i came across this one day:






Yeah, it's the same company and same composer. But i still thought it was weird back when i discovered it.

Wonder if there are similar examples? Obviously, games from the same franchise don't count since it's pretty common for sequels to reuse music from the originals.

[nkarafo]

Yeah but those are in the same franchise, which is pretty common and expected.

Fuck this game's unresponsive drums though.

 

[EightBit Man]

This one is really crazy and makes zero sense, but...it happened




A more sensible one:

 

[ISubZBR]

Top Gear Theme appears in Horizon Chase.

This theme is just insane.







Bônus:



Let me explain:

About ten years ago, this version appeared in Internet like a meme, because this musical genre is considered tasteless.

Someone make a list of all the rearrangements/remixes Super Smash games music have!

Hyrule Warriors and Fire Emblem Warriors could qualify too!
