Guess you were just unlucky enough never to load the eShop when the default music was playing lol

That's the point--everyone's played SMG, but only those who know the OST really well will get #4 right away. I was pretty close to giving up myself, but I knew I'd heard it somewhere before. That's what makes a good melody in this game.

[E. Gadd Industries]

Wait, so you can start from anywhere in the song? That changes things...
Anyhoo, I've picked out my 5 songs. Who wants to switch with me to give me more time to redo my quiz? (Also, does anyone want to try their hand at my original quiz before I scrap it?)

[Dekkadeci]

Am I the only one who thought #4 resembled the Oompa Loompa song (well, a major-key version), and that's why it sounded familiar enough?
