FF3 "Requiem" - Sound Comparison & Remix: NES / Nintendo DS / Pixel Remaster

This video compares the "Requiem" theme from Final Fantasy III, a game over and event track, across three versions: the original NES version, the Nintendo DS remake, and the Pixel Remaster. As usual, I’ve also created a remix using these three sound sources.

About the 3D Remake:
The "3D Remake" versions (on PSP, Steam, mobile, etc.) are based on the Nintendo DS version and use the same arrangement for the BGM. Therefore, they are omitted from this comparison.

About "Sound Comparison & Remix" Series:
This series focuses on comparing a single game track across multiple platforms—specifically, ports or remakes of the same game title. I then create a remix (mashup) using these sources to explore their differences and bring out new sounds.
Please note that I intentionally limit the scope to the same game title, as including multiple games would make comparisons too broad and weaken the quality of the remix.
