Question of the Day, August 7, 2010



Super Claudio Brothers is a musical that explores what it's like to be a character in Mario. What other classic videogame should be made into a musical? What would be the titles of some of the songs?

Gotta be Space invaders and it has to be an Opera. So we would have the first real 'Space Opera'!

Dig Dug

DIG DUG!

I hate musicals, so please, none!

 

[Mr. Grey]

Frogger.

I honestly think it would be something amusing.

Castlevania! Ever since REPO: The Genetic Opera I've had an itch for a great gothic musical. Sadly I can't find Nosferatu and I can only listen to Jekyll and Hyde so many times before that one gets old...

Other, Legend of Zelda.

Edit: Featuring such songs as "I'm lost in the woods" and "Oh look, another secret passage"

damn, i thought the question of the day was which color jelly bean to eat next??? ah well. contra the musical has a good ring to it. imagine taking it to the enemy with a rousing musical number

I can't believe this wasn't an option: Katamari Damacy.

A-NANANANANANANANA KATAMARI DAMACY!!

 

[Cherry Cola]

Megaman of course!

We already have some nifty songs.

 

[Kapol]

Sonic the hedgehog! They've already ruined my childhood by ruining the game series and making a horrible TV show, so why not go all the way?

 

[Shock and Awe]

Chrono Trigger ;D

If anyone considers themselves a true Megaman fan, they should check out The Protomen, a musical that infuses some 1984 into Megaman. It is fantastic and even people against musicals should check it out. There are 2 acts to it, although Act II is actually a prequel to the first. But just phenomenal music.

 

[Hiphophippo]

Going to have to go with Contra, for the lulz.

 

[DaxStrife]

Space Invaders; the way the enemies get arranged at the top of the screen in a large group makes me think "gospel choir."

 

[ultimateownage]

Donkey Kong obviously. Just imagine Donkey Kong singing about how he kidnapped Pauline to spite Jump Man.

 

[Harley Q]

The Legend of Zelda!

 

[Antitonic]

Donkey Kong. Considering how they're already making a Mario musical, it's a natural link.
