Separate pages for NH invalid songs

I am proposing independent pages are also created for the invalid songs in New Horizons. Here is why:

  • These are actual songs in the game's code. They are included in the game's internal list of songs, and have unobtainable items with parameters for music items. The item names, regardless of language, are "はずれ01", "はずれ02", and "はずれ03" respectively. Each K.K. song also has an internal name, used both for the audio file and as an item parameter. (e.g. "K.K. Chorale"'s internal name is "Sanbika".) For these songs, they are simply "Hazure01", "Hazure02", and "Hazure03"— pretty straightforward.
  • This wiki had pages for "Animal City", "Drivin", and "Farewell" long before New Horizons; the only difference was the names for these songs were (roughly) known because they were included in the game files instead of being given placeholder names. I say roughly because they were the Japanese names, so the latter two pages used to be called "Drive" and "Goodbye". Thankfully the official English names ended up being pretty similar, or the same in the first case.
  • As a note, these songs also have numbers, once again both in the audio files and item parameters. Oddly, unlike past games where invalid songs were given the next three numbers, they are #901, #902, and #903. I suspect in the next game they will actually be #96, #97, and #98.

So, I think these songs merit their own pages titled "Hazure01", "Hazure02" and "Hazure03" (italicized because these are transliterations of the actual item names), as currently these are the official names. Whenever the next game comes out and these are given actual names and numbers, we can change them. Chubby Bub (talk) 21:28, May 24, 2021 (EDT)
