Unpopular opinions about the Mario series

[Nysic]

holy shit
it's not that recognizable but if you set it to half speed it becomes so much more obvious
how did i miss that

Orchestra is a tad overrated

Disco, jazz, funk, and metal all suit Mario much more.

when did they remix it in mario kart?

though it sounds radically different

I never realized that, but I see it now. It makes sense, considering they used a (much more recognizable) version of the Super Mario World finall boss theme in the Super Mario Kart Bowser Castle tracks. And yeah, a new remix of it would be great.

Orchestra is a tad overrated

I agree. And another unpopular opinion, speaking of, is that Galaxy's gameplay is better than its soundtrack.

 

[Xiahou Ba]

That's unpopular? I think its soundtrack is MILES better than its gameplay.

And Galaxy doesn't even have the best Mario OST. That belongs to Mario & Sonic. If you want a pure Mario game reasons, Mario Kart 8 has it better. Why, in my opinion? It has far more variety to it: electronic (Electrodrome), jazz (Dolphin Shoals), country (Moo Moo Meadows), Rock/Metal (Big Blue, or Bowser's Castle), dance/disco (Cheese Land), AND orchestra (Cloudtop Cruise, Mario Kart Stadium).

Bowser needs less big orchestral themes and more rock and/or heavy metal themes.

I personally want to see more jazzy Bowser themes like in 3D World.

New opinion: I think the Paper Mario style was really ugly before Sticker Star. Even then, the main characters are still ugly.

And before someone brings up Buzzy Beetles, Paper Mario stole credit from Para-Beetles.

I preferred Mario Kart Wii's soundtrack, to be honest. I think 8 is the best game OVERALL, though.

Super Mario RPG is not a good game.. At least not as good as any other Mario RPG.

I'm gonna have to agree with BLOF. MK8's soundtrack is some of the best in the series.
