The NSM Guess-That-Melody Quiz!

[InsigTurtle]

i thought the repeat sign was an alto clef at first and i almost died inside

[Dekkadeci]

Finally, I recognize 4 songs out of 10, or 40% of the songs in a quiz I didn't make! (Admittedly, it took me a while to figure out where one of the melodies was from. I had to figure out which series could get away with that instrumentation and melody combo.)

[Latios212]

put me in for having gotten 4 as well

[mastersuperfan]

I challenge you both

[Maelstrom]

Can confirm that there is a 3 way tie for first. Only one song remains unguessed: #6.

[Maelstrom]

ANSWERS:
Unless otherwise noted, timestamps are the main theme of the song, and it's pretty obvious.

1 (6/8)

Credits Part 2 - Mario Kart Wii
The most correctly guessed by far. I also took Luigi Circuit as I didn't realize how close they were to each other.

2 (1/8)

Saturos Battle - Golden Sun
Timestamp: 0:34
Probably one of the hardest ones. Kudos to Dekka for being the only one to correctly guess it.

3 (2/8)

That Person's Name Is - Bravely Default
Timestamp: 1:39

[close]

4 (5/8)

U.N. Owen Was Her? - Touhou 6: Embodiment of the Scarlet Devil
Timestamp: 0:45
Note: the original is intentionally off key so I used the same key as on site.

5 (4/8)

Dangerous Dinner - Kirby's Return to Dreamland
Intended as one of the easier ones.

[close]

6 (1/8)

Surface of SR88 - Metroid II: Return of Samus
Also would have taken "Tunnel Theme." Congrats to Oli for being the only one to get it.

7 (3/8)

Running Hell - Cave Story
Timestamp: 0:23

[close]

8 (1/8)

La Danse Macabre (Lich Yard) - Shovel Knight
Timestamp: 1:35
Ok, so this one may have been a bit too far into the song, but at least someone (MSF) got it

[close]

9 (1/8)

Dracula's Castle - Castlevania: Symphony of the Night
Despite this being a classic, Yug Guy was the only one to recognize it.

[close]

10 (1/8)

Undersea Palace - Chrono Trigger
Timestamp: 0:50
Despite it being Chrono Trigger, only Static got this one right.

Congratulations, you guys, I honestly wouldn't have been able to score a 4.

sees #10

NOOOOOOOoooooooooooooooooooooooooo

[LeviR.star]

Tonight's 10-melody quiz will be a little late tonight, guys. Sorry, I've been busy.

[Latios212]

suffering from melody quiz withdrawal

[LeviR.star]

Don't worry, folks; the 10 melodies have been chosen! I have arranged 2; the other 8 will be arranged tonight.

By the way, Dudeman; how much did you say you were willing to bet that you'd recognize any Mega Man song from this quiz?

[Dudeman]

10 bucks, if memory serves. Although I will throw in the caveat that I'm less likely to know something from Battle Network, Star Force, or Legends.

Then you should be good. It's from none of those sub-series.

Attention: due to complications, this week's Wednesday round is cancelled. I should have mine done on Saturday, after my Large Group Music Contest. Once again, sorry for the inconvenience, and thank you for your patience.
