I grew up knowing of this game but never playing it, but playing the remake and hearing this theme for the first time gave me CHILLS I froze at the start before saying "They made a KoF song....IN A MARIO GAME!??!!?"
Looks like that's it for Gonzales folks, Rawk Hawk has him on the ropes and... Wait, who's that!? IT'S PRINCE MUSH, OUT FROM UNDER THE RING! AND HE'S GOT- *_SWEET STAR SPIRITS HE'S GOT A CHAIR!_*
Small spoiler: They really missed an opportunity to actually buff him on the second climb through the Glitz Pit ranks. For all that talk about secret training and asking for a rematch with his "new and improved, reborn" self, it really doesn't make much sense that he just shows up with the exact same stats.
He’s just THAT confident. It makes sense if you’re into wrestling, he’s playing the heel persona, cheating to get to the top and having a hugely inflated ego.
In my first match with him, he got frozen on the first turn amd then I immediately proceeded to basically thrash him without getting damaged bc he died before the freeze effect was done. Poor guy.
When my nieces were playing this back in the 00s and I was doing voiceovers for it, that is exactly what I did for Rawk Hawk. I basically made him a combination of Randy Savage and an 80s rock star.
This chapter has made me realized how full of boss fights this chapter is. If you’re including the mini bosses, there’s 4 total fights in this chapter (Iron Adonis Bros). 3 without mini bosses. (Bowser, Rawk Hawk, Macho Grubba). Prince Mush is optional but is considered a boss fight too.
Yes, that’s a lot, but if you compare this Chapter to Chapter 8, it doesn’t have nearly as many bosses. Chapter 8 has 5 boss fight and 8 bosses if you count them individually, with, in this order, Doopliss, Marilyn, and Beldam, Gloomtail, Grodus, Bowser and Kammy, and, finally the Shadow Queen.
It’s because the music isn’t as hard as it should be I can agree that this game is good because I played the original and I still have it to this day but they tone down all the music to wear it sounds more like a downgrade version of it it would’ve been way better for this game if they made it even wave hard rocking in better sounding like they’ve done with the other games
Coming from someone that adores wrestling, this might be my favorite theme of the bunch for the remaster. This track FEELS like it belongs to a Heel wrestler like Rawk. (For those that aren’t aware, heroes/villains in wrestling are often called Faces/Heels. In lucha it’s Rudos/Technicos ((Forgive me if that’s incorrect it’s been a hard decade since I’ve watched lucha)) ) And when you think about it, Rawk is a perfect heel stereotype. He flagrantly disregards rules, sabotages other competitors, is generally arrogant and full of himself… and his theme perfectly fits that.
Rawk: I'll grind you into dust! Me: And I'm going to grind you! Rawk: I... wait what?! What kind of sick person are you?! Me: What, No! I meant I'm grinding you for Star Points and Coins! Rawk: ...What kind of sick person are you?!
So all Nintendo needs to do is course correct in their followup and give us Rawk Hawk as a partner. Would like to see how far the guy can develop as a fellow adventurer.
I always wanted this. By the end, he'd really respect Gonzalez as a fellow man and a fighter. Missed opportunity on Nintendo's part. Long live RAWK HAWK! 🤘🤘🤘
I think this is the cleanest upload here right now. I noticed in other videos the song sounds a bit off, but here it sounds like it flows pretty well. Or maybe that’s just me getting used to how the remake song sounds now :p
Here’s what’s gonna happen brother. The Rawk doesn’t suffer and fools, the Rawk isn’t here for no foolishness. The RAWK is going to RAWK and roll all over you so hard that even the cheep cheep seats are going to be a splash zone brother!!! You may think you bested the Rawk last time…. But this time’s different!!! Cause the RAWK IS MADE OF METAL!!!! FEEL!!!! THE!!!!! RAWWWWWWWWWWK!!!!!!
Really says a lot about someone when you can clobber them in two turns and Superguard their attack in the rematch. If you’re wondering, Power Plus, Jumpman, All or Nothing is a +3 to jump attacks. Spring Jump has a base attack of 6*2 (12), but these buffs bump that up to 9*2 (18), which is stronger than Supernova. That’s 36 HP taken off by Mario alone, and Bomb takes off another 6, so that’s 42 damage total.
So much better and hype than the original. The original one isn't bad at all, but it sounds more like you're fighting someone in a disco. Now THIS is fighting a wrestling champ music
It's not bad by any means but many aspects I liked about the original either weren't carried over at all or were shifted to fit a completely different direction altogether. The OG sounded closer to a 90s rock anthem with a more spacious and grandiose opening setting up the fight like a spectacle where the main melody was also given more space to carry through the song in a clear way while being accompanied by synth types one would typically associate with music of arcade fighting games. The remake sounds more like a heavy metal concert with a more muffled guitar that sounds busier when put alongside its heavier background riffs, creating more of a "wall of noise" effect. The synths also sound more organ-like which give the track a more "gothic" and "ominous" quality which is a very different direction from the original. It's good as a stand-alone alternative piece doing its own thing but for people expecting a remake track that is more faithful to the direction, tone and spirit of the original it may not scratch that same itch. Then again, maybe the more experimental approach when it came to remaking the music for this game was intentional because they were trying to find a way to bridge the gap of the classic paper mario with the more modern entries like origami king. They may not have added the classic music badge into the game for contrast if the music was already faithful enough.
Yeah if the baby yoshi didn’t exist, rawk hawk would’ve been a really fitting partner, and he’d be the second partner you face in battle before they join you.
Maybe theres something wrong with my headphones. I can very clearly hear the original song's melody in this, but I couldnt hear it when i was fighting him. Which made me like this remix less. I felt the same way with Macho Grubba. I'm going to listen back to his theme now too
I'm happy they give you the option to swap between both versions at least. But yeah I was really holding my breath for this one, and they did not disappoint.
Put my opinions into words perfectly here. Prefer the original's vibes more but they both are good. Is it wrong to say I'm still a little disappointed though...?
Ironically I feel like this remade song is made less intense than the original, in a weird way. In the original game, this song was the only one that was all hard rock. But in the remake, almost all the boss fights tracks have thrashing rock guitars now. Even the Chapter 3 regular battles sound just like this. This track doesn't stand out so much anymore. It's not a worse version, just a little less unique.
Ahhh yes the theme of- Actually pretty big spoiler ⬇️ -mashing too hard when you wanted to actually face Prince Mush again… Nah I’m sorry but rawk hawk is a joke after that Prince Mush Battle! Rawk is so lucky Grubba took out Mush cause ain’t no way rawk hawk was gonna be able to beat mush! All that smack rawk is able to talk is all thanks to grubba 😭
To be honest, I actually like that the main melody is a bit drowned out. Really subtle way to convey that the glamour of the ring isn’t all to the Glitz Pit.
