And for "Coin", a gameplay video: (press "1" for an easy timestamp)

Awesome work.
Couple things:
- Center-align the second-page title (it's a bit off).
- Center the mf in the first measure.

Notes look good.

Thanks a lot! Fixed.

I approve

As with most of the NES ports, the NES version had the music pitched differently, and the same key was re-used in the "Mario Bros. Classic" remake in the Super Mario Advance All-Stars ports remakes (+ Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga). I thought the players out there should learn a little bit of history.

- Hm, page 1 has a fair amount of empty space, do you think you could try putting a couple of them on the same system - you could move Coin up to the first page? You don't have to, but it seems like it could be a better use of space.
- "Demo" and "Game Over" are about equally long and dense. If you put "Game Over" on one system, I would suggest putting "Demo" on one system too.
- Put the tempo marking for "Restart" in dotted quarter.
- Page number and title on page 2 aren't vertically aligned. (Check to make sure this is correct in whatever template you're using, too.)
- And I know it's kinda silly, but could we put a tempo marking for "Coin"?

Other than that, looks great!

Done and done.

I fiddled with the systems and page size and now it's just one page. Made room for a neutral dynamics note, like the last two arcade sheets, and the order is exactly how I believe it should be: music and fanfares first, and any sound effects last.

With all due respect, I don't think this sound effect needs any specific tempo or rhythm. It's a coin jingle; the point is to switch from one note up 5 semitones as quickly as possible, like a grace note in any noted speed, and however long the quarter note needs to be played will be up to the performer.

Alright, sounds and looks great! Thanks for taking the time to think about it.
