Line 102:
* Several times during ''[[Super Mario RPG]]'', a town is taken over by a Boss, and the music changes to indicate the trouble. When you face the boss, the fight is accompanied by a boss remix of the 'trouble' music.
** The battle against Smithy's first form is also a remix of the 'trouble' theme, albeit with all sorts of mechanical sounds added in, along with an [[Ominous Pipe Organ]].
* The [[Climax Boss]] fight against Cackletta in ''[[Mario and Luigi Superstar Saga|Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]'' is accompanied by a boss remix of her theme mixed with the "panic" theme.
* In ''[[Mario and Luigi Bowsers Inside Story|Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story]]'', [[Attack of the 50 -Foot Whatever|Giant Bowser Battles]] are accompanied by a boss remix of Bowser's theme.
* The last battle in ''[[The World Ends With You]]'' uses a remix of the game's main theme, "Twister", that is unique to that fight - unlike all the other boss fights in the game, which use music from the game's regular selection.
** The English version of Someday plays only on the boss battle with Minamimoto; every other time you hear it it's the Japanese version...
Line 127:
* The final map theme {{spoiler|for both the normal and demon path}} for ''[[Soul Nomad and The World Eaters]]'' is a faster version of the title music with [[Ominous Latin Chanting]]. Feinne's theme is also a variant of the title theme.
* ''[[Super Paper Mario]]'' uses remixes the theme for Merlee's Mansion for your fight with Mimi, Count Bleck's [[Leitmotif]] for your final battle with him, and the themes of {{spoiler|Dimentio, the Chaos Heart and Mr. L}} for {{spoiler|the [[Final Boss]], Super Dimentio}}.
* The final boss theme in ''[[PaladinsPaladin's Quest]]'' (aka Lennus 1) has a remixed version of the main villain's theme along with the game's main battle theme.
* The boss battle theme of ''[[Mega Man Battle Network]] 5'' is a remix of the normal random encounter theme.
** The final boss themes of most games in that series are remixes of the normal boss theme.
Line 143:
* ''[[Golden Sun]]'': In the first game, the final battle with Saturos and Menardi is accompanied by a remix of their theme. The same goes for the second game, where Agatio and Karst's theme becomes their battle music.
* ''[[MARDEK]]'': While [[Giant Space Flea From Nowhere|regular bosses]] use the standard piano boss battle theme, major antagonists have specific Boss battle themes when fighting them; fighting Muriance the bandit chief changes his main theme into Muriance Battle, the World's Saviours get their theme changed into Saviours Battle, etc. Seems to be a favorite tactic of Pseudolonewolf to reuse certain things from each song...which makes it epic.
* Both the "Theme of Chaos" and "Theme of Law" from ''[[Shin Megami Tensei: Strange Journey]]'' are given bombastic remix treatments for the endgame battles with {{spoiler|Soil/Awakened Jimenez and Pillar/Judge Zelenin, respectively}}.
* ''[[Final Fantasy I]]'' only had the one battle theme which was used from your first fight with imps all the way to the [[Big Bad]]. However, for the [[Updated Rerelease]] of the game on both the Game Boy Advance and the PlayStation, boss fights had a rearranged version of the basic battle theme (which was already remixed from the 8-bit original).
* ''[[Final Fantasy II]]'' uses remixes of the Castle Pandaemonium theme for both its normal battle theme and its boss battle theme.
* The Mysterious Girl's battle theme in ''[[Final Fantasy IV: theThe After Years]]'' is an intense remix of her [[Leitmotif]].
* In ''[[Final Fantasy V]]'', Exdeath's battle theme (before he goes [[One-Winged Angel]]) is a remix of his character theme.
* Dancing Mad from ''[[Final Fantasy VI]]''. All sorts of recurrent themes and motifs from other songs along the game get thrown into it, most prominently "Omen", "Catastrophe", as well as Kefka's [[Leitmotif]] and "Fight to the Death" (the music used for the fights against Ultima Weapon and the Warring Triad.)
