Super Smash Bros. Brawl Main Theme: Difference between revisions

The '''''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'' Main Theme''' is, as the name implies, the main theme of ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', playing in the opening movie and The Great Invasion cutscene. It was first heard alongside the reveal of ''Brawl'' itself in the game's first trailer at [[E3 2006]], before being posted on the [[Smash Bros. DOJO!!]] much later. The song was composed by {{uv|Final Fantasy}} series composer [[Nobuo Uematsu]], and its lyrics were supervised by {{uv|Super Smash Bros.}} series director [[Masahiro Sakurai]]. The translated lyrics are seen in the closing video of the [[Subspace Emissary]], just before the credits. The melody is used in many of ''Brawl's'' original songs, albeit usually without the lyrics.

While the original song does not return in ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'', it returns as selectable menu music in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'' (after clearing [[World of Light]]). Its various remixes from ''Brawl'' return as selectable music in ''for Wii U'' and ''Ultimate'' for the [[Mode|main menu]], [[Battlefield]], and [[Final Destination]]. The song is also incorporated into the [[credits]] medley in both versions of ''SSB4''.

*This is the first main theme in the series to have vocals.
