"Mario Kart Tour": New Content Additions Ending After 10/4/2023; Still Need Major Assistance on Other Related Matters

Posted by Merit Celaire on Wednesday, September 13, 2023 - 10:52 AM

All right, faithful friends/supporters/listeners of these music operations as a whole, I have one more news tidbit before I prepare to head out (which is split into two seperate cases); this time around, it focuses on the Mario Kart Tour installment.

It has come to our attention a few days ago that Nintendo announced the popular Mario Kart Tour mobile app installment will no longer have new content updates for it after 10/4/2023. Although it is sad news to hear, let me also take the time to say it's been a huge honor for me to do Super Nintendo music styled arrangements of some of the most addictive course theme songs to date from this installment; if you haven't had a chance to listen to the covers that I've done targeting stuff from this game so far, please don't hesitate to check them all out right here. Additionally, if you've run into other possible song candidates that I might have overlooked and hope I'll take into consideration from this installment down the road, let me know via this form (just ensure that you've picked "Mario Kart Tour" from the dropdown list in question 2A).

Finally, this is also a very good opportunity to remind you all reading this that we're still in great need to find out if there are any credible leads to who are the confirmed song composers for the Mario Kart Tour installment itself. I'll be rechecking with my contacts later this afternoon to see if there are any possible breakthroughs they can relay to me; however, don't forget that you can make a difference in resolving an active case that we've posted on this section of our site since late January of last year. And if you have run into any credible leads on the matter that I should know about to investigate further on, please don't hesitate to let me know as soon as possible. Thanks in advance for your help on this, all; and see you folks later.

"Nintendo Direct" Incoming for 9/14/2023 (And Other Related Matters)

Posted by Merit Celaire on Wednesday, September 13, 2023 - 10:09 AM

Good morning, all; I have just received word from my sources that during the course of tomorrow morning, the Nintendo company as a whole has their latest quarterly Nintendo Direct presentation slated for posting during the course of tomorrow morning on 9/14/2023. Timeframes for the United States area this time around are 10:00 A.M. (EST) / 9:00 A.M. (CST) / 8:00 A.M. (MST) / 7:00 A.M. (PST) and the said presentation can be viewed here.

Once again, I'll be checking the media here very carefully to see if there will be any Mario related media involved in it; afterwards, if any Mario game series installments are featured, when I gather related materials together, we'll see there might be any "music arrangements outlook" priority changes that we might need to note since this article from a few months back.

And speaking of which, I'm still hoping that later this afternoon, we'll snag the chance to get another "Music Arrangements Outlook" article written up related to the special Nintendo Direct posting that was shown a few weeks ago revealing main details for the upcoming Super Mario Bros. Wonder installment (which can be found here). Stay tuned on that angle; hopefully we can get this out of the way for sure before the new general Direct gets posted tomorrow morning. See you all later.

Two Quick Music Operations News Tidbits Related to "Super Mario Bros. Wonder"

Posted by Merit Celaire on Saturday, September 9, 2023 - 09:43 PM

Good Saturday evening once again, everyone; there are two things that I need to share with you all music operations wise related to the upcoming Super Mario Bros. Wonder installment slated for release late next month.

First and foremost, I still haven't forgotten about making room on my schedule this coming week or the week after that to get a new "Music Arrangements Outlook" article written up focused on the recent Nintendo Direct posting that was made revealing additional details about the upcoming Mario series adventure installment. It's gotten my attention on the gameplay itself, for certain; however, the real question for our music operations here is has our "priority outlook" changed regarding planbook efforts since we elaborated on this way back in late June. You'll find out when said article gets posted on this site in due time, so stay tuned.

Second, word has gotten around that a few "teaser songs" related to the Super Mario Bros. Wonder installment have been circulating the 'net via at least one official site from Nintendo themselves. While that's a great way to build hype for the upcoming game's scheduled release late next month, please don't send any "song candidate suggestions" to me regarding stuff from this installment (via this online form) until after the scheduled release date arrives late next month. In short, yes, this game's musical score is already on my raday; however, it's still best to wait for the game itself to officially hit the store shelves when the time comes (and to also find out who are the confirmed composers for the Super Mario Bros. Wonder songs themselves).

That's all for this Saturday night, everyone; once again, keep checking back on this page for any new music arrangement operations development news as the weeks progress. Until next time around, see you awesome people later.

"Music File Statistics Rankings Document" Updated as of 9/9/2023

Posted by Merit Celaire on Saturday, September 9, 2023 - 07:51 PM

Although I'm currently in the "weekend routine" at this time, I managed to snag the opportunity earlier this morning to finally update our "Music File Statistics Rankings Document" to reflect the recent additions that were posted for these music operations late last month (which included covers targeting songs from both Mario Kart 8 / Mario Kart 8 Deluxe as well as Mario Kart Arcade GP 2). 

I'm hoping that during the course of next week itself, we'll get a new article written up for this section of the site; in the meantime, as you can tell from the rankings changelog, the updates that were made late last month have resulted in some upsets for both the "Featured Mario Game Installments" category and the "Featured SNES Music Instrument Sets" category. And only time will tell if more upsets will occur as the months progress.

I'll keep you all posted on when the new related article elaborating further on this update gets added. Stay tuned.
