Isaac hasn't been anounced as Smash Bros' helper item and it's supposed they include all of them into this new game. Maybe that means he is not there because will take part of the game as playable character
There might have been a chance, but it didn't become a true franchise like Shining Force was... If they could have stayed on at SEGA, it very well could have been on their systems or maybe more likely NGPC. Maybe there's a timeline where that happened and NGPC was more of a success than GameGear?
@@Lucrei. When it comes to smaller Nintendo franchises, they want to avoid the bad luck of the number four being associated with death in Japan. So they kill the franchise off at three games. 🙃
After hearing about Golden Sun from just about every corner of the internet for the last 10+ years, finally decided to try it out when they added it to Switch Online a few weeks ago. I seriously cannot put it down. This feels like a modern game with how innovative and unique it is. Seriously a breath of fresh air for me personally. This has to be one of the best video game battle themes I have EVER heard!!!!!!!! Pretty damn sure I'm gonna be a Golden Sun fan for life now!!!!!!
The two GBA games were easily the best original titles for the handheld system. I'm glad it has finally received some recognition in recent years, it was infuriating in the earlier days of the Internet when these games dropped how everyone was still raving about FF6/7 and Chrono trigger (don't get me wrong, great games) but overlooking these masterpieces which I put on the same tier of JRPG royalty.
Motoi Sakuraba is a goddamn musician genius, the chord progressions and intelligent melodies he does are complete out of this world. Thank you Mr. Sakuraba for your inspiration, you are one of the reasons of why I love composing music so much
@@superdajoka it WILL. If a fighter is an assist trophy it cant be a fighter anymore, i dont get why ur asking for proof, just think how dumb it would look to use a fighter when the opponent summons the same fighter as an assist trophy. Do you honestly think this is like mewtwo and lucas being trophies in ssb4? It is not, cuz trophies back then didnt used to interact in the matches. Unlike asist trophyes.
Never played Golden Sun long enough to know any of the songs in the game, but I heard this totally by chance and instantly recognized that's Motoi Sakuraba. Such unique composing style, such genius!
I've never heard this before, but this comment made me wonder if I had heard anything similar. The first thing I thought of was Shining the Holy Ark, and sure enough Sakuraba-san composed that OST as well. Truly unique!
Playing Golden Sun for the first time on NSO, but I grew up with Camelot’s GBA Mario Tennis, so I’m equally as nostalgic for this sound. What soundtracks!!
Imagine a Smash Ultimate trailer where a giant green hand appears and smashes Master Hand off of the screen, the first few notes play as the camera slowly pans up from the ground and then... 0:02 *_ISAAC MAKES HIS MOVE!_*
Ironically the regular boss theme from the first Golden Sun was pretty bland (in my opinion). Isaac's battle theme and the first fight against Saturos were the best. Honorable mentions to Saturas a d Menardi (and Deadbeard), Collosso, and the Doom Dragon battle.
"Like a Glint of Light" from Tales of Symphonia is another excellent battle theme, also by Motoi Sakuraba. The man really knows how to compose battle themes.
Such great song composition! You can really feel hope and determination in the character's battle music, at 0:40 , you can sense a neutral shift in the battle. Is it good, is it bad? Then at 0:57 , you start to feel the back-and-forth trading of blows, and the unsure confidence of the fight. 1:04 you start to feel hope slipping away as the enemy whittles the hero down, until 1:12 , where he regains his stamina and continues fighting with hope of defeating his enemy, LOL! Some of the epic-ness of song writing was lost to this era, and there isn't always quite this range, but music will always speak louder than words. :)
