My thoughts exactly. I really appreciated little things like if you bought Tifa, Barrett, or Aerith’s mii costumes, it would change their spirit fights. I’d be happy if the classic modes could get the same love.
@@JustJoshinYaPac Yeah but that's just mostly a stretch. All his fights already take place in Boxing Ring to reference his series where he fights his opponents in his games.
I like how when talking about shulk in palutena classic mode, he didnt actually spoil the game, because if you played it you know why shulk is in there
Palutena's battle against the 3 Pits and Dark Pits is more likely a reference to the multiplayer mode of Kid Icarus Uprising, which had teams of three face off against each other, (Light vs. Dark), with the appropriate Pit being the "leader"
I love this series, it's so much fun! Next can you make a Spirit Battle Origins Video? Go through loads of Spirit Battles from throughout the game and work out there costume references with the music and stage and stuff?
How would he even sperate that?! It would be more easier for him to do something like "Victory Screen Origins" where he would talk abour each fighter, and seperate it into how he always does his origin videos. Also, it would take him years to finish.
13:17 I believe that also Dracula been an undead creature (a vampire) makes sense for Pac-Man since he constantly fights against undead creatures (ghosts).
Well... Having to hear her talk about how Interesting the movie she saw on TV was for the 20th time when you boot up New Horizons for the first time during the day is not very pleasant.
Heck, update Classic Mode in general. Most of the final bosses in Classic Mode are just generic Master and Crazy Hand fights, when there’s already so many fighters and bosses that can be used to pull off the references.
Learning more about Rosalina’s path somehow makes me wish Rosalina got more spotlight in other non-spinoff Mario games: she has major roles in both Galaxy games and makes a cameo in Odyssey as a sprite, but that’s pretty much it. The rest of her appearance are Mario Kart, Party, and Sports games (fun fact, for those who didn’t know: she initially was supposed to appear in Odyssey playing a guitar on the streets, no joke)
The Robin vs Robin fight in Robin's classic mode being a reference to the Grima battle is moreso cemented by the fact that the stage music, Id Purpose, is Awakening's final map theme, and specifically the choice of killing Grima with Robin triggers one of the endings
@@FurryBayo I’m assuming you’ve played Bayonetta but I hope I’m not spoiling anything. But time travelled Cereza bugging Bayonetta and calling her mummy.
@@furby9284 I actually know about that, it's just that your comment was worded weird. So I didnt understand at first. Also to prove that I've played bayonetta allow me to fill you in on something. Whenever Bayonetta's Dad pops up in her head saying "no harm will come to you" or "I'm always watching over you my dear sweet child" he isnt talking to Bayonetta, but he is talking to Cereza.
I think it's also worth noting the specific pairing of Pikachu and Zero Suit Samus in Greninja's Classic Mode could be a reference to them teaming up in Subspace (or it could just be a stretch)
also, at one point, sephiroth gaslights cloud into thinking he is a clone. while he is not artificially created, for a good chunk of the game, everyone thinks he is
For Shulk in palutena’s route I guess you didn’t want to mention the fact that spoiler: Shulk and Fiora literally have gods inside of them (Zanza and Mayneth).
@@TARDISES oh it is? I don’t not remember the territorial rotbart in XC2 because of its high meme status for being a level 81 monster in the “Baby Starting Area”. But now that you mention it, you’re right.
Aaron, you missed ONE thing about the Link and Zelda fight in Palutena's route... seeing as it deals with gods, Zelda is the reincarnation of Hylia, the goddess who pretty much became mortal
"Next up is Ivysaur, for the Grass-type, and he's a loser idiot who has no friends with him." Pirahna Plant's like "Yo dawg, I said I'm on my way, I just didn't make the bus!"
20:11 I think that alongside the light/dark color scheme, this fight is a reference to Corrin's sisters. Peach and Rosalina represent Elise and Camilla while Daisy and Palutena represent Sakura and Hinoka
Let me tell you, it would have been really cool if Sakurai and the team updated Cloud's classic mode to have him fight Sephiroth. Also, is it me or have I seen this video before?
I know what you mean, actually. I remember a few days ago turning on RUclips and seeing what I recognized around Minute 7. Could just be a deja vu though.
I always thought a mii fighters route would mainly be them fighting fighters of their respective styles. Brawler would fight characters like Ryu, Little Mac, etc. Swordfighter has plenty of sword fighting characters to pick from. Gunner could fight characters like Samus, Mega Man, etc. That was my thought at least.
