Mario Kart 8 Deluxe 3DS Wuhu Town music

Hi, I noticed you credited Ryo Nagamatsu for the Mario Kart 8 Deluxe arrangement of the 3DS Wuhu Town music. Where is your source for this? As far as I can tell, there are no official sources that confirm any composers for the music of these tracks.

- Mario54671

Putting down his name as the original composer from Wii Sports Resort may have been my intention in April, and if that's the case, then the edit that "Mario jc" made in September only clarifies that. But if you take a look at the known facts, it's not hard to draw the following conclusion: Ryo Nagamatsu was one of four composers/arrangers for Mario Kart 8, and one of eight composers for Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. Original composers coming back to arrange their own compositions for a reappearance in a later title is fairly common in Nintendo. Ryo Nagamatsu did it for Moo Moo Meadows, and sort of did it for the credits music, which he ended with a callback to the credits music of Mario Kart Wii. Asuka Ohta (Hayazaki) revisited her Grumble Volcano composition from Mario Kart Wii to arrange it for Mario Kart 8. Satomi Terui did it for DK Jungle from Mario Kart 7 to Mario Kart 8, though I'll admit that almost no re-arranging was done. Probably just a remastering.

Kenta Nagata returned to arrange Baby Park after Shinobu Tanaka had previously returned in Mario Kart DS to arrange the same piece that either she or Nagata (or both) had written. Kenta Nagata also revisited his Toad's Turnpike composition from Mario Kart 64 in Neo Bowser City for Mario Kart 7, and revisited that theme again in Mario Kart 8. Also in Mario Kart DS, Kenta Nagata revisited the following compositions of his from Mario Kart 64: Moo Moo Farm, Frappe Snowland, Choco Mountain, and Banshee Boardwalk. From Double Dash, the returning tracks in Mario Kart DS may or may not have been originally composed by him, too.

In conclusion, there's precidence, and it's not a stretch to conclude that in addition to being the original composer of the theme from Wii Sports Resort, Ryo Nagamatsu also arranged the theme for Wuhu Town in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe.
