I have seen that the english website hasn't the music theme. You can hear it in the italian page:

Music Theme Orchestrated

 

[PowerSmell]

Look at those music credits! :O :O :O
The music in this game will be legendary!

 

[disappeared]

Christ, what an amazing lineup of composers!!

 

[psy18]

Seriously?! To have so many of these individuals providing music for a single work may very well be an historic event in the history of video-game music!
It's almost unthinkable!

Of course, Smash will let you enjoy music from a wide variety of Nintendo games.
A number of individuals have put their touch on these arrangements.

Using the game music that has entertained so many as the base for new arrangements by so many famed musicians... Not too shabby, eh?

Here on Smash Bros. Dojo, we will share that music with you through occasional trial listening. Since this is my first post, I thought I would give you an arrangement of the song you probably heard most often in Super Smash Bros. Melee, Menu 1.
Motoi Sakuraba headed up that arrangement!

We've asked our group of arrangement supervisors to listen to an elite selection of Nintendo music and asked them to arrange several of their favorite songs...which means there will be quite a number of songs.

Wow. I'm ****ing sold!

 

[kiryogi]

Amazing composer list! But wheres Sakimoto!? He fails for not contributing!

 

[flipping_heck]

Doesn't say that on the UK site.. PAL am screwed!

 

[gimz]

can we predict what games characters will appear in SSBB from the music composers' name?

 

[GaimeGuy]

HOLY ****ING CRAP @ that composer list

 

[Tristam]

****ing sold.

Does that mean you're also sold on Journey of Dreams?

EDIT: By the way, I forgot to mention: HOLY FREAKING CRAP @ THE COMPOSER LIST. And the graphics look fantastic as usual.

 

[Mr. Pointy]

WHERE IS Nobuo Uematsu!?

He's one of the hidden characters.

And btw, here is the music file:

It's times like this when I'm happy that music ranks just below gameplay and smooth controls on my list of what makes for an awesome game.
Because, man, even SSBB is barely enough to handle that composer list. Reading it is like looking a who's who list of every awesome game musician ever, with Michiru Yamane as the only notable talent I can think of who's not on this project.

I wants me some Sugiyama.

I know.

awesome.

Masato Kouda Monster Hunter / Devil May Cry

Viewtiful Joe & Dante COMFIRMED????

 

[RiskyChris]

Everyone from Killer 7!

 

[Error]

I think these dudes will just arrange some of the songs in the game, not that characters from games they have compose music for will be in SSBB.

 

[The M.O.B]

Any Easter Eggs?

 

[A Link to the Past]

Oh man, I hope they do a whole lot of trophies in this game. And on top of that, Kawashima needs a role in the game - maybe the How to Play section?

 

[Mithos Yggdrasill]

Thanks a lot. It is a remake. Orchestrated. Very nice.

[WastingPenguins]

Anyone disappointed by the site, check out the updated theme! It's amaaaazing.

 

[DefectiveReject]

If the game has as much care in characters and gameplay as they have gathering musicians then i doubt any game will come within 10yards of this game this generation.

This game is going to absolutely kick ass from here til 2011

Hmm....

MGS music guy for Snake.

NiGHTS guy there for...Sonic?

Mitsuda there for..... OH SHI

CHRONO???

You gotta wonder.....

 

[methodman]

Wii-mote confirmed?

No new characters yet. Sneaky assholes.

 

[ELS-01X]

wowowow at the music list :-O

 

[Jiggy]

I wants me some Sugiyama.

Ah, yeah, good call.

Still amazing though. I need to figure out who did the music for Pokemon D/P too and see if they're on this...

 

[tetrisgrammaton]

guess we will have to wait a few days for new character announcements...

 

[HAL_Laboratory]

Wii-mote confirmed?

No new characters yet. Sneaky assholes.

Holy shit, good eye, man -- that could be something!

 

[hanpusu-taichou]

Tomoko Sasaki (TOKIOHEIDI) - NiGHTS


Sweet!
Okay. Too little info, but the list of composers is well enough. For a time.

 

[fresquito]

Holy F****G SHIT at the music!

 

[Innotech]

Guy who does Nights music is doing music for this game.

Sonic Confirmed

Spoiler

Believe

that would also whip NiGHTS fans into a frenzy if the wii didnt already have NiGHTS JOD coming. Good god Nintendo and third party affiliates are pulling out all the stops on this system. Well in the ways I care about anyway. It would be fantastic if niGHTS showed up as a playable character, but thats probably not too likely. Could he show up in a level though in the background? It would be awesome no doubt. Which is why I doubt it.

 

[ShockingAlberto]

It seems very likely, given this composer list and Sakurai's comments, that most levels will have more than one choosable theme.

 

[CrushDance]

Holy shit, good eye, man -- that could be something!

I already posted that in the main Nintendo thread. It seems it will be played sideways.

 

[Smiles and Cries]

The Music Composer list is enough to *FAP* to

HOLY SHIT!

 

[Duderz]

Well, at least we know the soundtrack for this game will be godly.

This game is very beloved.

 

[underfooter]

Graaaaavy.

 

[zoku88]

Ah, yeah, good call.

Still amazing though. I need to figure out who did the music for Pokemon D/P too and see if they're on this...

Hitami Sato and Junichi Masuda, I believe.

 

[Xrenity]

Where's the play button for the music :O

/edit
Oh it has to fully load.

 

[Mefisutoferesu]

Man, talk about a non-event. Does Nintendo seriously think it's OK to pull this crap. Hey guys, here's a 5 day counter for a game that you're all dying to see more of... psyche!!! There's nothing new HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA... >: |

Oh well, not like I'm a huge fan of the series (doesn't change the blahness of this), but at least we know the soundtrack should be pretty darn good.

SSB has always relied on analog movement though.

Yuzo Koshiro (ANCIENT) ActRaiser / Streets of Rage

Oh yes. Oh hell yes.

Don't get ****ing arrogant now, there's a lot of talent there like Mitsuda, Iwadare, Honda, Shimomura, Naruke, Koshiro, Sakuraba, Tsujiyoko, Kondo, Takada, etc. But there are a ton of talented composers in this industry missing from that list like Sakimoto, Yamaoka, Hamauzu, etc.

 

[HAL_Laboratory]

SSB has always relied on analog movement though.

Which means absolutely nothing.

 

[wonderfuldays]

Daily update megaton until game release confirmed!

 

[hanpusu-taichou]

Wii-mote confirmed?

Oh yes please let that be true.

Pretty darn good? Don't you think you're overstating the situation a little bit there?

SSB has always relied on analog movement though.

You guys are seriously putting too much stock into a controller icon. It's a clean web design decision. Having said that, I'm sure the game will be compatible with Wii Remote/Nunchuk, the GC controller, and the Classic Controller.
