6 | * Then came ''VideoGame/ChronoCross''. |
7 | ** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ine3_jdQIIs Dead Sea/Tower Of Destruction]] sets just the right tone for the area it's hardcoded into. |
8 | ** How do you make Scars Left by Time even better than it already is? [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PZ595N9NZVg Scars Left by Time, fully orchestrated]]. |
9 | ** An often-overlooked but truly unforgettable song is [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=homHQJvt09k The Frozen Flame]], a carryover from ''VisualNovel/RadicalDreamers''. And speaking of which... |
10 | %%** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5G7b4duTNEo Scars Left By Time]]. |
11 | %%** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Z6iOJTr1VY Home World - Fields of Time]]. |
12 | %%** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sl8_h_4Ahvs Chronopolis]]. |
13 | %%** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tkAK_i1-jTU Another World - On The Beach of Dreams]]. |
14 | %%** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EwaDFdEFnCw Chronomantique]]. |
15 | %%** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hoF2rBOnsb4 Leaving the Body]]. |
16 | %%** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XuwK6vn6lBA Dragon Rider]]. |
17 | %%** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gi4wQLTIqdg Magical Dreamers - Wind, Stars, and Waves]]. |
18 | %%** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6W_nDvs0QnI Garden of the Gods]]. |
19 | %%** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S-SFff8uW94 Terra Tower - Dragon's Prayer]]. |
20 | %%** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=696NDThs_nk Radical Dreamers - Unstolen Jewel]]. Mere words are useless. |
21 | %%** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UpnRWYutQy8 Prisoners of Fate]], AKA that song that plays when you fight Miguel. |
22 | %%** The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H-IJV93FQZc battle against the Dragon God]], as well as [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PsARKjhuT70 Fate - The God of Destiny]]. |
23 | %%** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sm9GLeK3syk The Girl Who Stole the Stars]]. The absolutely perfect theme for Kid. |
24 | %%** On the subject of Kid, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E3_8Y1pz5ok Burning Orphanage]], which is only played once, in a completely optional dungeon. |
25 | %%** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VMkzhO-oKXw Fortress of Ancient Dragons]], the [[DiscOneFinalDungeon Fort Dragonia]] theme. |
26 | %%** Also [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wMntblDX0Bg The Dream that Time Dreams]], the music that plays during the demo movie, and climactic song [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uVq_ioK0Bjg Life: The Distant Promise]]. |
27 | * ''VisualNovel/RadicalDreamers'' had a small selection of wonderful songs that didn't reappear in ''VideoGame/ChronoCross''. |
28 | ** The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=brNWnz2rRwo opening theme]] is quite lovely, and the track dubbed "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Eo1r_BapDP8 Final Confrontation]]" is as rousing a boss theme as any you'll hear (why it wasn't reused as Lynx's battle theme in ''Chrono Cross'' is a mystery). |
29 | ** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G7687ikwhao Gale]], the fight theme, is quite intense, while fitting well with the atmosphere of the game. A redone (and rather lackluster) version serves as the main battle theme in ''Cross''. |
30 | * ''VideoGame/{{Bomberman}} 64: The Second Attack'' had a soundtrack that simply radiated epicness. Not like you'd expect any less from Music/YasunoriMitsuda. Take [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LDglstmy6Nc the Angel theme,]] for example. |
31 | * And just in case anyone should have even the slightest doubt that Mitsuda's still got the touch: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S7YSI7W9RDA the main theme]] of ''VideoGame/SandsOfDestruction''. Yeah. He's still got it. |
32 | * Mitsuda is the longtime childhood friend of Yoshitaka Hirota (see below). And so, doing the friendly thing, he contributed a few tracks to the Shadow Hearts series. And those tracks happened to kick ass, nicely complementing Hirota's already-awesome work.[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AGWVzDhDHMc Astaroth]], for example, is among Mitsuda's contributions. |
33 | %%* ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBros Brawl''. "[[Franchise/{{Kirby}} Vs. Marx]]". |
34 | * Mitsuda only composed one song for ''VideoGame/XenobladeChronicles1'': the ending theme [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9iPQP7aDe_Y Beyond the Sky]]. All the other tracks were composed by the other composers including Shimomura. |
35 | * Mitsuda worked on an obscure and somewhat mediocre title called ''Tsugunai: Atonement''. You are not likely to have heard [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BiUInHLbf_Q this song]] from that game, but you may have heard it from the playthrough vids of the ''VideoGame/ChronoTrigger'' fangame ''VideoGame/CrimsonEchoes''. It's a pretty kickass song either way. |
36 | * He worked on [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u2S2h24xuZI this awesome track]] for ''VideoGame/KidIcarusUprising''; it's just epic. |
37 | * He had an album called ''Sailing to the World'', which is loaded with awesome. The standout would be [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z9VhdKtaT5Y Melody of Aqua]]. |
38 | * Anyone who enjoyed Mitsuda's work in ''Xenogears'' and ''Chrono Cross'' will definitely want to check out [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IlTEGf6bnwc "Xeno Cross"]], an amazing half-hour orchestrated tribute album blending together the two soundtracks. |
39 | %%* His talents even extend into mobile gaming. Behold, a [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y4ClwEmp05k boss theme]] for the SpiritualSuccessor to the Chrono series, ''VideoGame/AnotherEden''. |
