Victory Theme Discussion

[Mario & Sonic Guy]

Maybe Rosalina's victory theme can be a small remix of the Good Egg Galaxy BGM's ending.

Hmm, maybe I can make that.....

 

[Hippopotasauce]

Rhythm Heaven has quite a few options.
The prologue to remixes in Rhythm Heaven Fever
The first few seconds of the Superb rating theme
The Wii Menu remix of the Title Theme from Rhythm Heaven Fever
Or, more character-specific ones:
Karate Joe
Wrestler

 

[StupendousMike]

I agree, since it is just a different version of Sonic's victory theme from Brawl.

And Sonic 3, Sonic & Knuckles, Sonic 3D Blast, Sonic R, Sonic Adventure, Sonic Adventure 2, Sonic Heroes, Sonic 2006, Sonic 4... they don't use it every single game, but it is the all-purpose Sonic "victory theme" at this point. No reason to change it in Smash 4 as far as I can see.

 

[Yosher]

Hah, I'm really liking the idea of characters getting their own victory tunes. The icons of each series should probably stick with what they already have, with a few exceptions maybe, but characters like Luigi, Peach, Bowser, Zelda, Ganondorf, etc really should get their own.

Luigi's should be from Luigi's Mansion obviously, with Peach using the one from when she's resqued in various games (most notably the older ones). Fortune Street (aka Boom Street for us Europeans) already used that theme too when you'd finish on a Mario themed board. I think Bowser's could be a rock-ish, metal-ish remix of the start of the Super Mario Bros 3 Fortress theme, they could make a pretty epic end with the drums at the end.

Link can keep what he has, but obviously Zelda's should be Zelda's Lullaby. Either that, or the iconic theme belonging to the series, as was the case for SSB64 and Melee. Ganondorf is hard to pick. I think the theme he usually uses in games would be too soft, but they could easily make it sound harder, more rough, like, 'The end is near!' rough, fitting to Ganondorf's character. Toon Link? Obviously something from the Wind Waker. Probably a snippet from the title screen theme, but could easily be the start of the Outset Island theme.

The Pokémon don't really have any theme related to themselves all that much as much as others do except maybe Jigglypuff. Come to think of it, Jiggly could easily use that little jingle of her; heck, have Jiggly sing to it in one of her victory animations, and make all the other characters fall asleep in the process in the background instead of clapping when that one victory animation of hers appears! They all should already have sleeping animations anyway. As for other Pokémon, Pikachu can stick with what he has; it IS the iconic theme song of Pokémon after all, and Pikachu is the iconic mascot of the series, so it fits. For others, perhaps one of them can use the jingle that plays after a Pokémon is done evolving. Such as in this video (at around 0:25, but more extended):

I just can't really think of a Pokémon with a viable chance of being playable that this jingle would fit with though, except Pikachu and Jigglypuff themselves, but they already have better examples, and both Lucario and Mewtwo don't really seem fitting for that theme. Maybe Pichu or Meowth, should either one of those become playable (which I'm not really expecting, but they seem like SOMEWHAT viable choices). I think Pokémon Trainer's could be a remix of either the start or ending of the Pokémon Red/Blue Credits theme:

Now I know I said each series mascot can keep what they have now, but as a Yoshi fan I am a little disappointed they kept using the Yoshi's Story fanfare up to this point. I'd personally love for it to be changed to either a part of the Yoshi's Island ending (8:45 at the first video below) or part of the Flower Garden theme from the same game (at 0:10 on the second video below).

Either that, or a part of the Yoshi's Island title theme; either the original or DS one. Or they could pull something from Yoshi's New Island.

 

[D-idara]

I think the Yoshi victory theme represents him too well to change it.

 

[RelaxAlax]

This should be what they're like - instead of just a short jingle, they should extend to loop for the a while on the results screen :3

 

[Golden Icarus]

Dubstep victory themes FTW!

 

[DoubleYooToo]

This should be Wario's victory theme (0:11)

 

[JeanLucAwesome]

If it wasn't for the whole being short thing, like if they all had a theme that kept playing until you leave the screen..
Then I would say Mega Man 3's Weapon Get.

Skip to 0:30

But yeah, Mega Man 2's Boss Select done like you hear in the trailer is cool too.

 

[TheRealHeroOfWinds]

I really want Mega Man's victory theme to be the password theme from Mega Man 2.

0:17 - 0:29

 

[Wanderer from Roseyard]

Perfectly suited to Mach Rider!

...and for Simon Belmont (if we're dreamin', here).

 

[Tailisu10]

Rosalina's Victory Song can be the "Star Get" or "Grand Star Get" songs.

 

[Hippopotasauce]

This should be what they're like - instead of just a short jingle, they should extend to loop for the a while on the results screen :3

I actually really like the idea of a character-specific theme playing over the results music. This is definitely something that can be expanded upon.
Olimar's
Pokemon Trainer's
Ice Climbers'
Villager's

 

[Meis]

Perfectly suited to Mach Rider!

...and for Simon Belmont (if we're dreamin', here).

Awesome. Simon's should be the one starting at 2:00, it fits with Super Smash.

