  • 17:2117:21, November 13, 2023 diff hist −108 Piranha Plant PipelineThree similar notes do NOT make this an "arrangement" of Piranha Plant Slide. It's likely that the same composer (Kenta Nagata) who worked on both compositions, hence the musical similarities. Sometimes composers accidentally imitate themselves without realizing it, it happens to Koji Kondo all the time. That doesn't mean they're "sneaking in references." Since there's no official confirmation that this is a reference, I'm removing it.

  • 02:3602:36, November 10, 2023 diff hist +17 GCN Yoshi CircuitThe original "Circuit" theme from Double Dash was likely composed by Shinobu Nagata (Tanaka), as she served as the game's primary composer and wrote most of the music. It's believed that Kenta Nagata's role was actually quite minimal in this game, given his name is credited second. It's not officially confirmed, so I'm changing this to include both names.

  • 22:3822:38, May 3, 2023 diff hist −3 m GCN Baby Park→‎Mario Kart Tour: In music theory, unlike the case with F#/G♭ Major, there is no such thing as "G# Major," because it would require the use of a double sharp. The notes would be: G#, A#, B#, C#, D#, E#, Fx, and G#. It would be a nightmare to read such a key signature, hence it is never used. Instead the key is only referred to as A♭ Major, because it is objectively easier and more practical to read and use, only requiring four flats. These notes are A♭, B♭, C, D♭, E♭, F, G, and then A♭.

  • 21:4321:43, February 3, 2023 diff hist +2 m Piranha Plant Cove→‎Trivia: This is a small thing, but in music, "structure" usually refers to the form of a piece (i.e. AABB, ABA, ABACA, etc.), when in fact, what's being discussed here is the time signature. (Also, just an aside, an earlier edit described this as being in 6/4, and that's totally possible given that each of the six beats are far more pronounced. A typical 6/8 is usually quite a bit faster and tends to feel like it has "two beats," with beats 1 and 4 being the emphasized pulses.)

  • 20:4220:42, October 9, 2022 diff hist −6 m GCN Baby Park→‎Mario Kart 8 / Mario Kart 8 Deluxe: G# Major and A# Major do not exist as key signatures! "A# Major" would require the use of four sharps three double-sharps ("ten sharps") and is thus completely impractical to use. B♭ Major only requires two flats. A♭ Major is preferable because it requires only four flats, not six sharps with one double-sharp (eight sharps).
  • 20:3820:38, October 9, 2022 diff hist −3 m GCN Baby Park→‎Mario Kart Tour: Unlike F# and G♭, G# and A♭ are not enharmonic keys (keys that have multiple names). In Major, there is only A♭ Major, and in minor, G# minor is generally preferred. A♭ minor *has* been used every now and then, but it is not common. G# Major practically does not exist. It "exists" the same way that B♭♭ Major and F♭ Major "exist."

  • 20:4520:45, July 14, 2022 diff hist −104 Ground Theme (Super Mario Bros.)→‎List of Mario appearances: While the majority of Super Mario Sunshine's soundtrack hasn't been 100% confirmed, the "Secret Course" theme that plays the a cappella version of the original Ground theme WAS arranged by Kondo himself. This has been confirmed by many compilation albums that have released selections of the Sunshine soundtrack and can easily be found on the Vgmdb site. Also changed the Super Mario Advance 4 section as it erroneously credited Kondo there.
  • 20:3320:33, July 14, 2022 diff hist −66 m Underwater ThemeCleaned up some of the wording here. Also removed the bit about the 3/4 time signatures being "mostly associated with a waltz," as it was better to just say that THIS music resembles a waltz. The whole tidbit about the 3/4 time signature itself being "mostly associated with a waltz" is irrelevant to this music. Furthermore, it's not entirely accurate.
  • 20:1720:17, July 14, 2022 diff hist +4 m Yume Kōjō: Doki Doki Panic→‎Miscellaneous: Italicized "Doki Doki Panic" in the edit I'd previously made.
  • 20:0920:09, July 14, 2022 diff hist +99 Yume Kōjō: Doki Doki Panic→‎Miscellaneous: Edited two bullet points. The first one I changed said something about the SMB1 Ground theme being "sampled" in the title screen music. Not the slightest trace of that theme exists in the title screen music of SMB2, it was the Underwater theme. The second bullet point about the shorter music in DDP is also completely wrong. There were no "extended rhythms" in SMB2, that makes no sense. Rather, entire sections of music simply did not exist in DDP and were then added to SMB2.

  • 16:4116:41, August 9, 2020 diff hist 0 Shinobu NagataThe title of this page should probably change to "Shinobu Nagata," similar to how Asuka Hayazaki's page is no longer "Asuka Ohta." The page is already inconsistent, referring to her as both names, even though it establishes her maiden name being "Tanaka."
  • 16:3516:35, August 9, 2020 diff hist +289 Koji Kondo→‎Song credits: I was surprised this wasn't on here. Kondo is known to have been the sound director and main composer of the game, but exactly which tunes he reworked aren't exactly know, except this one, which he mentions in this interview from 2014.

  • 22:1022:10, August 5, 2020 diff hist −20 Nintendo Switch→‎Nintendo Switch Lite: Removed the "spiritual successor to the 3DS" bit, insanely inaccurate. Fixed the wording in a prior sentence as well.
  • 22:0722:07, August 5, 2020 diff hist −2 m Nintendo DSiAgain, the DS and DSi are not separate family of systems, but one in the same. The DS, DS Lite, DSi, and DSi XL are ALL, collectively, the Nintendo DS. The 3DS, 3DS XL, 2DS, New 3DS, New 3DS XL, and New 2DS XL are all, collectively, the Nintendo 3DS.
  • 22:0522:05, August 5, 2020 diff hist +37 m Nintendo DSiJust clarifying that the DSi was not a successor to the DS as a whole, as it along with the XL model were simply new members to the DS family as a whole, and listing it as simply a DS successor here is wildly inaccurate and inconsistent.
  • 21:5821:58, August 5, 2020 diff hist −41 Nintendo SwitchThis seems redundant. Again, it implies that the two devices are separate and promotes the inaccuracy that the Switch Lite is the "3DS successor," whereas the entire Switch family has succeeded both the Wii U and Nintendo 3DS.
  • 21:5721:57, August 5, 2020 diff hist −254 Nintendo 3DSAgain, another inaccuracy. The Nintendo Switch Lite is simply another member of the Switch family of consoles (there will likely be more). It is far more accurate to say that the Nintendo Switch, collectively, has succeeded the 3DS family as a whole.
  • 21:5421:54, August 5, 2020 diff hist −2 Nintendo 3DSAgain, this is inaccurate. The 3DS as a whole is the successor to the entire DS family, which INCLUDES the DSi. The 3DS, 3DS XL, and the New models are ALL part of the 3DS family, while the DS, DS Lite, DSi, and DSi XL models are ALL collectively the DS.
