- Don't post comments that say "globin". They're not funny; they're dumb and annoying.
- Do NOT comment on the pictures. They are not the focus of the video. They're only there to give you a visual to go with the music. If' you must comment, do so on the music only.
- I couldn't care less whether or not you think the pictures "are not 8-bit". The fact is, I made them with an 8-bit graphical style in mind. Therefore, they're 8-bit. End of story. I do NOT want to hear any more on this subject.
- Don't give me any requests. Either get someone else to take them, or try learning how to use FamiTracker and do your own requests yourself.
Anyone who posts a comment pertaining to any of the above will be blocked and their comment(s) will be deleted. No exceptions.

I decided to remix the Boss Battle theme from the third Mario & Luigi RPG in NES style, since it's so catchy. Now, I know I said that using the same instrument on both channels can make a song sound flat and 1-dimensional, but there are a few exceptions where it actually works to a reasonably good effect, and this, in my opinion, is one of those exceptions.
I made two NES mock-up screenshots for this video. The first one was made when I couldn't find any screenshots taken straight from the ROM via an emulator (I myself have that ROM, but my emulator crashes when the game enters a battle), so I had to borrow graphics from Super Mario Bros. and Super Mario World. Cheap, I know, but it works somewhat. At least I managed to find an actual Bowser sprite from the game, and I give thanks to Super Mario Wiki for having that sprite in their image gallery.
As for the second mock-up, I actually could find a directly-ripped ROM screenshot, in PNG format (Again, thanks to Super Mario Wiki), but the background has literally hundreds of individual colours, so when it came down to reducing them, the end result looks like something out of a pirate ROM. I'm still glad I made it, though.
Cool might use this in my game!

@101habitat Yes it is, it's a remixed version of the boss battle music. Listen to it more closely.
