Sorry I couldn't find a video of the game boy camera playing the track (it's the link menu music so not many people mess with that)

I was looking up the Casio MT-40 ok (apparently the song uses some preset for the rhythm/riddim)

also supposedly the composer for Earthbound did Game Boy Camera too

Edit: it might be an Eddie Cochran reference but I doubt it - I think the actual game boy bassline sounds exactly the same and everything

This is cool actually. I remember seeing this laser show that was projected onto the royal castle wall here in Stockholm when I was eight or so. Thousands of people were watching and I was probably the only one who realized they had the FF4 cave song playing in the background.

No one believed me...

the composer for Earthbound...

I thought most people knew this. I used to think it was awesome until I realized that the music copywrite issue is the main reason why Earthbound will never come out as DLC for the Wii.

I thought it was because nintendo are cunts

Edit: Even if that was true they could just do some MR. DREAM shite

or like with Metal Gear 2 in the special edition of Snake Eater were it was some random prerendered Solid Snake face

According to a Starmen.net article the idea was proposed but NCL refused to give in to NoA's lawyer's demands to change the game.
