For example, in Super Mario 3, the music and the theme of the Ship levels made it so that you felt kind of scared when you got on the ship.

Uhhhh, I think the Galaxy's Greatest Wave music is perfectly fitting for the circumstance. It's peppy upbeat racing music for a racing minigame. And I don't see whats less childish about the Mario 3 music. There is less bass I guess, but that's a practical concern. The Nintendo had a more narrow range of sounds, so the notes had to be further apart to make an appreciable difference. As another poster pointed out it's actually pretty musically complex.
I'm with Mr. Kahn on this one. Until you can really define clearly what you mean by kiddy or not kiddy, it's hard to really debate this. It seems that your just going on your personal feelings. You're entitled to your opinion, but it's not something that can really be argued for or against.