I'd personally like to see the Mii Fighters have customizable routes per each created Mii Fighter. Would add even more extra replayability, and if counting them is an issue you could just count the scores for one for each type.
7:50 Just going to ignore the fact that Sephiroth and Jenova have some pretty heavy religious themes with Sephiroth basically being Edgelord Jesus, Sephiroth's name being an alternate spelling of Sephirot and Jenova's name being a corruption of Jehovah which is one way the herbew spelling of the name of Abraham's god, YVWH is romanized in modern times? The franchise as a whole might have religious undertones but Cloud specifically has ties to some of the strongest to Abrahamic faith followed by the Warrior of Light from FFXIV who basically all but fought the Pope in the Vatican.
An additional reference for Corrin is in the Fire Emblem Cipher 0 trading card game, there are factions depicted by colors, and Hoshido heroes are White cards and Nohr heroes are Black cards.
I just want to add something: I think Cloud's classic mode route is totally associated to his motion sickness since the french name for his route his literally called "motion sickness"
The third corrin fight is pretty cool because the other corrin is basically a corrin who chose hoshido and fights alongside the two princesses of hoshido, daisy (Sakura) and palutena (Hinoka). While you chose nohr and fight alongside the two nohr princesses Rosalina (Camilla) and peach (Elise). (I know personalities and hair colors don't match but I think that's what they where going for).
6:58 Bro, why you gotta do my boy Ivysaur like that. Well at least Plant's here now. 9:08 Ah yes the gods of Classic Mode. 9:34 "Um AcTuALly MeW iS a MyTHicAl PokeMOn." I despise people who do this. 13:45 My favourite FE heroes. 18:16 Well at least they have a reference this time. Also, thank you Ken for just standing there for like 10 seconds. Really helpful. 19:33 I guess you could say he's *not interested* in the final fight.....okay I'll leave.
Megaman in shulks route may also represent all the monado arts coming together and the ability to switch between them, since you can switch weapons in mega man
For Corrin’s classic mode: In the third battle, Rosalina and Peach are likely meant to represent Camilla and Elise, respectively, as they are Nohrian princesses who aid Corrin should they choose to side with Nohr, hence the dark-colored alts. In contrast, the opposite-gendered Corrin, who represents a Corrin who sided with Hoshido, is aided by Hinoka and Sakura, two Hoshidan princesses who act as Camilla and Elise’s counterparts and are represented by Palutena and Daisy, respectively. Having Daisy represent Sakura is kinda funny since both of their names are also the names of flowers. The second-to-last battle is doing something similar; however, instead of the princesses, the Corrins are being aided by the princes, and the Corrin that the player is controlling has sided with Hoshido instead of Nohr. The Hoshidan princes, Ryoma and Takumi, are being represented by Chrom and Marth, respectively; having Chrom be Ryoma is particularly clever since they have the same voice actor. Now, Lucina and Robin represent the Nohrian princes, Xander and Leo; however, Lucina really should’ve been replaced by Ike here given that Xander is male and both him and Ike wield large legendary swords. Robin as Leo is a great choice, though, given that both of them are tacticians who wield magic and even have similar personalities. And master hand and crazy hand aren’t the worst boss in the world considering that the true villain of FE:Fates is often represented as a disembodied head and has the power to control and resurrect literally anyone (kinda like having the player control the character in smash and respawning) and also starts wars (the battles in smash themselves). Still, I think that fighting a giant Ganondorf with the white hair skin, and having that being followed up with Rathalos would’ve been a better boss fight.
I still hate that Shulk does not have Galleom as the final boss. It would suit because Galleom is a robot and Shulk has a hatred towards robots in Xenoblade chronicles
Shulk route sucks Instead of making based in the monado arts they could have done based in XC1 lore With 2 final bosses (i mean Sephiroth it's just Bosses) Galleon first and the real final boss would be Master & Crazy Hand and a withe shulk alt (The "Z" guy If ya know what i mean)
For Corrin’s final boss of master and crazy hand, it could be a vague reference to Anakos and Revelations where it’s revealed that Anakos was the cause of the struggle of Nohr and Hoshido as the hands causing it hence the name “BETWEEN white and black”. Additionally Revelations Japanese name is Fire emblem IF: Invisible Kingdom and the hands basically are the invisible force in everything.
