Volume of the songs have been raised significantly. Unfortunately most tracks lack official titles from the game's sound test and a few tracks labeled unknown I've probably missed but are hard to find due to the game's somewhat convoluted game flow. I don't have the game myself so I can't do a thorough search for song locations. If anyone can help with all official track titles from the sound test gallery and where the songs I've labeled unknown are, I will update the rip with those corrections ASAP.

But for now, Enjoy the "Sticker Star 2" rip!

!!!!!'s Nexus of Music Thread 2.0 (An Updated Thread) (Thread 119192)

thanks!

Great job as usual !!!!!

On a unrelated note, will you ever give Paper Mario (N64) the OSV treatment? It's the only one that you're missing.

Thanks a lot!

Thank you for this

Thank you, the game is visually and sound wise, very good.

To me, it's not Sticker Star 2, it's much better. Salt is everywhere.

Sure, it's not the great, old school Paper Mario. Sure, the battle gameplay is flawed and boring, but it's not as shit as people claim it to be. It's okay. It's just normal. Maybe generic. Story is not as deep as other games, but it's still fun and interesting, visually the game looks good with the HD treatment.

It still feels like wasted potential, but if it's up your alley then feel free to enjoy whatever it has to offer. I won't spur in response a mountain of text regarding the game's shortcomings.

I've had enough disappointments this year alone to care about these kind of things anymore.

Sweet, thanks!

lol

Of course it's wasted potential. It's not the masterpiece everyone wanted it to be, but it's not the worst piece of shit every PM fans makes it out to be. For me, this game is less shit than all salty PM fans have been proclaming it is without giving it a single chance. It actually looks much better than the trailer we were given months ago. Visually, it's good, the HD benefits it a lot. Story wise, it's decent. Nothing out of the ordinary, but decent, could've been much worse. Gameplay? Same thing. The battles are not really that good. But one can get by. It's not as much of a fuckfest as Sticker Star was, and there's sizeable differences.

Salt people really need to give this game a chance. It may not be the godly masterpiece they dreamed about, but it's a decent, okay game as its best, not the shitfest they keep proclaiming it is, since it was announced. Yeah, I've played a bit of the old Mario and can understand the fans frustration, I myself am frustrated a bit, too, at how Nintendo (no, Miyamoto) has treated Star Fox badly, but still, I am not that blind to new games and completely say they are a major piece of shit since Day 1.

This game is not a masterpiece but it's not a huge piece of shit either. Generic maybe, normal game. Nothing as bad as people claim it to be. All the writing I'm seeing makes me want to get the game now.

TLDR; I'm liking it, I think it's getting hate it doesn't deserves, it's not as bad as people make it out to be, don't shit on me because I'm enjoying it. I want to get it, in the future, I'm gonna enjoy it probably and most improtantly; THE MUSIC IS GOOD. I wish they'd release a CD of it!

*Some reading later*

My biggest issue is the battles & replay value, it barely has much going for that. I don't like the fact that I'm forced to use something on a boss, it lessens any creativity the player can do. And they only have them because it's apparently wacky and random to them. It's good for one playthrough and that's about it honestly.

This game can look visual great, sound like heavenly choirs to my ears, but if the gameplay is so lackluster it can bring the whole thing down in one fell swoop!

I guess Nintendo Fanboys have learned to settle for Mediocrity a while back... :laugh:

I can agree with you there, but to me it's still not the HUGE piece of shit people proclaim it to be. It's also got wonderful writing. Some darker parts too, as you go on deeper in the game, like in TTYD and SPM. That's something people wanted and still ignore it.


I guess Nintendo Fanboys have learned to settle for Mediocrity a while back... :laugh:

Is that.. directed towards me, ManRay? I thought you were my homie. Don't insult me like that. I may like Nintendo, but I'm far from a fanboy. I shit on Miyamoto. A Nintendo fanboy wouldn't. He fucked up Star Fox big time, and even PM if you want me to be real. PM: CS is not MEDIOCRE, it's just not a masterpiece. It's okay.. it's just not a HUGE PIECE OF SHIT! Just because I'm okay with it means I settle with mediocrity? No, thanks. I'd be nice if you respected my likes..

Nah, i meant in General. I think it's kinda sad how many Excuses have to be made.

