MGS4 ~Theme of Love~ Smash Bros. Brawl Version
Origin
This track is technically an original music piece created for Brawl by Konami. This track was later remixed for use in the PlayStation 3 exclusive Metal Gear title Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots. It is likely because of this track's exclusitivity to a future release on a 3rd party console that Super Smash Bros. Brawl is credited in the title of this track. In Metal Gear Solid 4, a slower version of this track was used as the game's main theme. In the same game, Solid Snake also owns an iPod, which features this exact rendition of the track, albeit with the name Love Theme (action version).
