Choosing a game

Before we go rocketing off trying to record and assemble videos for NSM, we have to choose a game first! We'll use this topic for discussion, and you'll be able to nominate games here for an eventual poll.

Here are two quick things to check when choosing a game to nominate.
- The game has a decent number of good sheets. If there are only a few sheets for a game, or they're all bad, then there won't be enough material to work with.
- The sheets from the game aren't all terribly difficult. If it takes too long for the performers to perfect it, that's a huge time sink, and the project would likely drag on and on.

And the nominations are...
- The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time
- The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past
- Kirby's Epic Yarn
- Super Mario Galaxy
- Pokémon Red Version & Pokémon Blue Version
- Pokémon Gold Version & Pokémon Silver Version
- The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker

And the winner is:

In that regard, I think some games that would work well are Super Mario Bros. 3, The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, Pokémon X & Pokémon Y, and Kirby's Epic Yarn.

They all have a good amount of popular appeal and some quality sheets at a manageable difficulty level.

as far as Zelda soundtracks go OoT isn't one of my favorites, regardless of how cool it would be for me to play the Nocturne of Shadow.
Perhaps A Link to the Past, Wind Waker, or Skyward Sword would be better

@Noc: You're free to nominate what you want! Just be sure to check the actual sheets as I mentioned above - last I checked Wind Waker has some great sheets but also has a bunch of awful ones.

Out of those three I think a link to the past is the best for this

I'd feel most comfortable with either a Mario game (maybe Galaxy?) or Kirby's Epic Yarn, since I know the OST pretty well.

Pokemon Red/Blue, since we have the entire OST.

Undertale maybe? we have a good amount of sheets on site. If we need more, I nominate Pokemon Black/White
When given the choice between adulting and music, choose music every time.

Galaxy is pretty much the one Mario game I'd be okay with, but I'm also cool with Mario Kart.

Cool. Added to the list.

Lots of good sheets by Deku, difficulty seems manageable too. Added.

I second that. KEY has some great songs that we do have sheets for. Added. As for Galaxy...

Quote from: Ōkami~MD on April 12, 2016, 11:02:07 AMI would back E Gadd for Mario Galaxy music
Galaxy sheets seem a little tougher than the ones from the games mentioned above (and many need some touching up too), but I think it could work out. Added.

The sheets can get quite difficult at times, but they'd be easy to tone down in terms of difficulty, and we have tons of good material. Added :P

Quote from: braixen1264 on April 11, 2016, 07:01:10 PMPokemon G/S
Sure. I have most of the sheets available, even if they're not on site yet. Added.

I'm a little hesitant to go with Undertale since Undertale music covers have been done and over-done on the Internet by now and I'd like the focus of our project to shine light on something that you can't already find too much of. Something you'd only be able to get from NSM, perhaps. As for Pokémon Black & White, most of the sheets are either quite difficult or just flat-out awful. That said, if you want to nominate either of those, that's okay!

Which one? Also Mario Kart sheets tend to be on the faster/more complex side of things.

I agree. I've added it to the list, but if we end up choosing it, there's a lot of sheet re-working to be done...

I should continue those replacements I started....
