It's grown increasingly annoying as it's become increasingly prominent. It's not like removing them would be a cure all, though - for a series that features some of the best game music of all time, the NSMB themes just don't measure up. 4 games deep and not much has really changed, save for more Wahs. Makes them an easy target for frustration at that point.

Sick and tired of the highly annoying cavalcade of cack that is the Wah Wah theme that runs through Mario games these days. I find it off putting in the extreme.

Dont like it, but i'm not a big fan of the level design in the "New" Mario games so i've never played enough for it to really get on my nerves.

And I havent even listened to the latest bombcast before i'm accused of being one of Gerstman's disciples.

I think the main reason people are getting irritated at it now as apose to before is because 2 "New" games have come out in less than a year. I will say that I love the Galaxy soundtrack, but I dont think it would go well with a sidescroller. Maby a faster theme? Similiar to Smash Bros. music?

It stinks, please stop this Nintendo!