Master Hand is so overly used in these Classic Modes. They decided to put in Marth, Dracula, the dragon! But not other game villains of most non-nintendo characters?!
The Ken and Ryu vs Master Hand battle is more than likely a reference to the "Dramatic Battle" mode in the Street Fighter Alpha series, where two players could take on fights at the same time in co-op.
they also appear at the end of isabelles route, which focuses on female fighters. sure, there are no female bosses in smash, but other routes have proven it does not necessarily have to end in a boss fight
Another thing to point out for Cloud’s Classic Mode is that not only are (almost) all battles on vehicle based stages, but all of the fighters here have controlled some mode of transportation - even the Mario characters with karts.
Yeah since its the only NES/Famicom Kirby game existed and it fits perfectly, however they should of picked The Fountain of Dreams than GB Dream Land stage instead.
2:20 Samus has a similar color pallet to Metal Man and their helmets are red. That's basically all they have in common. 2:34 Quick Man and Captain Falcon also both have red helmets as it would happen except theirs also both have yellow adornments that curve at similar angles.
A bit more info on Cloud being in Palutena's path. Whilst this is more closely linked to Zack, in Crisis Core, there is a goddess who makes a brief appearance called Minerva, whom Genesis believes is the goddess from his favourite tale, LOVELESS. She can be fought as a secret super boss.
Oh come on why couldnt villager vight Marx. At first you'd expect him to be a weak little guh but he becomes god and become a black hole. Dont think i forgot wii fit trainer she or he could have fought giga bowser giant heavy turtle and he could have wii fit trainer could have been helped doctor Mario. Greninja could have fought giga bowser or rathalos representing a dual type of fire/dragon. Palutena sure i can understand master and crazy hand but some other good options would have been marx or Dracula. The end of Marx's game he became a god, for dracula the same logic as simon and Richter. I no nothing about fire emblem to say anything for lucina or robin. Shulk could have fought galleom to represent the mechon. Bowser jr could have fought giga bowser to represent bowsers fury and before you say "hey idiot bowsers fury came before ssbu" but after the game realese there could have been an update for bowser jr to fight giga bowser. Cloud could have fought rathalos representing the dragon that he and sephiroth fought and that was a fake memory but screw you. I can respect master an crazy for corrin but considering that corrin is a dragon he could have fought rathalos
Poor Ivysaur. If only Piranha Plant had been in the base game, then he could have had a friend. Greninja's Classic Mode should have ended with Rathalos, representing the dragon type.
Corrin classic round 3 is supposed to represent both royal families fighting against each other both corrin represent themselves daisy represent sakura (hoshido) palutena represent hinoka (hoshido) Rosalina represent Camilla (Norh) Peach represent Elise (Norh)
Dark Link was also first formed as a test for Link in Zelda 2, he appeared next as a mirror creation from the Water Temple in Ocarina of Time, and his last official appearance was in one of the 4 Swords games in which he was also created by Vaati. So yeah, that's all 3
18:38 Well the route's _name_ clearly references his motion sickness. I feel sorry for the guy in OO, constantly having to ride airships to get to each torosion.
9:26 The Mirror of Truth can create exact copies of the reflected person; the Dark Pit is the way he is is because he's an incomplete clone of Pit from the destroying the mirror while being reflected
6:56 The closest to grass type are the Pikmn but they're pretty much all other types... Red are fire type, yellow are electric type, blue are water type, flying are flying type, white are poison type and rock are rock type. Not sure about purple though.
Fun question, if characters outside the Smash roster became puppet fighters for Galeem and Dharkon. Who would the two deities claim? I could see Galeem having * Yu Narukami * Knuckles the Echidna * Klaymen * Bandana Dee * Tails * Izuku, Ochako, Tenya, and Shouto * Banjo and Kazooie * Rayman * Ruby Rose * Optimus Prime * Regime!Superman * Waluigi * Shovel Knight * Spongebob * Magalor * Geno * Copy X While Dharkon has * Gooey * Cuphead * Henry Stickmin * AoSTH!Robotnik * Angry Video Game Nerd * SMBZ!Metallix * Mimikyu * The Heavy * Hat Kid * Monokuma * The Knight * Onslaught * Joker * Mad Rat * Wart
9:23 The Mirror of Truth creates an exact *copy,* not an opposite. Tue reason Dark Pit was created because the mirror was cracked before the copy was fully finished.
