Ok well its still up in the air what they will allow us to do, but so far they sound fairly interested, well at least they have said it sounds like aninteresting idea but I have yet to talk to anyone with any descision making power so its undecided right now. I am not sure about Rare games but I beleive Nintendo still owns the rights to DKC so thats possible.
I am already considering all the main themes from the main games but I was also thinking of doing some of the not so popular games like Kirby, Fire Emblem, Ice Climbers, Smash Bros, maybe soething from Pikmin.
The ideah is to build enthusism and hype for Revolution by remixing old classic tunes to modern music and generating feelings of nastalgia as well as creating buzz for the system. We would like to have the sound track bundled with a game or offered as a give away for reserving a system or something along those lines, its not something we expect to sell in stores except maybe specialty shops and of course GameStop, etc.
I mosty am excited about this project because it allows me to actualy work with Nintendo (yeah)
and lets me help them in thier marketing areas that they so desperatly need help in. I just think it would be awesome to have a techno cd that plays all yoru favorite Nintendo tunes to dance music that build hype for the new system and recreates those feelings that you had playing those old games when you was a kid.
I will update this thread as often as I get new info so stay tuned because this is potentialy the most exciting thing I have ever had a chance to do. (to Ian Sane if you are serious about doing a track or two PM me and I will let you know what I can do)
I can not say much else because we are in negociations but I can say that they ARE talking to me and are somewhat interested. Anyways thanks for the suggestions.
