Listen to this and then you'll agree with me.

Hmm, rousing string arrangements with a few passing similarities. Yeah, definitely sue-worthy. 100%, no doubt about it, bulletproof lawsuit right there.

I'm glad the title caught someone's attention. :)

Hmmm, I didn't meant to sound that sarcastic. They are similar, but I don't think it's lawsuit worthy. Incidental similarities happen a lot in music. I thinks its them both being string-heavy that really makes them sound the same.

I can understand that.  I was being sarcastic with my title though.  Also, I love that my favorite theme in Partners in Time is incidentally being used in the Last Story.

Are the composers the same? if so its normal... Sakaruba does tons of music in tri-Ace and Namco Bandai games and sometimes they end up sounding very similarly

Given that both were contracted by Nintendo, i would find the whole process rather difficult, and that's if they actually did have a case.

Toei totally has a case against Nintendo, though.

(just the first one)

Can't listen to this at work, tagging for later out of curiosity.

I think HAL Laboratories had a better lawsuit against Square for Uematsu's total rip of Jun Ishikawa's "The Gourmet Race" from Kirby with his "You're not Alone" from FFIX.
