Did you remember to take the bike to Deep Darkness in the epilogue?

I sure said that!

I actually don't have the bike right now (I put it in storage), and I presently have it paused immediately after the battle - meaning, I haven't technically started the epilogue yet.

So, a more accurate thing to have said would be "GUESS WHO JUST BEAT GIYGAS"

EDIT: okay, now I have gone through the epilogue, the credits, and The Stinger.

Started up MOTHER 3.

Boney's pretty damn cool. ...for a dog, anyway. (not normally a dog person)

Wait... is that a cyborg moose boss?

Reconstructed Caribou isn't too bad if you know what to expect, but you've really gotta keep Duster on support duty.

You're getting close to the first of many very sad moments, as a warning.

I sure said that!

Oh, the boss itself wasn't really a problem.

It just made me flash back to a goddamn horrifying segment of the cartoon I mentioned in my last post.

Hey there! I just beat Earth Bound and am at the lava dungeon (completed) in MOTHER 3. New Fassad, you [REDACTED]. But I got my first 16-hits combo there, so it's not all too bad.

Anyway, I believe that of all the MOTHER 3 soundtrack, there are 2 songs which are really friggin' good: Unfounded Revenge and Fate (or Serious). Don't tell me I am the only.

Unfounded Revenge made it into Smash Bros for that very reason.

I do lots of stuff. The real question is am I any good at that stuff.

I know it's probably cheesy of me to say, but The Love Theme of Mother 3 kills me every single time.

That said, I'm more than a little addicted to Dance!

As omnipresent as it is, King P's theme is nifty too. I'm especially fond of what Piggy Guys does with it.

I sure said that!

I don't care much for the basic version of King P's theme, but I do like it as the battle music for the Pigmasks and the Pork Tank. Favorite fight theme is for the king himself, though, which doesn't really seem to remix the theme oddly enough.

I mean, the first few notes of the main melody of King P's theme are in Master P, but yeah, it's mostly scary drums and wobbly electronic sounds.

I sure said that!

Scary drums? More like freakin' epic drums.

For a GBA game it managed to sound pretty good, in contrast to other GBA games that feel like someone stuck a power drill in your ear.

Well, yeah- That was meant more as a commentary on how that track is clearly meant to be both oppressive and unstable.

I'm not actually scared of simulated timpani sounds.

King P's theme is everywhere because King P's influence is everywhere. I wish I could post a this theme with the Youtube video.

Mother 3 is full of tracks that are remixes of others. For instance, the hot spring theme is a slowed down version of the dance theme, and the cinema in NPC has a mix of the track from Yado hotel post-Time Skip. And the amount of times that 'Monkey's Delivery Service' is remixed...

Maseter Porky's Theme and Natural Killer Cyborg are some of my fav battle tracks. Uncompressed versions, of course.

After ripping the soundfont and midis personally and putting them back together, the sound is so much fuller that it's hard to imagine them otherwise. Well, the grainy quality to some scenes does add nostalgia you can't get back, so there's that.

Also particularly beautiful in hd is The Love THeme, surprise surprise.