 

[Sonicguy726]

Mario should stay the same
For Bowser I wanna see the music for World Bowser in Super Mario 3D World, it's so jazzy and strangely fits him

0:00-0:12 ( shortened to around 8-9 secs)
And for Luigi I wanna see the dual scream ringtone from Luigi's Mansion 2

0:00-0:06
I don't know about peach maybe something from Super Princess Peach like the main theme

0:00-0:8.5
or the stage clear theme

And for Rosalina how about the first few seconds of Good Egg Galaxy it was the song in her trailer after all

Or maybe the power star get theme

 

[Problem2]

Everyone keeps referencing Super Princess Peach for songs for Peach's individual victory, but I think the Ending theme from Super Mario Bros 1 remixed would be iconic and more recognizable as it is often played in scenes involving Princess Peach. It's pretty much her theme song by now.

Don't we want to represent her as her own character and not just something that needs to be saved, Super princess peach was her one time in the spotlight why not reference it in her victory theme since we're definitely not getting perry

 

[Problem2]

I wouldn't consider Super Princess Peach as an ideal role model game. It's riddled with terrible female stereotypes.
The song is played in lots of scenes where Peach is introduced, whether it is after just being saved or she just walks into the room. More people will associate that song better with Peach, than an obscure spin-off.

 

[Pittoo]

While I don't necessarily think it needs to be changed, I think if Pit's were to be changed in Smash 4, this may be one of the better choices:

I say this because it's a track from Pit's latest game and it's a victory theme, so I think it would fit well. That being said, his current victory theme in Brawl is more recognizable as a Kid Icarus song, so it's probably not going to be changed.

Maybe that could be palutena's

 

[Pittoo]

Maybe that could be palutena's

I can see that happening if she gets in and if every character gets their own unique victory theme.

Hahahaha, it's so funny when people think Super Princess Peach is misogynistic even though it's explained why she has mood swings on the game.

 

[Sonicguy726]

Since Lucario was just revealed what do you think his victory theme could be? Something from 4th gen maybe? or maybe something to do with korrina, that gym leader that had 2 lucarios and gave you the mega ring as well as a lucario in X and Y?

EDIT: All of my yes goes to this

0:00-0:14
(Obviously shortened)

 

[TheRealHeroOfWinds]

Shortened version for Lucario.

 

[Sonicguy726]

Shortened version for Lucario.

I don't think that would work for lucario since lucario has literally nothing to do with team flare

 

[TheRealHeroOfWinds]

I don't think that would work for lucario since lucario has literally nothing to do with team flare

Well he got a Mega Evolution in this game. And it is the most recent.

 

[Sonicguy726]

Well he got a Mega Evolution in this game. And it is the most recent.

I guess but I think something from 4th gen or something related to korrina would make a lot more sense since thats the game he's from and she gave you the mega ring

 

[UltimateWario]

I think I remember reading somewhere that Sakurai intended to give EVERYONE their own unique victory theme, akin to Meta Knight, but ended up just leaving it with Meta Knight.

I would imagine that it'll be a feature this time around. I certainly hope it is. Playing Link and Mario's themes is just disgraceful on characters like Ganon and Bowser, and if Ridley and K. Rool get in, it'd be the same way.

 

[Sonicguy726]

I'd like to see the generations victory theme for sonic

 

[Maffewt]

I think this as far as 1:11 for Peach would suit:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TQB_G1G8SZ0&list=PLE102C0B36467DA8B&t=1m02s

Her first playable game, correct? Though I guess it could work with Toad, too. But it seems more Peach-y.

 

[Violenceman]

Now that we have Diddy Kong, what would make a good victory theme for him?

If Dixie makes it in, I hope to hear this one:

You're welcome

Do You know where the paper mario theme is from, I can't find it

 

[JediLink]

Do You know where the paper mario theme is from, I can't find it

You telling me you've never played Thousand Year Door, son?

 

[Sonicguy726]

You telling me you've never played Thousand Year Door, son?

Not much and that was a while ago, I need to get to that eventually

Also do you know which version of ganondorfs theme that is

Also anyone got any ideas for a Charizard theme, Greninja's should be his trailer music

 

[Sonicguy726]

Sorry Double Post

 

[TheLegendOfVenusaur]

Do you think each character will get a unique victory theme and do you have any ideas for what they would be?
This is what I have so far:
Megaman: Level intro from the original series. http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=pOdopikccQk
Rosalina: the song that plays when you get a grand star in smg http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=wI-EJ1FmVeA
Greninja: Pokemon X and Y Champion Victory Theme (first 11 seconds) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bMpVagmfOu8
King Dedede: start of his theme. (First 14 seconds) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6ZEV84o_E7U
Zelda: first 12 seconds to Zelda's lullaby. http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=_qPtuOfQbyI
Diddy Kong: first 12 seconds to... this http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=zIH3Vvq6NWc
Jigglypuff (if it returns and YES I had to use this video.) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J4GdGSnhr_c
If you guys can think of anymore, particularlly newcomers. Be sure to share. I will also accept them for unannounced veterans and newcomers. (Like Ganondorf and Isaac for example.)

 

[DaDavid]

I definitely think that each character should get their own, but I personally don't really know which ones to suggest. That's a good list there though.

 

[ImaClubYou]

Bowser needs some badass DEATHHH METALLL. Or play his final theme in SM64.

 

[Stueyman2099]

I like Rosa's.
Dedede's is awesome.
Zelda's; while it's a song that definitely fits her, it's too slow to be a victory theme. Guessing they're going to go with the classic Zelda fanfare.
No comment on Diddy.


My 2 cents:
Expecting something more like this for Mega Man: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dvi46JYzwdU
Little Mac needs his training music: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SW3UoN15fPs
