Seems like most people have gotten their initial picks in so I’ll get started on creating the bracket. Once I have a number we’ll know how many songs there are and if we need any more to start.

It’s finally time to kick off another tournament; this time to decide the best credits theme! Voting for these matchups will be open until Saturday so choose wisely and have fun. Link to the bracket
Skyward Sword's Staff Roll is a little slow, but it's still great and gets my vote.
The Moving Out credits are pretty solid, but they definitely don't stand a chance against SMW. Probably one of the best songs in the tournament right here.
Into The Light is a very chill and fitting song after Octo Expansion, but it looks like the link from the SMW poll was copied by accident. Once that gets fixed please let me know!
A Capcom banger vs. a Capcom banger, man. I have more of a connection to Great Ace Attorney, though, and this is a fantastic mix of some of the best songs throughout the game.
That Xenoblade 2 song is incredible. Even though I've never played it, it's very moving. Up against Mother 3, though, I love how this song combines lots of different themes throughout the game, especially the Love theme. So that gets my vote.
And Super Mario Galaxy 2... that intro gives me chills literally every time I hear it. It's so powerful and just purely perfect. That Pokemon song is pretty cool; I like how upbeat it is, and I'm pretty sure I've heard that theme in Smash before. But it sadly doesn't stand much of a chance in my mind against SMG2. Seriously, those first 20 seconds are magical.

I’m sure the mega man theme is great and all, but I honestly could not get past the first few seconds. That 8bit instrument they picked is not a good choice for an extended solo at that high of a pitch.
The other 8bit song in the current set, Super Mario Bros 2 went with a music box approach. I know it has no chances against Skyward Sword, but it’s such a cute, peaceful little tune. I gave it my vote.
From our opening set of matchups we have Skyward Sword moving on at 7-2, Super Mario World at 9-0, Splatoon 2: Octo Expansion at 6-1, The Great Ace Attorney 2 at 7-1, and Xenoblade Chronicles 2: Torna The Golden Country as well as Super Mario Galaxy 2 winning 4-4 tiebreakers. Since this round was a little late I’ll leave voting open until Thursday. Link to the bracket
