Latest revision as of 20:10, July 29, 2024
The music of Super Smash Bros. comprises one remixed track for each VS Mode stage as well as several original compositions. Hirokazu Ando arranged all the remixes in SSB and composed the game's original music. All of the music except the Character Select theme can be played in the Sound Test. Song titles are not listed in-game; these are derived from Nintendo All-Star! Dairantō Smash Brothers OST where available.
Opening[edit]
Opening | |
---|---|
Track title | Opening |
Universe | Super Smash Bros. |
Debut game | Super Smash Bros. |
Link | [2] |
Usage[edit]
The music is played during the opening movie for Super Smash Bros. It opens with a soft piece, similar to the games secondary main theme, getting significantly more lively as the characters are brought to life by Master Hand. 8 differently pitched stings play as the starter cast is presented, and it soon transitions into the main theme of the game, also heard in the credits. This half of the track would later be remixed and placed into other tracks composed in future games, such as Final Destination's music in Super Smash Bros. Melee.
