Am I the only one who thinks everybody's been playing the intro to Koji Kondo's "Dark World" theme from The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past inaccurately? This has driven me mad for some time so I've put together a comparison video.

So far, I know Four Swords Adventures replicates the "Dark World" intro accurately. It's not that the notes are wrong in the others, but ever since the 1993 Zelda Sound & Drama CD arrangement, the "marching" aspect of the intro of "Dark World" has been different from its original SNES form.

I was shown another example that gets it right, Kirby's Dream Band's cover: https://youtu.be/mjrBYmkfLAU