It's funny how this pic shows Isaac letting the boulder hover using a water psynergy. But this one fits him so well, i always give the Lifting Gem to him. When it comes to moving objects, especially those made of stone, Isaac is the pro.
One of the greatest battle music of all time, right up there with the early Final Fantasy games. Such nostalgia ❤ This game was so damn great and the music is one of the many reasons
I just noticed the different bits of this theme! There are two parts: this 0:31 and this 1:42 . These two have different rhythm played. So I never know that this theme loops after the second part is played until now! This is so cool!! :D
I swallowed this game back then. A true masterpiece. At the time I was poor, I was never able to buy the suite and now I regret it, given their current price ! One day I would obviously buy it.
As I recall correctly, this game was one of the inspirations for the Epic Battle Fantasy series. Just like Kiki Kaikai (A.K.A. Pocky & Rocky) was an inspiration for the Touhou series.
My friend and I camped out in his dads farm fields and we stayed up all night playing this game with a flashlight! It was pretty spooky with the corn and stuff. What a great childhood memory.
Argh! Why, Golden Sun? Why didn't you manage to become a Nintendo franchise? You had so much promise, yet Dark Dawn ended up being a ball of unnecessary exposition and plot holes...
+ZorotheGallade Most of the crew that worked on GS1 & 2 left the company before the release of Dark Dawn. Probably why the third iteration failed to reach the heights they left on. :(
LADIES AND GENTLEMEN
CHILDHOOD.
Saturo also has a nice battle theme
❤❤❤
sᴀᴍᴇ
2020 happening, and listening to this. Suddenly I'm not so disheartened anymore.
Adolescence!
This song is the reason why I never fleed from a random battle.
ImATimeTraveler bruh so true!
Ikr 😁😁😁😍😍
U will have my head but i will stay till i become deaf!!
The Fighting was so much fun and with this theme I fight so often only to hear this one.
@@NeverbeGoodat especially if paired with the sound of spells and djinns wrath
Quite possibly the greatest, hypest, fucking ball-slappingest battle theme from any RPG ever 🤌
just wait until you hear the battle theme from baten kaitos origins (made by the same composer)
You’re goddamn right
Nah, chrono cross for one is still so much better. The thinking man’s ball slap, to a much better rhythm
golden sun is the sh
Chrono trigger also had good stuff
get this man in smash already
It wouldn't be smash bros at that point it would be Isaac smashes bros
Java Javi that's the gay porn version.
No they wanted fucking corrin instead of wolf or Issac 🤔😤😤😤
Isaac hasn't been anounced as Smash Bros' helper item and it's supposed they include all of them into this new game.
Maybe that means he is not there because will take part of the game as playable character
2 hours left! xD
Me when Golden Sun didn't become a Nintendo Franchise:
We were this close, we were on the verge of greatness.
Was it close? There were talks? What happened?
@@royfokerpoker1802 Issac is in Smash, but not as a playable character, he only appears as an assist trophy.
There might have been a chance, but it didn't become a true franchise like Shining Force was...
If they could have stayed on at SEGA, it very well could have been on their systems or maybe more likely NGPC. Maybe there's a timeline where that happened and NGPC was more of a success than GameGear?
I mean Golden Sun IS a Nintendo Franchise... they just hate it and pretend it doesn't exist like Advance Wars, Mother and F-Zero

