When the Gamecube announced that it would use an optical medium for its games, this allowed more space for a larger number of unique tracks on them. This was probably due to memory constraints on the Nintendo 64 cartridge. This happens with most of, if not all, the themes in Super Mario 64. For example, the Bob-omb Battlefield theme is repeated at least between 3 different worlds including Bob-omb Battlefield. One of the biggest critiques of the soundtrack for Super Mario 64 is that, while the tracks themselves are great, there is a lot of copying and pasting of world themes between them which can sometimes make for a repetitive experience. About a year ago, I was listening to the soundtrack for it when I realized a lot of repetition existed that I had never really noticed before, and I thought the way it worked out in the game was brilliant in a subtle kind of way.īob-omb Battlefield probably has the most famous theme from Super Mario 64 Of course, me being a fan of music as much as games, one of the most nostalgic things about Super Mario Sunshine for me is the soundtrack. It was so cool to finally try out a 3D Super Mario game like what I had seen with Super Mario 64. At the time, I was a huge Super Mario fan and when my brother and I got our Gamecube bundled with Super Mario Sunshine I became nothing short of obsessed with the game and every little detail of it. I had gone up to that point playing Super Nintendo and with that, Super Mario World and all of the NES games available on the Super Mario All Stars compilation cartridge. While I was aware that the Playstation 2 and Xbox were out as well, Nintendo seemed to be the only real direction to go in that made sense to me. In the summer of 2002 I was an excited 3rd grader as we were riding up to the local Walmart to pick up the one thing I had been excited about the most: the Nintendo Gamecube. I couldn’t find a good-quality American cover so PAL will have to do!