Generic ? Then why waste Time with it, there are lots of WiiU Games coming ou.... :laugh:

Of course i respect your Tastes, and being able to criticize Starfox shows you're not a Fanboy. :P

I mean, no offense, ManRay my friend, but your opinion doesn't really count because you literally hate everything Nintendo makes, for whatever reason, each more stupid. For example, you hate every game of Zelda except one. For who knows what. I'm not making any excuse, I'm just giving my opinion. I'm not even making excuses. I'm pointing out the flaws of the game, too, while at it, I'm not forgetting. I'm saying it's not a masterpiece, but it's not a shit either. Not to mention your arguments are typically the same bullshit as always that people are tired to hear.

I think I'm gonna give up trying to defend Color Splash. I'm not even saying it's a masterpiece. I'm not even forgetting and pointing all of its flaws, but I'm still getting shit for trying to defend that game in the slightest or for actually liking it to some degree. I've been told "I guess Nintendo fanboys settle easily for the mediocre." The thing, is, this game is not mediocre, it's just normal. It's not the piece of shit all PM fans are making it out to be! Heck, it even got clever writing, on par with TTYD and SPM which they praise so much, YET it's still getting shat on just BECAUSE! Sure! The gameplay is lacking, the battles are boring, but does that have to make the whole game a HORRIBLE game as a fact? Jeez.. Sure. You didn't like it? I respect it. You point out its flaws, and I see they're true? I pretty much will agree with you and give you the reason, but I don't see how those things make this game a complete, proven shit game as you make it out to be.

You forgive me for "getting so heated up" but I'm usually a very passionate person with whatever I like, and I don't often like being "called out" for liking something. I prefer being told "Sure, you like it, good for you, I respect your opinion, but I don't like it", that's much better. :P

Great job as usual !!!!!

On a unrelated note, will you ever give Paper Mario (N64) the OSV treatment? It's the only one that you're missing.

I've had requests of this before and I'm still not so sure. Not really fond of PM the first games music.

Yeah musically it's good, 3rd to Sticker Star/TTYD. Template wise it's pretty much Sticker Star 2, Sticker's swapped out for cards on a touch screen, Kersti, the sass talking sticker swapped out for Huey, the sass talking paint can, a SMB3 world map (though out of order), similar area stories like ridding the ghosts from a mansion, the lack of unique NPCs, same villain, hit or miss forced humor (this one seems to have more of it at least through the english localization), similar ending, etc. It is formulaic and bland like most Nintendo games nowadays. And having a poor battle system doesn't help. A visually great game doesn't really mean anything if its boring and being "better" then an even worse game doesn't equal good.

I can fully understand the "salty" people. They should definitely put their money where there mouth is and not buy this bland game then maybe Nintendo and Intelligent Systems will realize what they've done... or throw the series under the bus due to poor sales cause no one appreciates their creative, visionary, genius ideas. :p


It still feels like wasted potential, but if it's up your alley then feel free to enjoy whatever it has to offer. I won't spur in response a mountain of text regarding the game's shortcomings.

I've had enough disappointments this year alone to care about these kind of things anymore.

Yup and sorry to hear about the disappointments.


I guess Nintendo Fanboys have learned to settle for Mediocrity a while back... :laugh:

It's true... *sigh*

That's not true, i like F-Zero. And the Wars Series.

Also, i've never argumented.

I'm not even gonna bother anymore. Okay, this game is a major piece of fucking shit and it's the most horrible game ever made, just because it's not a copycat of "MUH PAPER MARIO 64".. No offense, !!!!, but have you even played this game? All I see is you following the trailers impression, which, are totally horrible, but playing the game is something totally different. If you had played it, you would know the writing is good, it's got some parts that are as good as TTYD and SPM.

Yes, indeed, Nintendo fans are the worst, and I wouldn't say they "are okay with mediocrity" since, loads of mediocre games of Nintendo are being called out around.

I'm just gonna keep doing my own thing, being "happy with the mediocre" and enjoy my game, since at the end, my opinion is my opinion, and your opinion is yours which I respect. Why bother "argumenting", I'm not helping my case, at all. Excuse my passion. :laugh:

That's not true, i like F-Zero. And the Wars Series.

As far as i remember, i have never attacked your Opinion, just the Things the Opinions were about. ;)


It's true... *sigh*

Maybe that was a bit harsh. :laugh:

Forgive me, i grew up a Sega Kid... ;)

I'm just gonna keep doing my own thing, being "happy with the mediocre" and enjoy my game, since at the end, my opinion is my opinion, and your opinion is yours which I respect. Why bother "argumenting", I'm not helping my case, at all. I'm just being annoying and probably over the top. Excuse my passion. It's too much sometimes! :laugh:

It's better for me to enjoy the thing on my own and not care about what others say. It'll be much better. :P By the way, !!!!', wonderful ripping job!

