[@jorgemoreno5585]

I came up with several Tetris 99-style music schemes based on some of the Nintendo 64 games that can be played on the Nintendo Switch Online Virtual Console. This example is what Tetris 99 would use for a GoldenEye 64 skin if Nintendo, Arika, and Rare(Ware) made it: 99 Players: James Bond Main Theme (GoldenEye 64) 50 Players: Silo - Normal (GoldenEye 64) 10 Players: Silo - Suspense (GoldenEye 64) Victory: Runway level cleared - Plane (GoldenEye 64) Winning Results: Mission Select/Main Menu (GoldenEye 64) Defeat: Mission Death (GoldenEye 64) Losing Results: Logo Screens (GoldenEye 64, also used in death replays) This scheme will get walled by license headaches. Still, by using the Silo level themes starting from when 50 players are left, it references how the Silo level uses a countdown on Normal (Secret Agent) and Hard (00 Agent); it is why the Silo level theme's normal version would be the 50-player music in the GoldenEye 64-themed skin.Once 10 players are left, the Silo level's critical theme would play, and with an end-to-start loop so that the Silo level's critical music would continue playing until one player is left. It would induce much more anxiety and tension in Tetris 99 than in GoldenEye 64.

There should be a PAC-Man theme to preserve the music from PAC-Man 99

[@jorgemoreno5585]

You are referring to a Tetris 99 skin based on the default themes from Pac-Man 99. We really miss that maze royale. I made Microsoft PowerPoint animations based on the Nintendo battle royale games (Tetris 99, Pac-Man 99, and F-Zero 99). Some of my Tetris 99-based slideshows use music and sounds from Pac-Man 99, and each one has different music, sounds, and visuals depending on the Namco arcade game that appeared in Pac-Man 99. Furthermore, with Windows Movie Maker, I edited some sounds from Pac-Man 99 into some videos of Tetris 99 or F-Zero 99. The most notable change is the "K.O.!" voice clip from Pac-Man 99 when the player knocks out a Gray Bumper or another player in F-Zero 99. When I edit sounds from Pac-Man 99 into videos of Tetris 99, I use the maze royale's "K.O.!" voice clip on moments where the player knocks another player out of the puzzle royale match. This is not to mention the occasional, alternate music choices from different games.
