Topic: The NintendoLife VGM Tournament: Best City / Urban Theme (Round Two)

Ah. A casualty.

F

Also hey REmake 3 won a round! I wasn’t expecting that.

I ended up voting for Lufia even though Pokemon SM was my nomination, but I see Pokemon is still a long way ahead. That's fine by me.

@Dogorilla Thanks man, I'll take any votes for my nomination I can get. Got a bit unlucky that it went against one of the best Pokémon boss themes in the series, but eh.

@ThePirateCaptain Sorry about this, but the poll doesn't allow me to edit my picks, and I just realised I voted FF6 accidently over Kirby 64. Are you able to change it?

@NF6429
I can’t change the poll but I’ll make sure I get your vote right when I update the bracket tomorrow.

This time the songs moving on will be Pokémon Sun & Moon at 5-4, Final Fantasy VI with the tiebreaker at 4-4, Octopath Traveller at 5-3, and Skyward Sword at 5-4.

The Twilight Princess link directs to the same song as the Fire Emblem one

Interesting match for the Big Sister theme, since that kinda already sounds like a swarm of wasps is chasing you.

@Eel
Thanks, the link should be fixed now.

May the best bug theme win!

It's nice when this tournament gives some attention to really good tracks from games that nobody ever talks about, like in the first matchup of this round.

I want to add with some DDR Boss songs.

Over The "Period" by TAG underground overlay from DDR 2014

ENDYMION by fallen shepherd from DDR A

Delta MAX by DM ASHURA from DDR UNIVERSE 3 / DDR X2 Arcade / DDR II Wii

@Anti-Matter nominations are over, the list of songs is already done

@Anti-Matter
Unfortunately I’m not able to add any more songs to the bracket at this point.

Moving on from this round we have Denpasar Men 3 at 5-2, Final Fantasy Mystic Quest at 4-3, Twilight Princess with the tiebreaker at 3-3, and Bug Fables at 4-2.