Pac-Man's Classic mode also has two other cool details. 1. In the fight against Duck Hunt, no music plays in the background. As far as I am aware, this is the only time in the entire game where there would be no music in the background for any specific fight. This is nice nod, since the original Duck Hunt game never had any music play in gameplay outside of the occasional jingles, which is handled by the Duck Hunt stage itself. 2. To hammer-in the "original" versions of stuff, the Dracula fight has another cool detail. Normally, the music in the background would be "Nothing to Lose" (phase 1), into "Black Night" (phase 2). However in Pac-Man's Classic mode, "Dwelling of Doom" plays for both phases. Not only it is a retro theme directly taken from the classic game, but it is specifically the Famicom version of the song. Fun fact: I also distinctly remember an earlier build of the game, whether it was the pre-release version or an early patch, where the "Dwelling of Doom" nod didn't work properly. It would play "Dwelling of Doom" on phase 1, but then it would transition into "Black Night" in phase 2. Obviously, this would be fixed later.

7:50 Just going to ignore the fact that Sephiroth and Jenova have some pretty heavy religious themes with Sephiroth basically being Edgelord Jesus, Sephiroth's name being an alternate spelling of Sephirot and Jenova's name being a corruption of Jehovah which is one way the herbew spelling of the name of Abraham's god, YVWH is romanized in modern times? The franchise as a whole might have religious undertones but Cloud specifically has ties to some of the strongest to Abrahamic faith followed by the Warrior of Light from FFXIV who basically all but fought the Pope in the Vatican.
Master Hand and Crazy Hand make sense for Shulk, since the art after MACHINE is the the one the enables him to kill GOD.
You should do Victory Screen origins after this series
Mega Man really got a fair shake with his Classic mode. Wish some others got that treatment.
Every time a classic mode route ends with Master and Crazy Hand, do an hour of homework. You'll probably have done all your homework three times over.
You keep on being disappointed by Master and Crazy hand being the final bosses. But who would YOU have as the bosses?
An additional reference for Corrin is in the Fire Emblem Cipher 0 trading card game, there are factions depicted by colors, and Hoshido heroes are White cards and Nohr heroes are Black cards.
Aronitmar when master and crazy hand appear: *YOUR EXISTENCE OFFENDS ME*
I just want to add something: I think Cloud's classic mode route is totally associated to his motion sickness since the french name for his route his literally called "motion sickness"
6:59
Megaman Leaf Shield: Am I a joke to you?
Now we just gotta wait for the dlc and ultimate
7:42 Also you know, Zelda is the reincarnation of the goddess Hylia and Link is the reincarnation of said goddess' chosen warrior.
The third corrin fight is pretty cool because the other corrin is basically a corrin who chose hoshido and fights alongside the two princesses of hoshido, daisy (Sakura) and palutena (Hinoka). While you chose nohr and fight alongside the two nohr princesses Rosalina (Camilla) and peach (Elise). (I know personalities and hair colors don't match but I think that's what they where going for).
I’m laughing at the thumbnail. Why?!?!
Master and Crazy hand represent the Normal type because you fight them so much. They're the the Rattata of the Smash universe
6:58 Bro, why you gotta do my boy Ivysaur like that. Well at least Plant's here now.
9:08 Ah yes the gods of Classic Mode.
9:34 "Um AcTuALly MeW iS a MyTHicAl PokeMOn." I despise people who do this.
13:45 My favourite FE heroes.
18:16 Well at least they have a reference this time. Also, thank you Ken for just standing there for like 10 seconds. Really helpful.
19:33 I guess you could say he's *not interested* in the final fight.....okay I'll leave.
Megaman in shulks route may also represent all the monado arts coming together and the ability to switch between them, since you can switch weapons in mega man
Oh smash 4...yeah, I remember that
For Corrin’s classic mode:
In the third battle, Rosalina and Peach are likely meant to represent Camilla and Elise, respectively, as they are Nohrian princesses who aid Corrin should they choose to side with Nohr, hence the dark-colored alts. In contrast, the opposite-gendered Corrin, who represents a Corrin who sided with Hoshido, is aided by Hinoka and Sakura, two Hoshidan princesses who act as Camilla and Elise’s counterparts and are represented by Palutena and Daisy, respectively. Having Daisy represent Sakura is kinda funny since both of their names are also the names of flowers.
