Nintendo 3DS eShop Main Theme (High Quality, 2020 Remastered)

I decided to make a better mix/master of the original 3DS eShop theme (June 2011) by creating a MIDI and soundfont for the song, splitting each part by track, adding effects, and finally mixing (with some light mastering, and remastered sounds less ambiguous than remix).
I am not affiliated with Nintendo in any way, shape or form. I merely made this because I noticed that it sounds a lot nicer than the recordings I've heard directly from the 3DS. I hope you enjoy the music.
EDIT: To clarify, I cannot give you permission to use this audio because it's a derivative work of Nintendo's property, so even though I will not and cannot stop you, you will be using this audio at your own risk. You are at Nintendo's mercy and not mine.

this sounds like the music for an overly emotional credits scene

[@Zetachu]

This is the best theme by far. They shouldn't of changed it ;(

[@sonic101official]

i think they still use it sometimes

[@will.gallegos]

If you take out the SD card and put it back in while you are in the eShop, then select something, go back to the main menu, you will get this music.

[@RediteTheGemBoy]

one word.. NOSTALGIA!

[@coolmien2485]

OF ALL ESHOP THEMES THIS WILL ALWAYS HITS ME THE MOST!

[@juggalouie666]

I'll always remember the first time my mom let me connect my 3DS to the internet, inside the hotel room we were staying in for someone's wedding. That was when I got to hear this for the first time.
I remember downloading nintendo video and watching dinosaur office/meat or die/bravest warriors. I remember downloading the Yo-Kai Watch 1 demo and playing it til I couldn't anymore. I remember begging mom for tomodachi life and how much fun I had with that game.
And now it's soon to sunset.. as all things in life do, eventually.
Thank you, 3DS era!

[@MatthewCobalt]

Great to hear this old beauty on something other than an out of region 3ds eshop.

[@doublepickaxeyt3400]

Anyone else here download Swapnote?

[@IndigoStarturds]

@Huxtable Gaming There was no Swapnote on the DSi... perhaps you're thinking of Flipnote?

[@funnkeey]

@@IndigoStarturds this is 3ds bro. dsi had dsi shop.

[@cheetahchase21]

[@KneeCutter]

Thanks for remastering this, as the old compressed version's bass actually hurt my ears lol.

[@kirboo34]

I'm so sad that this is going to close next year. This song alone was a big part of my childhood..

[@nono-nt8je]

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
I'm okay, it's just that trying to describe the emotion this song gives off causes the letter A to appear

[@AlwaysCryptic]

This brings back so many memories 😭

[@ponderingypanda]

They kept changing the eshop theme I think there was a new one recently

[@wideasriel]

Thanks for the remaster 👌

[@alisaschrock1742]

I wish they would have brought this music back, it's so zen... That other theme drives me crazy, especially while I'm downloading dozens of demos before the 3DS eShop shuts down for good. RIP ;u;

[@mango8510]

MEMORIES!

[@TOPGWAFDude01]

I need to find that one flipnote youtuber, with an 01 at the end of their username.
He was the joy to my ears, and gave me knowledge about Sudomemo, and how to make satire sound good without others turning against you by stating facts only.

[@ask343]

Great remake but I don't hear the bass

[@BedrockSolid]

on my headphones it sounds like I actually added a little too much bass, so I'm glad you provided a different opinion

[@ask343]

@@BedrockSolid it literally sounds like the lower instrument is missing tho 😵

[@BedrockSolid]

@@ask343 I think it's because the sound is mostly in the sub-bass frequencies, so if your headphones don't have good bass detail or you are listening in a noisy area you might not be able to hear it well. I'll try to remember that in the future

[@ask343]

@@BedrockSolid I was using my Google Pixel 6 phone's speakers which I believe are quite good, but now that I'm using my headphones connected to my PC I can hear it

[@B00GMAN_08]

Could you post MIDI? (I'm aware it's been 2 years since this remix came out but I'd love to remix this song and the MIDI would make it so much easier)

[@BedrockSolid]

If you can acquire the Nintendo eShop CIA from your 3DS, you can use this script to generate both the MIDI and soundfont for this theme: github.com/sugoku/cia-to-bcsar-to-midisf2

[@kitterbug]

@@BedrockSolid what did you use for the DS music, VGMTrans? i wanna find something better for midi so idk if you use it too

[@BedrockSolid]

@@kitterbug yep, for Wii and DS/DSi games I use VGMTrans. sometimes it messes up the samples or envelopes and i have to edit them manually, but for the most part it's pretty accurate and easy to use

Too flat. None of the instruments have any resonating like they do in the original. Might benefit from reverb? i'm not sure.
