Some good mixes here, and it's a real shame that two people now have had to drop out at the last minute. Although I suppose that balances it out somewhat, I guess.

So how long are you gonna wait to see if you get 16 more? And if you don't, will the newest sign-ups just be out of luck?

That's why I always used essentially slightly more localized versions of their Japanese names (i.e. what they should have been called):Crescent Grizzly, Tidal Whale, Volt Kraken, Shining Firefly, Spiral Pegasus, Spike Rose, Dark Necrobat, and Burn Dinorex.

Weird, when I did it last night it only gave me 30 seconds worth of track. It's working now though, so whatever.

How do I download it?

Shouldn't it be "Street War Heroes"?

Go right ahead, it's your baby. I just wasn't sure if you were going to be too busy or not.

I'm tempted to do it myself, if DarkeSword is alright with it, just because I know I'll have the time to manage it.

Who says they're not? The 3DS is very, very new (it would have been announced today had it not gotten leaked to the press awhile ago and forced an early announcement by Nintendo), and it's very likely that any games for it are still so early in development that it was easier to adapt an existing game to show off the new tech.As far as Donkey Kong goes, one thing that may or may not have been in the announcement (I was at my company's booth all morning and haven't looked at the official press releases yet) is simultaneous two-player co-op. I played it for a bit with the guy behind me in line and it seems very well-done. One nice thing is that unlike the Super Mario Wii co-op there's no collision with your partner so you can't accidentally push each other into enemies or bottomless pits.

There's not a single boss battle remix from this game on OCR (Bowser's battle theme was reused from Mario 3, so I'm not counting that one). How'd that happen? So the Fight Against Smithy track, I think, would make an awesome remix. It lends itself really well to techno, but I think a hard rock or orchestral version would sound amazing as well. So, who wants to take the challenge and make it happen?

I believe for multi-source songs you have to utilize both. If you win, you pick the source tune for the next one.

Another request, this time from a game that probably got far less attention than it deserved, Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem. An awesome game, the musical score was very atmospheric and moody. After careful consideration, I decided that this track in particular would make for some fantastic remixes.

So for a little while now I've been posting suggestions for remixes from obscure games, or tracks that aren't on OCR, or popular games that don't seem to have much representation here. This one is a little different. I was listening to Robo's theme the other day, and I had a vision. A vision that was both horrible and awesome at the same time. See, it occurred to me that Robo's Theme shares a few chords with Rick Astley's Never Gonna Give You Up. And, the internet being what it is, I think someone needs to take that concept to the next level.

There's something very wrong with the fact that we only have a single Breath of Fire II remix on OCR. I'm suggesting this track to help improve that.

I think you're actually supposed to do it by hand, like the cavemen did. Man, this contest is ANCIENT. Get with the times, people!

For a game with such a wide variety of awesome music, it's rather surprising that there's only a single remix on this site. I challenge you guys to change that. Darkness of the Mine is a fun, adventurous track that I'd love to see someone tackle.

It's from the Lion King area.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D6I_-7m38YE For whatever reason, there is a dearth of Kingdom Hearts mixes on this site. I think we need to remedy that. So let's give this fast-tempo jungle beat a try and see some more mixes from this awesome soundtrack.

I'm going to add a third vote for utorrent.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c5Dp6bxqdzw This request is from a greatly underappreciated game by those awesome folks at Working Design: Alundra. There's already one Alundra remix on OCR, but not for this particular track. Alundra had some very good music, and this track is one of the best, evoking images of the demon god you are determined to destroy and the ancient people who tragically fell beneath his sway.

Got a new one. The dropdown menus are being displayed BEHIND the embedded YouTube video for Serious Monkey Business. EDIT: Fixed now, thanks!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cOofA8ZsEfs This week's remix request is the Flea Pit from an obscure but insanely fun SNES title called Plok, which had a wonderfully inventive and, for the time, high-quality soundtrack (OCR currently has one Plok remix, which uses the title theme). This particular track is very creepy and ranges across a number of different themes, clocking in at a length 3:12 before it repeats. There is a distinct lack of Plok remixes out there, and this track in particular should make for some good ones.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vEbEjg8a_gU At present, there is one EVO remix on OCR, and it's really just an orchestral medley of a few different tracks from this game (although it does include this one). EVO has a lot of really good music in it, but this track in particular is very good, with a very haunting melody to it that I'd love to see done on its own.

Ha! I was right, Willrock's doing Metal Man again!

Hence "depending how the round goes." Still, without looking at the votes there's a 1/4 chance that'll end up happening...
