Title: Krusty's Super Funhouse SNES (different versions?) Post by: supernorst on November 01, 2014, 02:13:17 AM Over the last few years, I have been trying to obtain and replay some of my old games I had when I was a kid. One of these is Krusty's Super Funhouse on the SNES. Upon playing through the game I noticed that the music in the version I have now is significantly different than what I remember. So I did some research and found there are alternate tracks to many of the areas in the game. However, I have not found anywhere on the internet any info or proof that there are 2 different versions of the game, nor can I find any kind of music select option or code to change music.
Take a listen to stage 2 of the game. Current version I own. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vPM_QWz5R34 Here's the alternate version of the stage, one I owned as a kid. I prefer this tune. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KQe_HrXGYhI Anyone have any insight on why they might have composed 2 different soundtracks for this game? Not much came up on this game when I did a search. Title: Re: Krusty's Super Funhouse SNES (different versions?)

Version 1.1 featured completely different music tracks for the second and fourth worlds. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Krusty's_Fun_House Theoretically, the v1.1 cartridge would either have a "-1" Part # or would be stamped with an A on the back of the cartridge: [img width=700 height=525]http://i.ebayimg.com/00/s/MTIwMFgxNjAw/z/9rQAAOxyJX1TBkwu/$_57.JPG[/img] EDIT: FOUND ONE!

The composer for Krusty's Fun House was David Whittaker, who left for Electronic Arts shortly after the game was released. It's possible that a previous agreement fell through and they had to replace the music for those stages, or some other arrangement... Unfortunately, you likely wouldn't know unless you asked the guy himself. Title: Re: Krusty's Super Funhouse SNES (different versions?)
