We are used to boss themes creeping us out or emphasising our movements, but they rarely get us this pumped. We'll admit, boss music is supposed to hit hard and trigger a fight or flight response in us, the player, but Toby Fox's Megalovania takes it to a whole new level.
Undertale - Megalovania Subscribe to Nintendo Life on YouTube The Wii Sports games are great, but the theme music does make it hard to actually want to press play. You can't have a track with that shredding electric guitar, a piano melody, and a flute accompaniment and expect us not to get up and dance. The purpose of the Wii Sports menu music should be something to play in the background while you pick your game and argue over the need for safety straps, not one of the dance anthems of the mid-2000s. Kazumi Totaka was told to make "music that chills" but he heard "music that kills" and they ran with it. There will be many, and we're eager to hear them! Wii Sports - Theme Music Subscribe to Nintendo Life on YouTube Have a listen through our picks (presented here in no particular order) and then take to the comments to let us know of any we missed. If we were just talking about the hardest video game tracks of all time then we would be here all day (there's no point in putting Ocarina of Time's Gerudo Valley on this list, for example, as that track's hardness perfectly matches its placement). Of course, these are only the tracks that slap somewhat surprisingly. They had no reason to go that hard, to be that good.īelow, we have assembled some of the tracks that instantly popped to mind when we started down this path. We started thinking of other tunes that are undeniable bangers but, when we think about it, they play at unexpected times. The release of GoldenEye 007 on the Nintendo Switch Online N64 Library has got us thinking about this exact game music phenomenon (for obvious reasons that we'll come back to later). There are often times when game music composers will write an extremely hard track and then it makes its way into the game regardless of the situation because the piece is Just. A high-stakes moment in the game might be met by tense strings and an ever-rising pitch action set-pieces might opt for a big brass statement of the main theme to emphasise your heroic movements chilled-out hubs might provide some lighter tracks on the keys, bringing your pulse down if it's generally an intense game or letting you fully relax into the world à la Animal Crossing: New Horizons.īut this is not always the case. In the vast majority of these instances, the tracks match the situation pretty perfectly. There is a lot of video game music out there that goes hard.
