Wii-kend Music #80: "Opening" (Super Smash Bros. Melee: Smashing... Live!)

This is "Wii-kend Music" in HD, where I'll be sending some sweet tunes to you, the viewer, for Wii-kend listening. I've been meaning to do this one for some time now. I figured I might as well make each ten Wii-kend Music's a special one, starting with #70 and now this. This is the classic Super Smash Bros. Melee opening video timed (not perfectly) with an orchestrated version of the opening theme. It's SO AWESOME!

Personally my favorite part of the video is Link's. Even though I'm not a Zelda fan, I love how it scrolls through the Zelda history behind him and then Link, Zelda and Ganon throw their hands up, each glowing with a different piece of the Triforce. Musically, the best part is definitely with Zelda/Shiek.

I would like to know, what are the six symbols on the top/bottom of the screen during Link's scene?

This theme makes me want to kick some Nintendo character butt XD I love this game

@PlayingWithMahWii the bottom and the top symbols are the same they stand for the 3 temples

This game is right up there as one of the best gc games along with metroid prime 1 and 2

@PlayingWithMahWii This is just a guess, but I think the 6 symbols on Link's scene are actually based on the 6 sages of time (Ocarina of Time). I've read the manga and the 6 sages are of time, forest, fire, shadow, water, and spirit. So that might be the answer.

My favorite Gamecube game.

@PlayingWithMahWii After completing each temple, you receive the power of that specific temple's element. Like the water temple, for example: once you beat it, you get the power of the water sage.

@PlayingWithMahWii I'm pretty sure that those symbols represent "temples" or "dungeons" seen and traversed in Ocarina of Time, the n64 Legend of Zelda game.

melee opening is better then brawl opening

Right at the end I found myself yelling in my head: SUPER SMASH BROTHERS...MELEE!!! XD I do like this a lot though, goosebumps at 1:11. :)

@PlayingWithMahWii the six symbols on the bottom and top are the six temples in ocarina of time its a great game my favorite in the zelda games.
