When a movie studio stole Nintendo music

Ойындар

Nintendo's music for Ocarina of Time was STOLEN, and used in a Shrek game without permission in the early 2000s. In today's video, I'll explain how this plagiarism was spotted, we'll compare the COPIED Zelda music to the Shrek soundtrack, and more!

    HELLO! Sorry it's been so long since the last video! I've been going through a lot of hectic things in my personal life over the last few months, and while things are still busy I've finally been getting my act together when it comes to this KZread channel, so I really appreciate that you've been so patient!! Today's video will be the first of many coming over the next few months - no long disappearances from the internet any time soon :) Love y'all :)

    @@amesstarline5482 I think you mean Windy Valley (Sonic Adventure), not Windy Hill (Sonic Lost World). But one of the three pieces of music used in Windy Valley is legit just a remix of Green Grove from the Genesis version of Sonic 3D Blast, and that got used in the Olympics games. Funnily enough, one of Windy Valley's other themes seems to be partially based on the music from The Doomday Zone from Sonic 3 & Knuckles (not outright reused, just inspiration). And there's a bunch of reuse of music in Sonic games besides the Green Grove/Windy Valley thing - the most blatant example is Sonic Pocket Adventure, which uses nothing but recycled music.

    I figure, a factor why the companies believed they could get away with it, is that a lot ot the Zelda music, in particular in Ocarina of time was created using Zero-G sample CDs (a fact you covered on this channel as well), and it was in many instances, that the companies didn't have the rights to those CDs in the first place, which is a fact that may come out during court and make things awkward. It would become potentially a whole "I only stole from you what you stole first" scenario. While you could buy those CDs freely, it was actually specifically stated that purchasing the CD did not include a commercial license. I can't say for sure whether Nintendo actually procured the neccessary rights but let's just say copyright back then wasn't what it is now... Even then: For some samples Zero-G didn't even own the copyright in the first place :D

    Fun fact: In a turn of events, there was actually an instance where V-Smile music was used in a Wii game! In 2009, a game adaptation of the Thomas and Friends movie, "Hero of the Rails" was released in Europe only. And all of the music in the game are recompositions of Thomas's own V-Smile game! There are even a few tracks from the V-Smile game that were never used and are leftover in the game's assets. As for the game itself, it's pretty underwhelming; it's a minigame collection pieced together with FMVs from the movie. And seeing how the target audience is very young kids, the minigames are very short and simple. I guess for what it is, it isn't too terrible, but I honestly think it was a missed opportunity. I think it would have been a lot more interesting if the game was more similar to a train simulator, where you control Thomas and other characters of the show throughout an open world Sodor (with different branch lines and sights) and play a story that is a copy of the movie. The game would have been designed so that both kid and adult fans of the show alike can enjoy the game. Kids would have gone crazy because they get to play as Thomas. Adults would in turn enjoyed the game's open world and it's faithfulness to Sodor. Oh well. Maybe -Outright Games- someone that gets the license to Thomas can make that type of game.

    I live in Hong Kong and there was a Chinese TV show on TV here that ran for about 6 months. The show flat out used the music that plays inside the pirate's ship from Legend of Zelda Wind Waker. It wasn't an arrangement or a remix. It was a 1 to 1 rip of the Gamecube file. Thing is it wasn't a single use affair. It was played in sections when the characters were just sitting around talking casually, which was 2 or 3 times per one hour episode. It was absolutely shameless. I have also seen countless TV commercial selling products and flat out using the coin sound effect from Mario and the ring sound from Sonic.

    One thing that honestly it might have been is time crunch with placeholder files, I've seen people from that era (especially with these cheaper games) use MIDIs they have laying around or something as placeholders. So chances are they had put these in as placeholders (which would explain why lost woods sounds the way it does and why some songs lose some sounds due to the sound channel count) and forgot about it. That's just a theory however.

    Ocarina of Time extensively used samples from Zero-G Datafile CDs. Many games from that era did, possibly Marble Madness too.
