Topic: The NintendoLife VGM Tournament: Farewell

Well, could you take 5 minutes and break it anyway? (unless you aren't voting for Bravely Default )

Heh, all right all right. ..........

...nvm.

Mario World. (I NOES SPEAK COMPUTER)

We've got half an hour left before I close down this flight of voting. So, would someone kindly break the tie between Professor Layton and Bravely Default? I hate doing coin tosses.

Anybody?????????????

I'm honestly expecting someone to vote at the last minute, right as I have everything and did the coin toss to determine the winner....

Once it hits 10:00 on my iPad, which is three minutes from now, I'm posting the results! No delay!

Round 1, Flight 2 Results

Here is a link to the current bracket.

It's time to vote in the third flight of Round 1. Everyone can vote!

YAY! BRAVELY DEFAULT!!!
1) Metroid Prime — Yet another one of my odder nominations. It just sounds so alien. And awesome.
2) No More Heros — As much as I want to like Shadow of the colossus, it's just not that good
3) Chrono Trigger — This isn't that great, but the other song is just an annoyance.
4) Kirby Super Star: The Revenge of Meta Knight — Just a better song. It's that simple.

Mario kart 64
NMH (Both are good. though I gotta go with this one.)
Prince of persia. (Chrono's got too boring)
Kirby's Halibard. (Heh, heh. I could probably listen to this forever. You guys need to check out the Revenge of Meta Knight sometime. )

1) Metroid Prime - Heyyy, I liked this one a lot in Brawl, now I know where it came from!
2) No More Heroes - The other one is just way, too, slow.
3) Chrono Trigger - I don't really like either, but one I dislike less
4) Don't have a vote right now - They're both on par for me, I'll only vote for one if it comes down to a tiebreaker

My post has been updated with my votes

1) Metroid Prime
2) No More Heroes
3) Chrono Trigger
4) Kirby Super Star (Revenge of Meta Knight)

1)Metroid Prime
2)No More Heroes
3)Chrono Trigger
4)Kirby Super Star

Anybody else?

Anybody???

Heh, we can probably end this section in 24 hours.

1) Metroid Prime – What's with the sped up cat torturing going down in the background though?
2) No More Heroes – Shadow of the Colossus merely stays in the background, never stepping into the limelight
3) Chrono Trigger
4) Kirby Super Star: The Revenge of Meta Knight

Those are metroids.

Figures, I suppose. That doesn't make it any less discomforting, though.

1. Metroid Prime
2. No More Heroes
3. Prince of Persia: The Two Thrones
4. Kirby Super Star (Revenge of Meta Knight)

I had half of this comment typed out and accidentally clicked the X when I tried to tab back in to get the next link... I'm absolutely seething, right now...

1) Mario Kart 64 — Short version: I didn't really think either of these were that good. They both feel subdued and more like any other track than a grandiose final note to the game. I chose this one because it just seemed to fit the game better, but really it could go either way. I'm not fussed on this one.

2) Shadow of the Colossus — Ambience. It's what this game is all about. Being sucked into the world and given the rather depressing ending of this game, the sad, slow ambient credits theme fits. Besides, No More Heroes' final theme sounds like a generic battle theme to me. I made a quip about this thread hating on ambient themes, but I'm honestly too annoyed to bother trying to remember it.

3) Chrono Trigger — Nope. Neither of these really do it for me. I really like the piano parts on "The Outskirts of Time," but honestly, they both feel subdued. Not a last hurrah. Not a contemplative look back on the game. I typically love Chrono Trigger music, but this one only wins by not being as bad as the opponent.

4) Poke'mon: Gold/SIlver Version — Maybe it's just my tiredness or my nostalgia kicking in for what I've always considered one of the best Poke'mon games of all time, but I can hear musical elements from all over the game in this song, yet it doesn't feel like it's directly ripping off other songs from the game. Really good at making me think back on the journey to where I am via musical elements.