A visually great game doesn't really mean anything if its boring and being "better" then an even worse game doesn't equal good.

Exactly how I feel. If they're going to continue with this "approach" to the series, they need to either drop the turn-based combat and make it like SPM or make it an RPG and not this half-assed thing they have in SS and CS.

I'm not even gonna bother anymore. Okay, this game is a major piece of fucking shit and it's the most horrible game ever made, just because it's not a copycat of "MUH PAPER MARIO 64"..

If you had played it, you would know the writing is good, it's got some parts that are as good as TTYD and SPM.

Actually they're trying to recreate Paper Mario 64 seeing from Sticker Star and Color Splash. That doesn't make it bad, but they're also not doing anything unique with it, well sort of. Given how that Black Paint acted it seemed they had something but management probably shot it down before they could do anything with it. Writing is debatable, but for the most part I did enjoy it.


Yes, indeed, Nintendo fans are the worst, and I wouldn't say they "are okay with mediocrity" since, loads of mediocre games of Nintendo are being called out around.

To be honest a lot of people don't like having mediocre. I myself don't expect perfection, but when some of the games that are currently being called such, it's not too hard to see why.


I'm just gonna keep doing my own thing, being "happy with the mediocre" and enjoy my game, since at the end, my opinion is my opinion, and your opinion is yours which I respect. Why bother "argumenting", I'm not helping my case, at all. Excuse my passion. :laugh:

So you don't want something to improve...? I mean yea opinion is opinion, but the way that's worded sounds like you'll just take anything regardless of actual quality. Granted people have various levels of tolerance, so I'll just stop. >_>


Exactly how I feel. If they're going to continue with this "approach" to the series, they need to either drop the turn-based combat and make it like SPM or make it an RPG and not this half-assed thing they have in SS and CS.

I've been asking myself the very same thing honestly. Why have turn based combat in an ACTION/ADVENTURE game?? It bogs the pace down horribly! But given these new developers had no prior experience with the series whatsoever, I'll leave it at that.

Thanks a bunch!!! :D

The way I see it, I think they're just trying to do their own thing. I don't think they're trying to do anything like in the other games, at all. Everytime they make a new PM I don't see them looking back on the other games, at all. But that's just me.

No, what I meant with that comment, is that I'm gonna stop defending the game, because it's useless, people just shit at me for the fact that I'm liking this game, not because it's undefendable. Meaning I prefer to just stop rather than keep being fired up and make arguments and stuff. I'm just going with the fact that I'm enjoying it and that's all that should matter (to me)

I agree with you there, in fact I've said it as one of the flaws of this game. Which isn't free of flaws. I just said that in my opinion it's not as worse as people claim it to be, that's it. IN MY OPINION.

Don't really care about the game itself, but is the music style more like Sticker Star or did they go a new direction this time? The crazy jazz inflection of SS's ost is maybe the only core thing I liked about it.

I'm not even gonna bother anymore. Okay, this game is a major piece of fucking shit and it's the most horrible game ever made, just because it's not a copycat of "MUH PAPER MARIO 64".. No offense, !!!!, but have you even played this game? All I see is you following the trailers impression, which, are totally horrible, but playing the game is something totally different. If you had played it, you would know the writing is good, it's got some parts that are as good as TTYD and SPM.

I've seen enough of the game, pretty much 95% that's minus the tags in the rip I've prob not noticed. It's definitely not a horrific game. The music is great and the writing is fine for the most part aside from the forced jokes (probably the localization team's fault) and lame, predictable, and not at all clever main plot. The gameplay is gimmicky and tedious looking, and much of the world is bland to me. I like some ideas the game has visually like paint showcasing an enemy's health but these good creative ideas are wasted on what is ultimately bland with mediocre gameplay. If your fine with how it is, I'm definitely not gonna hold it against you. I don't like Super Paper Mario much but at least it tried to have a different world much like TTYD did instead of the typical grass world, desert world, water world, lava world, etc motif that every single mario game has to have now.


Yes, indeed, Nintendo fans are the worst, and I wouldn't say they "are okay with mediocrity" since, loads of mediocre games of Nintendo are being called out around.

The only games I ever see called out are the lesser big franchises like Metroid (with Other M post release/Federation Force) and Star Fox (with Zero), as they have fans fare less naive then the Nintendo fanboys who dogmatically defend their company to death and how they can do no wrong.


