For project 2, I'd like to focus on playing on memory. As a child, it was difficult to find an activity that I enjoyed enough to devote my time to. I used to try to read a book once a day, and I continued this routine every day after school until I was introduced to consoles. Though it may have been a change of pace, I truly enjoyed spending my evenings playing SNES classic games and it is something that I hold dear to this day. Gaming has changed drastically over the years. From the introduction of the Magnavox Odyssey in 1972 to the development of virtual reality today, gaming has changed for the better and continues to develop as time progresses.
For my project, I'd like to focus on the sounds of the Super Nintendo Entertainment System released in 1991. Though I do not have the original console itself, I do have the SNES Classic Edition released late 2017. This SNES console includes over 30 classic SNES Games that were part of my upbringing which I admire to this day. For this piece, I'd like to combine sounds from the games on the SNES to allow the audience to feel nostalgia over not only my childhood, but the childhood they might have had as well if they have experienced this in their upbringings as well. Thus far, I plan on including sounds of Pacman, Metroid, Castlevania II, Kirby's Adventure, The Legend of Zelda, Super Mario Brothers Street Fighter, Donkey Kong Country, Final Fantasy II, Starfox, and Earthbound. The sounds I hope to capture will likely be recognizable by the audience if they have encountered any of the listed classes SNES games.