The second-to-last battle is doing something similar; however, instead of the princesses, the Corrins are being aided by the princes, and the Corrin that the player is controlling has sided with Hoshido instead of Nohr. The Hoshidan princes, Ryoma and Takumi, are being represented by Chrom and Marth, respectively; having Chrom be Ryoma is particularly clever since they have the same voice actor. Now, Lucina and Robin represent the Nohrian princes, Xander and Leo; however, Lucina really should’ve been replaced by Ike here given that Xander is male and both him and Ike wield large legendary swords. Robin as Leo is a great choice, though, given that both of them are tacticians who wield magic and even have similar personalities.
And master hand and crazy hand aren’t the worst boss in the world considering that the true villain of FE:Fates is often represented as a disembodied head and has the power to control and resurrect literally anyone (kinda like having the player control the character in smash and respawning) and also starts wars (the battles in smash themselves). Still, I think that fighting a giant Ganondorf with the white hair skin, and having that being followed up with Rathalos would’ve been a better boss fight.
I still hate that Shulk does not have Galleom as the final boss. It would suit because Galleom is a robot and Shulk has a hatred towards robots in Xenoblade chronicles
Shulk route sucks
Instead of making based in the monado arts they could have done based in XC1 lore
With 2 final bosses (i mean Sephiroth it's just Bosses)
Galleon first and the real final boss would be Master & Crazy Hand and a withe shulk alt (The "Z" guy If ya know what i mean)
For Corrin’s final boss of master and crazy hand, it could be a vague reference to Anakos and Revelations where it’s revealed that Anakos was the cause of the struggle of Nohr and Hoshido as the hands causing it hence the name “BETWEEN white and black”. Additionally Revelations Japanese name is Fire emblem IF: Invisible Kingdom and the hands basically are the invisible force in everything.
Master Hand is so overly used in these Classic Modes. They decided to put in Marth, Dracula, the dragon!
But not other game villains of most non-nintendo characters?!
The Ken and Ryu vs Master Hand battle is more than likely a reference to the "Dramatic Battle" mode in the Street Fighter Alpha series, where two players could take on fights at the same time in co-op.
so are masterhand and crazyhand confirmed to be princesses now?
Well, whether or not they are princesses, the most important thing is that neither of them are Mama Peach...
they also appear at the end of isabelles route, which focuses on female fighters. sure, there are no female bosses in smash, but other routes have proven it does not necessarily have to end in a boss fight
Another thing to point out for Cloud’s Classic Mode is that not only are (almost) all battles on vehicle based stages, but all of the fighters here have controlled some mode of transportation - even the Mario characters with karts.
12:53 It's actually a reference to Kirby's Adventure on the NES.
Yeah since its the only NES/Famicom Kirby game existed and it fits perfectly, however they should of picked The Fountain of Dreams than GB Dream Land stage instead.
2:20 Samus has a similar color pallet to Metal Man and their helmets are red. That's basically all they have in common.
2:34 Quick Man and Captain Falcon also both have red helmets as it would happen except theirs also both have yellow adornments that curve at similar angles.
A bit more info on Cloud being in Palutena's path. Whilst this is more closely linked to Zack, in Crisis Core, there is a goddess who makes a brief appearance called Minerva, whom Genesis believes is the goddess from his favourite tale, LOVELESS. She can be fought as a secret super boss.
Congrats to you for going through all of these and finding origins
Oh come on why couldnt villager vight Marx. At first you'd expect him to be a weak little guh but he becomes god and become a black hole. Dont think i forgot wii fit trainer she or he could have fought giga bowser giant heavy turtle and he could have wii fit trainer could have been helped doctor Mario. Greninja could have fought giga bowser or rathalos representing a dual type of fire/dragon. Palutena sure i can understand master and crazy hand but some other good options would have been marx or Dracula. The end of Marx's game he became a god, for dracula the same logic as simon and Richter. I no nothing about fire emblem to say anything for lucina or robin. Shulk could have fought galleom to represent the mechon. Bowser jr could have fought giga bowser to represent bowsers fury and before you say "hey idiot bowsers fury came before ssbu" but after the game realese there could have been an update for bowser jr to fight giga bowser. Cloud could have fought rathalos representing the dragon that he and sephiroth fought and that was a fake memory but screw you. I can respect master an crazy for corrin but considering that corrin is a dragon he could have fought rathalos
18:38 wait cloud has motion sickness?!?!?!
