I'm assuming these are all supposed to be composer credits, and Hajime Wakai is only credited because he's the original composer of those tunes.
I can confirm the CD text credits are identical in the US release.

As I play the game, I'm growing more positive about the music. I'm pleased that virtually all "indoor" areas have music. But the music is far too sparse out on the field for my taste. I also don't agree with the focus on the piano.

Yeah, I ended up mostly liking the music by the time I was finished with the game (aside from the lack of memorable field themes). The battle themes are very different for the series but they work. And as a pianist, I love the focus on that instrument.

I really need a full release of BotW OST pronto. The Divine Beast Vah Ruta battle theme is epic, the one for Naboris is pretty good too.

I like the various overworld music in its own right but I honestly wouldn't miss it if I could turn it off in its entirety, and just enjoy the ambient sounds. It is a bit something of nothing. I wouldn't have wanted orchestral bombast either though, and I am glad that this game breaks many Zelda conventions and stereotypes.

The more that I look at this compilation, the more baffled I am. They didn't include any of the Divine Beast battle themes, Champion themes, or the dungeon boss battle themes but they included the Talus and Hinox battle themes? Absolutely awful selection of tunes overall with half the CD being slowed down versions of the town themes at night.

Yeah, I would have left out the town night themes and put in the dungeon themes, honestly. Most of those were pretty good.

Alas, we once again must rely on Nintendo's fanbase to service us a full OST. I don't know if this has been accomplished yet but I am sure it is not far away.

A game rip exists since the game is out, it's also on youtube.

I saw on the Champion's Ballad DLC that there's a new composer credited.

I've been unable to locate "HAC-AAAAA-USA" or any similar catalog numbers anywhere on my copy. Instead, I see a "105233A" on the back of the digipak next to the copyright string, which is similar to catalog numbers used for Super Mario Galaxy and the US printing of Super Smash Bros. Wii U/3DS.

Does anyone know where the current catalog number came from?

HAC-AAAAA-USA is the product ID of Breath of the Wild itself (or, more specifically, its US release). Since this CD came packaged with the game in the Special and Master Editions, I guess this is where it comes from.
