Super Mario Galaxy 2 Music - Throwback Galaxy

[@Wiizpig]

This was translated as "Nostalgia Fortress" in the Italian version. A perfect fit imo.

[@rotundmonibuv5103]

Same thing in Japanese, Korean, and Spanish.

[@yahiryellow1]

@@rotundmonibuv5103 and is that all? Nintendo is known for hiding secrets in their games

[@kewlsanic]

@@rotundmonibuv5103 in korean, it is more like familiar fortress.

[@catomax26jeev]

Same in spanish, "Fortaleza Nostálgica" which means nostalgic fortress

[@the-LorK]

Oh yeah. I'm Italian and I'll remember that name for my entire life. It was my favorite galaxy, and I played it only for the music.

[@smokedsanjl]

Crazy how accurate this is

[@deleetiusproductions3497]

It can't be coincidence that Mario 64 was released in 1996, almost the exact same gap length.

[@ade1174]

I'm hoping for a 3D All-Stars 2 with 64 DS, Galaxy 2, and 3D Land on the Switch 2.

[@giegue6148]

you can tell just how much love and care was poured Into this galaxy by the devs just by the music

[@Kagetora-]

Agreed. The devs did such a good job on this game. The Super Mario Galaxy games were my childhood

[@User13565jk]

Fact

[@greatspaceadventure]

i’m your 64th like :)))))

[@BerdlyGaming]

I’m sitting here being nostalgic over a level that’s meant to make you nostalgic for another level

[@SuperStarStudiosPlush]

So true

Lmao that so true

[@jumentoqueanima]

Lmao. True.

[@DanyRobertHunselar-sq3kp]

Playing this level was like meeting an old friend... 😢

[@MacDaddyPrince]

Ikr so true

[@TheGrumpyOldBear]

When I first started this level and mario was flying through the sky before he landed I was like "Wait what what omgomgomg" The nostalgia hit me hard.

[@the1ringer]

Double nostalgia. What a unique feeling.

[@Thangalang21]

Oh my God! The first time I heard this in Throwback Galaxy I almost cried with tears of joy =, ) Super Mario 64. Good times, good times.

Man the 90's kids got a huge blast to the past in 2010. We got this awesome remix from super mario 64 and Toy Story 3 which we all grow up on. I'm proud of being a 90's kid.

[@shepoj]

follow-up did you play it now?

[@lockiidraws]

My eyes literally lit up when this started playing. I was like "Oh my god. They finally did it. They finally made my brain explode twice."

[@tjallan53149]

I was kind of sad about this game's plot not being nearly as good as that of Super Mario Galaxy 1, but this level made every penny I spent on the game worth it- seeing it and listening to this music just made my night and left me in a good mood for days.

[@DuGongggg]

This was SOOOOOO nostalgic for me.

[@EEEEEE1337]

dayumm that funky guitar to the left is groovin

[@LandonBurke-l1n]

If you don't tear up in happiness listening to this song, you're not a human being.

[@Quetzal-A1968]

I'm a human, are you one?

[@ramusic2480]

Or it's prolly cuz some of us played Galaxy 2 without playing 64 lol

Guess I ain’t human then.

[@stopduty2009]

This..galaxy...is...AWESOME! So many memories. Nintendo, thank you :)

[@aetherguy1020]

I can just hear the memories here.

[@zzyzx0788]

I got excited as hell when I saw this level. Then I heard the music. I nearly shat myself. Nintendo. Thank you for getting your fan base from time to time.

[@Soso22214]

When I reached this galaxy I screamed of nostalgia! Ohhhhh, I loved how they did that!

[@LANmaster7]

I can safely say that this was one of my favorite galaxies!

[@The0x539]

If I had an AWESOME level editor, an AWESOME orchestra, and AWESOME composing skills, which I sadly have none of, I would make a full WORLD or two or three to do this for every SM64 level.

[@justaperson3622]

i love this song in both remake and classic :D

[@adrianhdz138]

1:03 "Hey!"

[@SuperStarStudiosPlush]

Those four notes before the “Hey!” sound like a mix between Beethoven and a horror game ost when you play it multiple times

[@Windavee]

This is so funky and great. Awesome groove

[@pengiunanimatorguy]

I’ve been looking for this song for literally forever

[@garrettkidney]

Bloody awesome!!!

[@kevthedino17]

Even though i havent played the original level, i couldnt keep my head from asploded at hearing this. Thats fan service for ya.

[@2hands797]

Totally reminds me of Super Mario 64! Nintendo ALWAYS brings back memories in every game they release. NINTENDO FOREVAH!!

[@ThunderbirdIV25]

That's true, though I still argue it can be considered, at least partially, a FPS, because most of your weapons (various beams and missles) and the way you view the world (your visor) make it seem like an FPS. Simply because a game is a first person shooter, that doesn't mean it can't have other traits. Borderlands is an FPS, but it is also an RPG.

[@Putuk22]

When I first saw that level and heard this track, I was all like "NOOO! NOOOO!!! Why must you torment me again like you did over 10 years ago?!?". Needless to say, I was horrible at Mario 64 as a kid.

[@CodyRyanWaz]

im am horribile at sm64 more then you putuk

[@PolimarioProductions]

I never played SM64, but I have SM64DS. *Hears this song* *Ravin' mad from nostalgia* Nintendo is working it's magic!

[@AdmiralBobbery123]

@VideoGameScrapBook I use that site sometimes! I'm glad that you posted this on the site. I LOVE the soundtrack in this game.

[@nemosapien]

I really enjoyed the addition of the guitar in the background and the thumping bass/drums at 0:40

B'y far m'y favourite Galaxy, this was the first time i played a N64 level and this did not disapointed me

[@WaffleDude9001]

@missHPfan2 God, people do not take gaming seriously. The artwork of some of the best games was featured in the Smith-freaking-sonian. And don't get me started on the music. Nowadays, video games are legit forms of entertainment and social networking. I salute you for your effort and speaking your mind.

[@CHCHuser]

This is gonna play at my wedding.

[@euphymako]

This sounds so awesome when listened to in HD...

[@StrongIntelligent]

@JapaneseMarioLuigi Well fludd was just nintendo's first experiments with the double jump. I think of it as an early version of the spin in Galaxy.

nostalgic fortress

[@Kurikazu]

i nearly stopped breathing for 5 seconds when seeing the galaxy on the transmission video,i then slapped my face to see if i was seeing things but i wasnt,i then started breathing again and i knew,I have to get this game

[@HammerBroYoshi]

Then there's the Dee Ess port. With 29 more stars Play as Weegee, Wario or e-ven Yoshi the music has tons of swag no matter where your at whether you are underwater, on the ground or even in a clock *music fades out*

[@missHPfan2]

@WaffleDude9001 The Smithsonian? Whoa. I need to tell my band director that. Was Sky Station Galaxy's first theme featured? I'd be uber amazed if it wasn't. That one's just beautiful.

[@ThunderbirdIV25]

Right, I get that. Though there are still parts that have the fast intensity of an FPS. But even so, it's really Nintendo's only FPS. So First-person Adventure, First-person Shooter, call it what you will.

[@Brandutzu]

Most i like in this melody, is the BASS part :) Groove funk jazz. NICE

[@HyperSonicXtreme]

It's 1996 all over again, but now jazzy.
