Quotes from
"The Toad Brigade" (Super Mario Galaxy)
“This is quite a scary course. You can't jump, which means that enemies you'd normally dispatch without any problem suddenly become just that bit more menacing.”
—Liner notes in the Super Mario 3D World Original Soundtrack

"Captain Toad Plays Peek-a-Boo"[1] is a musical theme in Super Mario 3D World, where it plays in the Captain Toad's Adventures course of the same name. It quotes "The Toad Brigade" from Super Mario Galaxy and retains most of the theme's instrumentation.
