Tesla Coils “Sing” Your Favorite Video Game Themes

By Stacy in Gadgets, Hacks & Mods, Music, Video Clips on Jan 5, 2009 at 9:57 pm

This post started when I saw The 40 Greatest Uses of the Mario Brothers theme article at Rock the List. I figured I’d play one of the videos and link you guys to the rest. But when I searched for the original Tesla Coil video to share, all of these other video game themes appeared. Who knew?!

Here’s the theme that started it all – Mario:

And here we have Tetris, of course.

Zelda:

Amazing. I still recommend you check out the 40 Greatest Uses of the Mario Theme, though. It’s got everything from the banjo, which I think sounds pretty good, to a dude with a remote control car that drives by a line of glass bottles and hits them to make the appropriate noise for each note.

    Why is it that despite all the cash spent on Wii titles, Nintendo games no longer have awesome, memorable soundtracks like the NES games of 20 years ago?
