The Legend of Zelda (video game)/Trivia


 * What Might Have Been: The game's theme music is one of the most iconic in video game history, and most fans would consider it a blasphemy to even suggest that there might have been a different piece of music for it. However, that was almost the case. Originally, the developers planned to use French composer Maurice Ravel's work Boléro as the score, but discovered at nearly the last minute that this piece was still under copyright at the time. They had to make an emergency commission to composer Koji Kondo, who claims he pulled an all-nighter working on the rush job which he completed in only a day, and a legend of video game music was the result.
