Not Wii Orchestra. But close.No folks, we're not talking about Wii Orchestra. Krakken from the Games are Fun website managed to grab most of the menu music from the Wii channels.

For fans of the different Wii Channels, his work also gives you the chance to take them with you wherever you go! Krakken also put them up for download on the GAF website, so if you like the new Wii music, this is the best chance for you to slap them onto a CD or music player for your own personal use.

Krakken notes that the music from the channels aren't short, looping tunes but are actually full-fledged pieces of music. He's thinking this might be some nice sort of Kazumi Totaka-styled piece of obscure knowedge, but the fact that Nintendo bothered to put in actual tunes on Wii Channels is definitely a nice touch.

We all went ga-ga when we have learned about the music hidden in various Nintendo games for more than ten years now. To all who missed it, we are talking about the work of sound designer Kazumi Totaka. Apparently, Totaka has left his mark on every game that he has worked on by inserting a melody.

It has been settled that these aren't useful features but that do not make them any less amazing. Imagine, games older that you are containing this hidden melody. It is actually quite creepy, when you really think about it. But we are sure that is not the intention here. We feel like Totaka has left various "bread crumbs" and we are eager to find where those leads.

Anyway, here are the last two installment of the Totaka songs video. Also, video author PhilBond pointed out that Totaka's name is actually in the Wii Sports manual credits. So let's see who finds the melody first. Game on! You could check out the other video after the jump!