I never thought I could find a character I can relate with
Yep. It was revealed much later into FFVII story, it was even referenced in Cloud's reveal trailer for Smash 4
Shulk should’ve fought Galleom at the end of his Classic mode to reference Metal Face.
No it doenst since Metal Face can fly in midair while Galleom cant.
@@courage1363, it’s close enough
You'd think Snake would be in Dark Pit's route since he was cloned from Big Boss
Villager route should’ve ended with Marx
Poor Ivysaur. If only Piranha Plant had been in the base game, then he could have had a friend. Greninja's Classic Mode should have ended with Rathalos, representing the dragon type.
gotta love how tetrabit is more creative coming up with ways to say "lol its master hand" than the smash team were creative with theming the bosses
12:59 You forget. Kirby starred in one of the NES/Famicom's end-of-cycle hits: 1993's Kirby's Adventure.
Important info that you missed in the bowser jr part is that all the characters that he fought with are princesses. (yes lucina is a princess)
Corrin classic round 3 is supposed to represent both royal families fighting against each other
both corrin represent themselves
daisy represent sakura (hoshido)
palutena represent hinoka (hoshido)
Rosalina represent Camilla (Norh)
Peach represent Elise (Norh)
Dark Link was also first formed as a test for Link in Zelda 2, he appeared next as a mirror creation from the Water Temple in Ocarina of Time, and his last official appearance was in one of the 4 Swords games in which he was also created by Vaati.
So yeah, that's all 3
Saying the fight against Marx "takes place out in space" is an understatement since that entire mode takes place in space
Feels like these batch of fighters have the best references
DK is actually a pretty good representation of Wood Man due to their similar coloring and the fact that both beat their chests
They could've used Galleom to represent the Steel type, or Rathalos for Dragon type, or Dracula, Ganon or Marx for Dark Type.
18:38 Well the route's _name_ clearly references his motion sickness. I feel sorry for the guy in OO, constantly having to ride airships to get to each torosion.
9:26 The Mirror of Truth can create exact copies of the reflected person; the Dark Pit is the way he is is because he's an incomplete clone of Pit from the destroying the mirror while being reflected
6:56 The closest to grass type are the Pikmn but they're pretty much all other types... Red are fire type, yellow are electric type, blue are water type, flying are flying type, white are poison type and rock are rock type. Not sure about purple though.
Fun question, if characters outside the Smash roster became puppet fighters for Galeem and Dharkon. Who would the two deities claim?
I could see Galeem having
* Yu Narukami
* Knuckles the Echidna
* Klaymen
* Bandana Dee
* Tails
* Izuku, Ochako, Tenya, and Shouto
* Banjo and Kazooie
* Rayman
* Ruby Rose
* Optimus Prime
* Regime!Superman
* Waluigi
* Shovel Knight
* Spongebob
* Magalor
* Geno
* Copy X
While Dharkon has
* Gooey
* Cuphead
* Henry Stickmin
* AoSTH!Robotnik
* Angry Video Game Nerd
* SMBZ!Metallix
* Mimikyu
* The Heavy
* Hat Kid
* Monokuma
* The Knight
* Onslaught
* Joker
* Mad Rat
* Wart
6:57 and that's why rillaboom is one of my picks for DLC
9:23 The Mirror of Truth creates an exact *copy,* not an opposite. Tue reason Dark Pit was created because the mirror was cracked before the copy was fully finished.
Pac-Man's Classic mode also has two other cool details.
1. In the fight against Duck Hunt, no music plays in the background. As far as I am aware, this is the only time in the entire game where there would be no music in the background for any specific fight. This is nice nod, since the original Duck Hunt game never had any music play in gameplay outside of the occasional jingles, which is handled by the Duck Hunt stage itself.
2. To hammer-in the "original" versions of stuff, the Dracula fight has another cool detail. Normally, the music in the background would be "Nothing to Lose" (phase 1), into "Black Night" (phase 2). However in Pac-Man's Classic mode, "Dwelling of Doom" plays for both phases. Not only it is a retro theme directly taken from the classic game, but it is specifically the Famicom version of the song.
Fun fact: I also distinctly remember an earlier build of the game, whether it was the pre-release version or an early patch, where the "Dwelling of Doom" nod didn't work properly. It would play "Dwelling of Doom" on phase 1, but then it would transition into "Black Night" in phase 2. Obviously, this would be fixed later.
