Arrangements

Super Mario series

Super Mario Sunshine

In Super Mario Sunshine, the themes from Ricco Harbor, Gelato Beach, Bianco Hills, the episode select screen, and the staff credits are all arrangements of Delfino Plaza's melody. "Ricco Harbor" is in the key of C-major and is arranged in a ska style, with prominent saxophone and electric guitar instrumentation. "Bianco Hills" is also in the key of C major and is arranged in the style of European folk music, with prominent use of clarinet, flute, and oboe, accompanied by tambourine, castanets, and harp. "Gelato Beach" is once again in the key of C-major and is arranged in the style of Trinidadian calypso, with prominent saxophone and steel drum instrumentation. "Select Scenerio" only consists of a few music box-like notes from the main motif of "Delfino Plaza". The "Staff Credits" theme is an upbeat Latin arrangement of "Isle Delfino" featuring sports whistles and a roaring crowd in the background, likely referencing soccer games, a very popular sport in Latin America.

"Ricco Harbor" returns as a playable track in Super Smash Bros. Brawl and Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, where it can be played on the Delfino Plaza stage, and in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, where it can be played on any Super Smash Bros.- and Super Mario-series stage.