Make sure you play its sequels too. Then you'll understand why we want a fourth game haha

Its badass huh
0:40 that moment when a meteor, judgment or procne sync with the song too well
Theme was stuck in my head for YEARS lol
It's so good that I used to wait a bit to hear that final little part at the end of the melody, which I haven't done for any other rpg to this day
i had completely forgotten it but i remember it perfecly
Motoi Sakuraba is a goddamn musician genius, the chord progressions and intelligent melodies he does are complete out of this world. Thank you Mr. Sakuraba for your inspiration, you are one of the reasons of why I love composing music so much
You're goddamn right
Star ocean, dark Souls, golden sun and many other amazing games, he's kind of like the ELP of videogames
Ah Golden Sun. The RPG game where the NPC characters bounces during the conversations.
When Isaac is announced for smash, I'll be right here
I'm looking forward to the last DLC reveal and id be very fucking pissed if it isnt Isaac
@@Nonikt How would they remove an assist trophy in only the copies that have the DLC?
@@Nonikt bruh he is an assist trophy, he cant be a fighter anymore

GOLDEN SUN TO NINTENDO SWITCH ONLINE CONFIRMED ♥️
I was waiting for this comment, but never thought from the channel itself, awesome!
@@H4t3Cl4sh I was too excited. I had to come back to this old video and leave a comment!
Still not a new game though
Nani?!
LETS GOOO!
It's incredible how good this sounds. I would listen to the hole OST and not getting annoyed, what is rare for MIDI-Scores.
Lord Giles I think the bass in this is particularly great.
Midi scores were a mixed bag and all depended on the sound team. If you were able to find great sounding instrument samples, they sounded awesome!
@@nunyabusiness69 Didn't expect to see such a recent comment lol but yeah I agree
Motoi Sakuraba was nothing short of a musical genius
@@reecerox2 he's still alive and composing. He worked on Smash Ultimate, iirc.
This song never gets old. Love my childhood days.
Golden Sun and the Lost Age are arguably the greatest RPG dualogy ever. Criminally underrated games.
That bass line is amazing
Never played Golden Sun long enough to know any of the songs in the game, but I heard this totally by chance and instantly recognized that's Motoi Sakuraba. Such unique composing style, such genius!
It's nice to hear things like this, Sakuraba is incredible. I'd recommend picking up Golden Sun - still to this day it is such an amazing game.
I've never heard this before, but this comment made me wonder if I had heard anything similar. The first thing I thought of was Shining the Holy Ark, and sure enough Sakuraba-san composed that OST as well. Truly unique!
@@reecerox2 yeah I’d pick it up if it wasn’t so dang expensive.
@@williamsanborn9195 Just emulate the game mate, Nintendo and Camelot don't stand to earn any more money from sales
The fact that i just learned about this blows my mind, no wonder why I love his work on the souls series so much
Now I'm near my 30's .... Damn .. How time flies😔
I feel you bro. I'm 31 now and it hurts. Still feel like a kid listening to this stuff
true.... reached level 35 (36 this year) and it hits me so hard.... please give me back my childhood... let's return there
33 here, you'll never get over how fucking legit this theme is. Ever.
33 and I still got my gba copy of both games 100% save files
Loaded this up on the switch last night and immediately got down to this absolute banger! So happy this game has returned to my life!
i love hearing ragnarok crash down my enemies
Fuck yeah man. This game brings back memories of 12 year oldme
That bassline oh my god
I love the mix of this song and the screen shaking abilities the characters cast, like meteor for example.
I used to sit for hours with this song blasted max on my GBA listening to this song and humming it. This battle theme is truly great.
Best JRPG-Battle Theme of all Time... And I love a lot of Battle Themes
TRy this one: ruclips.net/video/CzM5GeeLjJ8/видео.html
It's the only version of this tune on the internet

Ferniand Von Edgelord I would have changed my profile pic a long time ago if I wasn’t so lazy. Also, fuck you and everything that you stand for.
Final smash should be the judgment summon
never finished golden sun yet this theme is stuck in my head since I first heard it
Gameboy quality song kicking other versions' butts! Wow...
And this wasn't the only case, Summon Night Swordcraft Story 2 did amazing with it's opening theme.
Golden sun is the goat. Best RPG of all time.
It's music like this that makes you wanna stay and fight in every single battle.
At work 19 years later and this song pops in my head. I know where it's from immediately. I need it in Smash.
How can game has such an INSANELY EPIC soundtrack for RANDOM encounters?
Others games would use this for some crazy boss.
That's one of Motoi Sakuraba's crown jewels for ya.
Ironically the regular boss theme from the first Golden Sun was pretty bland (in my opinion).
Isaac's battle theme and the first fight against Saturos were the best. Honorable mentions to Saturas a d Menardi (and Deadbeard), Collosso, and the Doom Dragon battle.
Sakuraba is ridiculous...
This soundtrack... Tales of Symphonia... Dark Souls III ... hell even the Mario Golf music goes hard af
Guy is a legend
@@Lucrei. True
The bass...it's sublime...it's GOOOOOOOD!
Announced for Switch baby!
"Like a Glint of Light" from Tales of Symphonia is another excellent battle theme, also by Motoi Sakuraba. The man really knows how to compose battle themes.
Definitely sounds like something that could belong in Golden Sun, too
Symphonia and the Golden Sun games were two of my fav games during my teen years.
IT'S TIME! GOLDEN SUN AND THE LOST AGE IS COMING TO SWITCH!
When RUclips recommends this hours before a Nintendo direct, and it's Golden Suns 20th anniversary.
*Oh yeah, it's all coming together*
cry them a river
Golden sun more like silver sun,, am I right,!
@@yalta5060 The new spiritual successor, Silver Moon.
@@hansgretl1787 holy cow
I haven't played through this game in well over a decade and this song still gets stuck in my head randomly at times.
how can this track still be so good?
AYE! WE IN THERE!
I remember playing this game back in 2001, laying on my bed, headphones pluged to the GBA, mountain dew, no preoccupations
Isaac is a decent main
This song here's the reason why I still keep the game in my phone, even though it's memory's full.
That freaking lute section is amazing.

on 0.5 speed it sounds like an intro of a 80's TV show :D

sounds like something based on baseball
Sounding like Mikami
This is forbidden knowledge
At least once a week I get this stuck in my head. And I'm definitely not complaining.
WE BACK BOYS
when I was little I used to open my gameboy and listen to this 😜
So excited to finally see this coming to Switch
Its still not a new game though,I played the gba games too many times
missing the "SHAAAWW!" sound before the music starts
I forgot how insanely hard this song goes 😂 listen to that bassss…it’s finally available on Switch!! Go relive the golden days!!
imagine the fucking hype you get from this song for fighting a slime
Such great song composition!

