Attachment There is an unused music track in the game of the Noki Bay theme, as if you were riding Yoshi, even though Yoshi is not in Noki Bay. Many have speculated this is because Yoshi was going to be in the level, but was removed.

Hideo Kojima decided to have Harry Gregson-Williams compose most of the game's soundtrack after Kojima and sound director Kazuki Muraoka watched "The Replacement Killers" in a cinema, and enjoyed the music that Williams composed for the film. They had planned to watch "Saving Private Ryan", but the line for the movie was very long.

Gregson-Williams was given limited descriptions of the music he had to compose, such as "heroic" or "stealthy" as Kojima wanted the music to be pure Gregson-Williams. Gregson-Williams was told that the limited instructions he got was due to language barriers.

Iggy Koopa is the only koopa without a hotel. However, looking through the game's data reveals each hotel has an internal music, graphics and enemy data file labeled from L1 to L8. L6 is missing in its entirety, and the game jumps from Ludwig's to Wendy's hotel (L5 to L7).

You can extract sound and cutscene data from L6, but the hotel is left entirely blank. This points toward Iggy being planned to have a hotel of his own, opposed to only appearing in Bowser's hotel.

On the song "Wanted: Dead or Alive," If you do well enough to have the audience sing along with your band, they will mess up during the chorus by singing an extra "wanted," even though that happens only once in the song. This derives from how fans of Bon Jovi would do the same thing at Bon Jovi concerts.

Fans believe a number of areas in the game include music that sounds similar to music in Mother 3, such as Pokemon's "N's Farewell" and Mother 3's "Love Theme," and Pokemon's "Surf Theme" sounding like Mother 3's "The Green Train's Fun Too!"

None of the songs in the game are confirmed to be inspired by the Mother series.

Hidden in the files are two tracks named batman_song.ogg and song_driving.ogg. When played in a media player, they are actually songs from the anime Cowboy Bebop, being "Spy" and "Rush" respectively. According to the game composer, Jake Kaufman, these were place-holder tracks.

Shogo Sakai was the only person in charge of all the music in Mother 3, which count up to being 250 songs. Itoi realized even before he started development that he couldn't just request an outside musician and wanted someone who would have a lot of time to work on the project.
