I think you should check the link for Zelda Reorchestrated before you bash it, Cassidy. I think you may be thinking of something else.

I actually liked these better than the Hyrule Symphony one.


Also, the Zelda Reorchestrated stuff is only available off that website as downloads, it isn't commercially available anywhere.


While we're on the subject of soundtracks, I'd also recommend the Shadow of the Colossus soundtrack. Amazing stuff.

I believe this is what you're referring to, Cassidy? (EDIT: After listening to this one, it's not so much a "Hyrule Symphony" as it is a "Hyrule String Quartet".)


Also, I highly recommend you all check out Zelda Reorchestrated. There's some brilliant stuff on there. Reorchestrated music from most of the games in the series (Calling the Four Giants from the Majora's Mask soundtrack gives me chills).

It really brings me back to being 13 years old again when my friends and I would get together and play Mario Party and Super Smash Bros. together, and my N64 controllers slowly died... sigh. All of us used to have raw palms minus a layer of skin due to all the controller spinning games in the first Mario Party. Ahh, memories!


Man, the same thing happened to me!

Okay, the minigame was the one where you sit on a bicycle, and you spin the control stick to pedal the bike and power a light bulb before a Boo attacks you. I had read somewhere that the easiest way to beat it (being about 10 years old, my motor skills weren't the best) was to hold the controller on its side and spin with the palm of the hand. So I did, and I tore a huge chunk of skin off of my palm. Never played another Mario Party game since.
