Random question, but something I'm rather curious about...

[Erkz]

So here's the story.

I was hanging around the MBAA OST topic, and lo and behold, I got the chance to hear Nightmare Teller and geeked out over it.

Sometime later, while I was watching a random video uploaded by a friend of mine, a funny looking thumbnail caught my eye, which lead me to this video upon clicking it.

Now, while I already know that the latter is a doujin parody game, I'd like to know, assuming Nightmare Teller was made especially for MBAA and wasn't in any other MB game before it, how this game was able to contain a parody/remix of it some two or more years before AA was released.

Or, failing that, I'd like to know what song Nightmare Teller and that other song are remixes of.

Your help is greatly appreciated, as this has been gnawing at my mind for the past week or two and I fear losing what's left my sanity soon.

They don't really sound all that similar to me, actually.

It might be a little hard to tell, honestly. Almost "Truth from Melty Blood" and "Melty Blood" hard. But the drumming on both in the beginning, and the distortion guitar in Nightmare Teller's background and ... midi guitar/flute thing in the beginning share more or less the same notes. Nightmare Teller's 1:24 to 1:47 seems to be a slower/more awesome version of the other vid's 0:21 to 0:31.

I dunno, I might just be retarded or something. Though if that was the case, I doubt it'd still be bugging me. Unless my brain's playing tricks on me.

Uh... I can see where you're coming from but the two have no relation other than 16th notes on the drum and minor note similarities.

[grandlordzero]

Agree, similarity between the two is fairly minuscule.

lold pretty hard at the video though.

Why are we playing Melty Blood when we could be playing that obviously superior game