I'm just gonna keep doing my own thing, being "happy with the mediocre" and enjoy my game, since at the end, my opinion is my opinion, and your opinion is yours which I respect. Why bother "argumenting", I'm not helping my case, at all. Excuse my passion. :laugh:

It's fine it really is. But even you acknowledge it has these flaws, flaws the games before it did not have. A new Paper Mario should expand on the formula of its predecessors to be a better game instead of another to be forgotten gimmicky experience where its only interesting the first time through.


Maybe that was a bit harsh. :laugh:

Forgive me, i grew up a Sega Kid... ;)

Nah just hyperbole. It really is the truth and it happened with Sega too. :p


Exactly how I feel. If they're going to continue with this "approach" to the series, they need to either drop the turn-based combat and make it like SPM or make it an RPG and not this half-assed thing they have in SS and CS.

It would have been better received with traditional turn-based style gameplay but you know "the customer isn't always right".

Less jazzy but similar to Sticker Star.

That's too bad. A less jazzy Sticker Star is a Sticker Star I want nothin' to do with.

I haven't listened to the whole soundtrack yet, but from the few tracks I've listened to it seems to be a pretty nice soundtrack, even though it's not as good as Sticker Star's. I think the Paper Mario series (hell, the entire Mario series) needs to have BotW-esque refresh.


I guess Nintendo Fanboys have learned to settle for Mediocrity a while back... :laugh:

To be honest, that can be applied to almost every single major developer lately. I feel like most of this gen's "big" titles kind of come and go. The only games that actually delivered seem to be Bloodborne and The Witcher 3.

OUCH.

The soundtrack to this game is really solid from what I've heard so far (downloading this rip now, about 3 hours into the game at present). I'm also really liking the game. I skipped Sticker Star, so I can't comment on that one, but it's been enjoyable so far. This isn't Thousand Year Door, Paper Mario 64, or Super Mario RPG, but it's fun. It feels like more of a mix between Super Mario 3D World and Paper Mario due to its course-based format.

As long as we're all done yelling at each other about game quality, I do believe the soundtrack's what we came here for. xD Great job on the ripping, man! Sorry 'bout the missing titles...I got nothing.

Wait! The Final Battle (Phase 2) is called "Blackout". That's a start, right?

And I know that the battle theme is simply called "Fight!".

Unfortunately, the site for the Color Splash rip you link to keeps referring me to some less than commendable sites, which wants me to download some probable malware, while having it where closing the intruding text box opens it up again later. Thanks for the rip, I guess, but I'm not risking getting malware on my computer.

It seems that you didn't read his main post about how to download ?

It seems having an ad blocker up sent me to the offending link (NCrypt would say "warning: you have an ad blocker, etc. etc., continue to download?" And hitting continue would lead me to the offending page. Ironically, I have an ad blocker to AVOID situations like that! haha

Turning it off sent me to the password input screen and I was able to download the soundtrack problem-free. How bizarre!

Anyway, that might be worth nothing, but if not, thanks for the upload of this anyway, !!!!! It's much appreciated!

for Firefox, there is a add-on which called "AdF.ly Skipper" and it makes waht it called. Very helpful

Thanks !

thanks

A bit late on this, but I've found the �official� full tracklist from the game's sound test gallery. Look at the bottom of this link here:

http://www.mariowiki.com/Prisma_Museum

As for the unknown tracks, as far as I know 5-42 Danger Event (Unknown) is called Attack of the Pokeys which plays in the Mustard Caf� area, although I have no clue about the others.

Not a huge fan of the names..

UPDATE 11/12/16:

-Re-tagged tracks to those from the sound test according to mariowiki thanks to 3DMan
-Some "official" tags have been altered a bit to avoid being generic and keep with consistency such as many of the boss themes

Much appreciated, mate.

Thanks a bunch man! :-) And yeah, I still found this game quite enjoyable overall, despite also being among those who really wishes the series would go back to its great RPG roots like with the first two games, which were masterpieces imo, especially TTYD. It doesn't compare with Super Paper Mario (which was also still a great game imo, despite doing away with some of the things from the first two that I loved) either for me, but it's still decent. Its greatest strength imo is that it has a lot of variety. The writing is also pretty funny as always. The music and gameplay is a step down from the first three games imo, but it's OK. In terms of story and characters though...the standards on those aspects of the series seems to really have fallen at this point...

Excellent!

FanTASTIC find dude, thank you so much for uploading this.

Thank you!
