Talk:3DS Wario Shipyard

Alleged similarity to WLSML3 main theme
How do those sound even remotely similar? I suppose a recurring extremely fast percussive riff sounds ultra-tenuously like it, with some notes at the end scrambled and not including the full thing, but that's a major leap there. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 22:44, February 17, 2020 (EST)


 * It's the part heard 12 seconds in which comes from the original theme's intro. 23:14, February 17, 2020 (EST)
 * Maybe just the four notes, but nothing afterward is even remotely similar. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 23:22, February 17, 2020 (EST)
 * There's also the course itself sharing a pirate theme and Bull Wario's appearance. I really don't see how those specific notes cannot be a reference. 20:03, February 19, 2020 (EST)
 * There's four notes with a vague similarity (and they aren't exactly a unique rhythm anyways) and then both trail off two completely separate ways in the same bar. Had the main recurring melody of the WL theme been used, that'd be a more compelling argument. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 20:10, February 19, 2020 (EST)
 * It's not just the four notes; it's the four after those four as well. The fact that it's repeated throughout the first half of the track in the MK7 song (and again, the shared pirate theme and Bull Wario), I'm not getting how you're not seeing a reference here. It's clearly not a full-on arrangement, but it's just a short musical nod. 20:24, February 19, 2020 (EST)
 * The four after don't sound alike, though. Maybe beat-wise, but not pitch-wise at all. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 20:32, February 19, 2020 (EST)

Literally the first eight notes: Compare with 0:12 to 0:14

I seriously can't be more specific.

They don't have to be 100% exactly the same but they are obviously similar. 20:45, February 19, 2020 (EST)
 * The MK7 one speeds up midway through after a rest and is a different sequence of notes? Similar, yes, enough to be considered objectively a reference, no. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 20:51, February 19, 2020 (EST)
