Forums - Nintendo - Xenoblade soundtrack - Shimomura AND Mitsuda are composing

Naum on 29 April 2010

Wonder if they might beat the Xenogears OST.. no probably not, nothing for the last 12 years have even come close to how good that it.



If it isn't turnbased it isn't worth playing   (mostly)

And shepherds we shall be,

For Thee, my Lord, for Thee. Power hath descended forth from Thy hand, That our feet may swiftly carry out Thy command. So we shall flow a river forth to Thee And teeming with souls shall it ever be. In Nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritūs Sancti. -----The Boondock Saints

Comparing Kondo to Mitsuda/Uematsu is like comparing The Yardbirds to Led Zeppelin.



Bet with Dr.A.Peter.Nintendo that Super Mario Galaxy 2 won't sell 15 million copies up to six months after it's release, the winner will get Avatar control for a week and signature control for a month.

That means something , when Nintendo does something , they make sure that it will be done right ... at least the music all ready has a confirmation that ...

huh? this has nothing to do with Nintendo Mitsuda and the Xeno/Gears/Saga/Blade creator are very good friends and long time partners with our without Nintendo this game would have a S class soundtrack.

What i was trying to express is , when nintendo goes to someone and say "Hey we would like you to create a exclusive RPG for our console" for example , they pick the best team/producer/developers that there is...

now thats worded alot better.. remember respect goes to the developer not the pubilsher

Yeah i agree with you , but lets agree with something, Nintendo always makes the best moves like buying monolith... and partnering with Mist Walk , i mean they could choose ubisoft to make an rpg...dhasudas (thank gods this didnt happen)

Its not fair to bring up Koji Kondo, because he's one of the godfathers of Video Game Music.  Just like you can't bring up Koichi Sugiyama when trying to talk about Nobuo Uematsu or Yasunori Mitsuda, because he supersedes them and influenced them.

I'm not that familiar with Mitsuda's music yet. I've heard a lot of praise about him, so I'm looking forward to this.

Just play Chrono Trigger and Chrono Cross.

I will!

You didn't get my comparison, Yardbirds->Zeppelin is the exact same thing in regards to Hard Rock when comparing Kondo to Uematsu.

Maybe The Beatles -> Queen is the better example (for me at least, I think that Queen is a much better band than The Beatles).

Well, obviously I didn't get the comparison, both because I was focusing on what Shonen said and because I don't know who the 'Yardbirds' are.  Sorry.

But I agree, about what you said about Queen.  Despite that fact however, and my personal opinion of the Beatles aside, the Beatles did start the 'Rock Revolution'.  It just was in my opinion a different revolution than people give them credit for.  In effect, they started the first 'pop' and 'boy band' revolutions.  Which tons of bands soon followed.  And an entire genre of music then was created to 'counter'.  So in that way, the Beatles were 'bigger' than Queen or really any other Rock band...but at what cost.  I mean, they even tried to counter their own music.

That page of history behind us however...my comment before was just reaffirming the fact that there's certain composers who came before Uematsu and Mitsuda who stand alone in the gaming industry and set the standard.  And Koji Kondo was one of them.  And the big insperation for Uematsu and Mitsuda was Koichi Sugiyama.
