Enemy Course (theme): Difference between revisions
(Not really a quote exclusively associated with this theme: Talking Flowers tend to say "Love that sound" in several occasions involving strings of beamed Note Block (such as in Scram, Skedaddlers!), as well as the other Break Time which involves a classic tune (such as Wonder Token Tunes which plays the SMW Bonus Room theme, and Bouncy Tunes which plays the Delfino Plaza theme)) |

Super Mario Advance[edit]
Super Mario Advance features a chiptune arrangement of "Enemy Course" that can be heard during Battle Mode in the game's remake of Mario Bros. This arrangement returns alongside the Mario Bros. remake in Super Mario World: Super Mario Advance 2, Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3, Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3, and Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga.
Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3[edit]
An arrangement of "Enemy Course" by Taiju Suzuki similar to one heard in Super Mario All-Stars can be heard in Game Boy Advance remake of Super Mario Bros. 3, Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3. This version is more compressed than the Super Mario All-Stars version and uses different, lower-quality synthetic instruments.
