I was thinking of writing an article about some of the lost gems of old video game music, maybe even posting some archives...I was wondering if anyone here might want to throw their opinion in. For me Legacy of the Wizard and Final Fantasy Adventure are two killer soundtracks that don't get the credit they deserve...any one else?

Ever hear the intro to the D&D game for gameboy?
And I know its not really Nintendo but I loved sonic 3d blasts music and Eternal Champions sound track. I'm sure there's more I'm forgetting...

Playboy Man-Baby

The Game Boy version of Tetris Attack. Phenomenal music. Also, Wario Land 3.

I think Journy to Silius never gets the attention it deserves...at least anywhere I read..

I'll bet most of you haven't heard of Mr. Gimmick.

probably the most advanced soundtrack ever made for the NES.  Crazy Japan only Sunsoft game that came out super late in the NES dev cycle.

The soundtrack to Rhino Rumble for the Gameboy by Jeroen Tel. There aren't even any good youtube videos on it. just of the title music and first level.

I have and I love it. It's insanely difficult, but it's DEFINITELY a top 3.

+1 Gimmick!

Also - everybody knows the various Street Fighter themes but it seems most people are familiar with the clunky SNES arrangements as opposed to the far superior GB ones:

(couldn't even find a good video to demonstrate my point!)

This theme is a masterpiece. And nobody knows why, me neither. I just love it.

PS: If you slow down it to 50% it will become a little more understandable.

I wasn't going to mention Gimmick!, (it's weird to me that people call it Mr. Gimmick, because it was only released with Mr. in the name in like one Scandanavian country, or something), because it's reached the status of being like, the best kept secret that everyone talks about, and sometimes people listen.

Anyway, I see your Gimmick! and raise you Trip World(from my rom blog)

Also, no one's mentioned Silver Surfer? . Probably same category as Gimmick! I guess.
