Next Wednesday musical hashtag!

It's @miona's VGM Wednesday.

Last week reminded me of some of the classic @ocremix tracks I used to listen to.

Here is Estradasphere's big band inspire remake of Super Mario Brothers 2's overworld music entitled, "Super Buck II." https://ocremix.org/remix/OCR00577

Check it out!

For @miona's #VGMWednesday, this week we have the fabulous theme of #EightBitBangers.

I have to rush to the American #SuperMarioBros2's first level, which had such fantastic overworld music that it still hits to this day. Check it out here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yBISfv-6hfo

So, as @miona is still on hiatus, we aren't getting a #VGMWednesday prompt this week.

So, I'll just post some random @ocremix tune.

Here's an older favorite of mine, it's a jazz remix / remake of the #SuperMarioBros 2 overworld theme by Estradasphere. And it is so well done.

Levels of Nintendo trivia:

Novice - Did you know #SMB2 was originally a game called #DokiDokiPanic?

Intermediate - Did you know #DonkeyKong was originally going to be a #Popeye game?

Expert - Did you know Donkey Kong's programming was outsourced to #IkegamiTsushinki?

So this past weekend I had the opportunity to educate my 10yo nephew about Super Mario Bros. 2 and Doki Doki Panic. Like, unironically and in earnest, I told him about SMB2J/Lost Levels, what happened with All-Stars on SNES, and how all of DDP's enemies were absorbed into the larger Mario franchise.

I've memed so much on SMB2/DDP in the past that I'd almost forgotten how truly fascinating the whole situation actually was.
