The Music of SSBB

[Omnigamer]

From http://www.smashbros.com/en/music/index.html:

The main theme was created for us by none other than famed Final Fantasy composer, Nobuo Uematsu!

Additionally, opera singer Ken Nishikiori has also participated in this project on vocals.

...And as a special service to readers of this site, I can say that the game's music will be performed by a full orchestra.

It will be a deluxe chorus complete with lyrics in Latin.


It's of a slightly different disposition than previous Smash Bros. games, wouldn't you say?

I also want to change the atmosphere of the game itself a little, too. But you'll just have to look forward to how I'll be doing that.

Wow. As somewhat of a VGM music buff, I have to say that I'm very impressed they managed to pull Uemastu into this. Also, they have an mp3 of the main theme on the above site.

The music in SSBM was fully orchestrated. I wouldn't expect them to settle for less. I look forward to hearing all of the music, such a pleasure to listen to. I need to go dream now. :D

That's pretty **** schweet.

I love FF music, and KH music. I'm glad they got a good composer for SSBB!

Time to change my pants.......again.

Outstanding. They are getting a lot of talent involved in this title. I'm already predicting a ground-breaking game that will please the fans and bring in a new breed.

Looks at pile of pants: Two creamed and one brown after watching Wario in the trailer.

[Revolutions]

Beautiful. Do we know if Uematsu will be orchestrating any of the classic Nintendo songs?

[Omnigamer]

I hope so, but there's nothing indicating it at this point.

Nobuo Uematsu! did the music for smash OMG ninj4 what

[pichu410]

This music alone makes me excited! That was freakin' awesome!!

[Typh]

I could definitely see the song in the trailer on my ipod. It was perfectly done, and kind of gave the game that more "mature" tone, which complimented the graphical updates nicely.

[LOST_815]

It's so awesome that he's involved!

I wonder if he will be composing the rest of the music as well? Imagine your favorite themes reimagined through Nobuo! I want a LTTP Dark World or Castle themed stage so bad...

I hope there are an insane amount of stages with an insane variety of music (and alternate themes!).
