We've all listened to a good deal of nintendo's musical composition, but have we heard them all. Yeah, most likely...
You see, in certain Ninteno produced games, there is a hidden little snippet of music that is very difficult to find. It is called "Totaka's song."
It's called this because of all these select games, the music producer is a guy named Kazumi Totaka.
Finding these songs are almost the same within each game. Usually one must be at a certain screen and wait for certain amount of time at that screen, then boom, you here that little jingle. Like in the "Game Over" screen in Mario Land 2
The is as old as I am one could say, dating back to 1990 in the game X. It is found when the screen show a scientist making a weird face. and waiting awhile.
It's latest appearance was in Animal Crossing: City Folk where it is whistled by Kapp'n when he is looking away from the mirror and waiting a bit, as well as a song played by KK Slider by requesting KK Song from him.
I put them in spoiler tags so as to let those who wish to find it themselves to do so.
Fun Fact: Totaka shares a birthday with our very own Tyler.
Have you heard of his song, or better yet found it?
To be honest, I find the song sorta creepy. |

Oh yeah, I heard about this. Pretty interesting. Never knew there was a new part in AC:CF though. |

Yeah, it's kinda scary, but I think it's a really cool easter egg.
It's in Luigi's Mansion too, on the screen that shows the controls, right before your training.
Supposedly he's composed for a few games that the song hasn't been found in yet....so the search continues... |

It goes something like this:
Doot, dududoot, dudoot, deet, doot, deet, deet, doot, dededeet, dudoot, doot, deet, doot.
I know, it's not helpful, but If you say the words, it almost sounds like it. XD |

There are three games I know of that Totaka worked on, but lack his song, or the song hasn't been located yet. They are Waverace 64, Wario Land on the Virtual Boy, and Wii Sports. |

Don't see how you guys find it creepy. It sounds slightly cynical halfway through, but not creepy in the least. |

It's creepy when you're thinking "...What the hell is this weird music? This isn't from [game name]." Sort of. Though I don't really find that song creepy, I think it's a nice bit of music that I sometimes find myself humming. |
