Nintendo: "Hmmm....you know what? Sure. We here at Nintendo understand your desire to listen to our music and engage with our content outside of our games. So we're going to drop THREE soundtracks on the service for this week."
Us: "THREE?! Wow! Okay, awesome! What are they? Tears of the Kingdom? Fire Emblem Three Houses? Xenoblade Chronicles X releases this week, so maybe that game? Oooh or maybe a classic like F-Zero GX or Kirby Air Ride???"
Nintendo: "Better than that! Here's our soundtracks for Dr. Mario, and TWO versions of Tetris, the NES and Gameboy soundtrack! ENJOY!"
I 110% agree. It can obviously be a case by case basis depending on what kind of game you're making, but ultimately if a game is Japanese in nature, it should cater to that audience.
Take Persona for instance. The culture within each game is heavily Japenese centric and I wouldnt want it any other way. I've learned so much about different foods, social cues and practices because of these games. I can't tell you how many times I've Googled a certain food or what "Senpai" actually means. And Japenese centric games just have a certain look, feel and appeal and it would be a damn shame if that was left behind. It's a part of their culture that I welcome wholeheartedly.
Western games have their place but gaming would be very boring if it just appealed to America and Europe.
@N00BiSH I don't understand how creating an entirely different button scheme for menus is more intuitive than jut making it the same across both Bros. Sounds like you just have rose tinted glasses here.
@N00BiSH It IS a problem though because like I said, it would fundamentally change how the plug menu works for both Bros so it makes sense to streamline it. It's really not a big deal anyway, I don't know why you're letting it bother you so much.
@N00BiSH This is such a non-issue. I don't understand why people are so upset about. Sure, it trips up muscle memory but it's not a bug at all. And plus, making Luigi's actions tied to B would effect how the Plug menu works which would be confusing.
I admit, it did trip me up at first but I got over it after the first few areas. Once you get used to it, it's second nature like anything else.
Banning X from this forum is a stupid move. X is social media. Get over it. News is news. If the source is reliable, it should be posted regardless where it's from.

@mariomaster96 It has been confirmed that you can choose the flight music in the options menu.
That being said
@echoplex I'm sorry you hate peak. Don't worry, we can't all have good taste. 😉

@stache13 You are missing out on absolute peak. Have more patience. It's very much worth it.
