Live orchestral music often gets our heart rates pumping, no matter what’s on the game screen in front of us. It’s natural to assume, then, that Super Mario 3D World for the Wii U would tap the same musical path that the Super Mario Galaxy games took in previous years. Luckily, confirmation that a live orchestra features in Mario’s latest outing has surfaced, where lead composer Mahito Yokota told Destructoid that many of the tracks have that “big-band feel” for a splash of colourful drama.
“There are naturally a lot of tracks performed live. We’re arranging the music with a big-band feel, taking advantage of a full horn section with trumpets and saxophones.” – Mahito Yokota
First
And you imbeciles were saying Sonic Flop World looked better. ROFL! THIS game will be great. Better than any mediocre Sonic shit.
hopefully this will put wii u back on track also the ways things are looking might be a good time to show off that new zelda game for wii u
Actually Wii U sales have been encouraging since October 4th.
That’s true, actually. It’s just been struggling in Japan lately, but so has the XBOX 360 since day 1, and that sold quite well.
I appreciate that!
Mario Galaxy has one of the best game soundtracks ever. This is good.
Hopefully they include the track in the second trailer. It’s the best rythm I’ve heard in three years…
Damn so far the music is amazing. I hope they do a epic final boss theme like galaxy 1 and 2. Does anyone get a Vegas feel when they listen to the second trailer’s music?
Hmm that’s a nice touch to the game :)
where will they fit in my living room? Being “live” and all
A guy comes with every copy of the game so not need to worry.
It’s a one man band thing
Marc Dobson, ftw! \^o^/
Thank god!
Galaxy 2 had the best mario stages as well as the best music. This is great news
Ahem,
HOENN CONFIRMED
Yeah, this game keeps getting better and better.
Who else will be getting this game at midnight at an Xbox One midnight launch?
HAHA… I’ll let Amazon deliver it to my door
I’m sure that there will be an MS representative guarding the Nintendo section to ensure that doesn’t happen ; )
I think the eyes of all xbox fans will “headshot” you :P
Holy luigi, there are going to be stampedes and fan riots in every game store that night!
I figured as much, I mean after hearing Bowser’s Castle music its hard to believe it wasn’t. The music is sounding amazing so far.
If its as good as Super Mario Galaxy, then this is excellent news!
Pure awesomeness
The music I’ve heard from 3D World so far has been awesome. Seriously, it’s memorable, catchy and just plain fun to listen to. Those are all qualities that the music in the best Mario games have had. It totally eclipses the somewhat generic tunes from the New Super Mario Bros. series. I’m even more thrilled now that I know it will be orchestrated live. Plus, the saxophone is one of my favorite instruments. I’m so excited for this game!
I personally declare this game an instant classic. Mario forever! And hugs!
So the Jazz is not just a one-time thing :)
Galaxy 1 and 2 were awesome, also for 3D land.
Im wondering if the combine the correct music in the correct level or map. They alsways do that corrct.
When the hell since Bowser had a car?
Mario Kart lol!
Okay, in four months this has gone from being a minor disappointment to the game I’m most excited for this year!
Yeah! Saxophones.
Ohh that is a nice surprise. Galaxies had great music.. That was one piece of art