@@danm8004 Well, lyrics don't have to be involved with song writing...
@@Justini0 they do. A song is sung, you sing it. What you're talking about is musical composition.
@@danm8004 There, fixed, is your OCD happy now?
@@Justini0 I don't have OCD. That's a serious and debilitating condition.
After 0:32 that's my favorite part! Especially you hear that during the heat of battle!!!
0:40 hits so good every single time
It's funny how this pic shows Isaac letting the boulder hover using a water psynergy.
But this one fits him so well, i always give the Lifting Gem to him.
When it comes to moving objects, especially those made of stone, Isaac is the pro.
Pretty sure Lift is a Mars psynergy. I always give lift to Garret, while Isaac gets carry and catch.
@@jonathanbradley4896
Nope, it's water.
Move is fire elemental. ;)
I came back here often
This song! Can't. Stop. Dancing. WHOOO!!
We really need a new Golden Sun game released for the Nintendo Switch or have Isaac from Golden Sun as a Smash Bros Fighter!
One of the greatest battle music of all time, right up there with the early Final Fantasy games. Such nostalgia ❤ This game was so damn great and the music is one of the many reasons
just a shame you only ever hear the first 10 seconds of it throughout most of the game.
Was humming this and had to see of I was in the correct key. Looked up the song, nailed it. That's a good childhood right there.
Perfect reveal music for Isaac in Smash.
Isaac summoned Judgement!
They should make a Mastered addiction for this series for the Switch. Hell it would make me buy one in a heartbeat if they did.
@referral madness yup damn autocorrect lol
GAME POINT
Wait, this ain't Mario Tennis
When you've played Valkyrie Profile and Star Ocean, you instantly recognize Motoi's work.
Who's here after the announcement of GameBoy Advance port for Switch?
The game that made me buy earphones to enjoy the music. Damn almost 20 years ago... I feel... old...
It seems like a lot of the older games back then had really great music tbh.
I love this song in the early game. This pumping, epic track going crazy as you stare down a tiny round rat holding a spork.
I just noticed the different bits of this theme! There are two parts: this 0:31 and this 1:42 . These two have different rhythm played.
So I never know that this theme loops after the second part is played until now! This is so cool!! :D
Oh the nostalgia....
Thats it, can't ignore.... feelings ... any.. more.
*proceeds to fire up the GBA with Golden Sun for the 106th time*
I swallowed this game back then. A true masterpiece.
At the time I was poor, I was never able to buy the suite and now I regret it, given their current price !
One day I would obviously buy it.
10 hours later:
Me: "Oh, right! Gotta save the world... in a minute..."
10 more hours.
golden sun isaac battle theme kicks in:
You know why you're here
Even tiil this day Golden Sun sound track is always peak.
Este juego lo jugué hace muchísimo tiempo y este tema se quedó en mi mente, justo hoy lo empecé a tararear y de una lo busqué.

But it is one
@@reecerox2 what? I think Dark Dawn expanded the world. What i hate about it is the cliffhanger. I won't rest in peace untill it's finished
Im just glad the leader of the band is of the earth element and not just the typical fire always leads trope.
Sometimes i was leaving battles on hold just so i could enjoy the full theme
Its honnestly so fucking good!
LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Best RPG of the platform. Possibly the best RPG of its era in gaming.
0:55 my favorite part
La música era tan buena que nunca escapaba de las batallas
The game that really introduced me to the RPG world :D one of the most epic ever!
still waiting for Golden Sun to be released on switch :(
Me too xD
My childhood. Back when music was a major part of a game.
Glory of old day
nice, im ready to play this on the 17th jan for Switch! 🐉
I used to have that game. rip my nintendo ds.
Man why didn't get this an arranged orchestrated ost
Isaac was so young back then, now its up to Matthew
That awesome theme burned into my head. i will never forget it
Still such an amazing game man it deserves more love
Miss this so damn much 🥺
Still goes hard to this day.⚡️⚡️
