A collection of my favorite videogame music. Note that most of them are from games I played so I might miss some great ones from games I never played.
NES
Shatterhand (1991)
Area G (Missile Command)
Iku Mizutani & Kouichi Yamanishi
2020 and Still Jamming to this tune, TILL THIS DAY!
Natsume did some great stuff on the NES, including this beast song, but I wish they did a bit better with stories. If memory serves, this story, as shown in the game, is that you punch this one dude at the beginning. Okay. Fight! lol Still better than Super Mario Bros. and stuff, I guess.
Love the boxart!
I first heard this song through an OCR remix.
totally did a remix of this: https://soundcloud.com/squaretherapy/shatterhand-area-g-squaremix
Acapella version: Doot dududu doo doot dududu dooooooot doo doot.
sucks
Sucks what?
This was probably the best game I played on the NES. This game was ahead of its time on all aspects.
Why can´t I hear such great music in video games nowadays ? I miss the 90´s :(
Sweet tune
I've never heard of this game I will most definitely be getting it and playing through it this week. This track is an amazing example of some of the best music that was out there on the NES.
I love in Shatterhand that you can block bullets by punching them. How's manly is that!!!
Moonkiller69 it's just not manly, but it is truly badass
I heard of this through some obscure book claiming to be an official Nintendo cheat guide. Had SNES, NES, and Game Boy games with mini strategy guides to each of the games(helped me get through Battletoads as a kid). Had a bunch of animals surfing on ice on the cover. Not sure if anyone's ever seen it or not, I'm pretty sure it was home made and distributed, but can't be certain since I found it at a garage sale.
;p
Your second piece of this great game. <3 Have the original game, still as awesome as ever.
The cover art (like many NES games) doesn't do this game justice.
This game and its music are just total awesomeness.
Oh, yes! Shatterhand was an AMAZING game for the NES. So completely underrated. I play it all the time!
And this is an addicting track.
Never heard of the game before, but I've heard of Jaleco who made it. (Was a huge Bases Loaded fan as a child)
Matt 6418 actually, the real developers were Natsume and Angel who made the original version which was based on the Tokusatsu show, Tokyuu Shirei Solbrain
oh god. g
Agreed. What a fly guy.
I could play this at a party for sure.
Great song!
Awesome and underrated action-platformer for the NES, with the kind of great 8-bit soundtrack you expect. I'm jealous though, I wish I had those yellow sunglasses.
