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.
Gameboy Advance
The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap
Temple of Droplets
I think The Minish Cap is very underrated.
When you get the boss key so fast you know you are in for a hard level
Idk why but I think gba music is the best videogame music overall. Maybe its just nostalgia but I think it sounds the most pleasing and ages well.
I love the bells.
Every Zelda has to have a Water temple and this one is the Minish Cap's one
Minish Cap is straight up my favorite Zelda game, and this song brings me fond memories... Even if I was stuck on this Temple for a while. XD
I bought a gameboy advance just for this game xd
An ice level than doesn't suck? Brilliant!
Only with this doing do I hear the gba compressed soundbit of Link's attack sound from OoT. I never hear it in my head with other minish cap songs.
0:11 bubble guppyyyy! bubble guppy powerrrr (powerrrrrr)
XD I heard that
ikr
NOOOOO
I love the chimes in this song reminds me alot of those anime style games on the ds.
Reminds me of a Breath of Fire 3 theme.
Nidav3 Thought it was just me. Interesting since Capcom also worked on this installment.
Love this song, definitely goes well with the *COLD* Cave theme of the dungeon . (Oh wow, I didn't know you could do bold letters by using *)
this songs pretty wack. this list as a whole is quite weak.
You just can't beat GameBoy! "Now you're playing with portable power!"
I loved the theme for this temple! This and Cloud Tops along with the Sanctuary themes are my favorites from the game. Instant nostalgia listening to this :D
I absolutely despise this temple, but it had the best theme in the whole game, it's majestic, epic, wintry and foreboding
this temple was horrible,just like every water/ice dungeon in zelda games,but the music....gah,one of the best of the whole Zelda Series. The boss however was just pure fun!
@Teamflare Grunt agreed, my opinions exactly of this dungeon. Frustrating and long, but the boss was awesome
@Teamflare Grunt I honestly take it back, I just replayed through this temple today after not playing the game for 3 years and it was pretty easy compared to the first and second times I did it. Idk I guess I get better when I get older. I actually found it FUN.
I think it's like that indeed,much harder when you're a kid. Just like the Ice Path in Pokémon Crystal.
@Teamflare Grunt yea, I first played this game when it came out and I was around 14. I played this one before wind waker, twilight princess and skyward sword (well obviously before TP and SS cause they weren't out yet). But after playing those three and coming back to this one 10 years later, I must say this one is quite a bit easier than those 3.
All three of you mentioned Final Fantasy. xD LOL
...Ahhhhhhhh. This song. Right in the feels. So many memories of this dungeon. My favorite legend of zelda game, period. Some of my favorite zelda music, and let not even get into Cloud tops.
minish cap had some of the best music of any legend of zelda game. love it :D
+Urist McTubedwarf And it is not Koji Kondo (although that is probably obvious).
Of course it had some of the best, that's a cop out answer. Any Zelda game has 'some' of the best music. Is it the best? That's more important
They were only saying that they like the music, isn't that comment a bit snide?
@Shanty Boonstabo Like a true millennial, you assume the negative over the objective. Feelings over logic. Emotions over thought
Not really I'm just saying that it was a simple comment that didn't really need deconstructing. You say objective but saying that any Zelda game has some of the best music is an opinion. And it's up to the op what was "more important" to say. Saying the comment had a snide tone to it isnt me assuming emotions over thought or whatever pseudo rational nonsense you said there.
@Shanty Boonstabo Refer to my previous comment
@Brian Scalabrine aka GOAT Whatever, no point in continuing this dead end conversation anyway.
I agree, though the best music would have to go to Majora's Mask for its sheer number of musical masterpieces.
@Matthew Langsdale That or Ocarina of Time.
@Shanty Boonstabo True, I just have more emotional attachment to MM though.
@Matthew Langsdale Yeah I get what you mean, both of those soundtracks are top tier, among my favourite soundtracks of all time.
I definitely agree
0:50 sounds like a dark version of that Spongebob walk cycle song.
Yeah it actually does!!
That Giant Octorock!
My first Zelda and my favourite song *_*
I need to replay this D:
That would kill you....guess we would need a Goron Tunic then.
What about for hot places?
Or just go sit in the fridge.
joostoboy yep
For the Wii U or Nintendo's next console they should make it for a Zelda game where if your in a cold place your room gets chilly or if your in a hot place your room gets hot like it would come through the console or something idk.
Thank God, I downloaded this game for my 3DS.
lucky ambassador.
Minish Cap has to be the game I want to play the most out of all the Zelda games.
I came because of Zeldathon Water
idk why but whenever i hear this song i think of final fantasy vii. does anyone else think the same thing?
I don't know why, when I listen to this. It remind me of final fantasy....but this is have to be my favorite Temple music
Sounds Like a CD soundtrack.
I miss this game..
Oh yeah, I can hear that too! Good ear.
The latest one felt fairly stale.
MAN!! YOU SHOULD DOWNLOAD A EMULATOR!!! this game is so great!! you dont know what you're missing!
this kinda reminds me of final fantasy vii for the ps. i can just see it
Like all good soundtracks from GBA games, they would be 100 times better without the GBA static :c
Anyone else think that this song has been inspired by one of the Oracle of Seasons dungeon ones? /watch?v=G7QP8uJ6LVI especially the part at 0:25 The songs just have similar beats and parts to them
Almost 8 years... time goes by so fast :\
It actually reminds me of FF7.
same.
This game is too underrated
fuckin awesome game
@WetpantsMcGee My first Zelda game was Phantom Hourglass, and I don't like OoT, but think that LA have all that I want in a Zelda game,
I actually enjoyed Minish Cap more than Phantom Hourglass and Spirit Tracks
@elago98 Didn't own a Game Boy when I was younger, sadly. Even now as I have Link's Awakening DX on my 3DS, I'm not all that impressed with it.
@WetpantsMcGee Link's Awakening: are you fucking kidding me?
Best LoZ on a portable I've played. Even better than the DS games.
@mega20968 ever play ocarina of time?
Zelda Minish Cap has an incredible soundtrack. Both the melodies and the way it sounds are great!
A very mysterious-sounding tune. I really like it. However the chromatic stuff gets annoying and makes it sound pink-pantherish.
It was a cold winter night when I was in this dungeon, and the cold from outside was penetrating into my room. So I really felt like I was in there while I was playing. =)
@jacksprat1990 it does yeah it sounds like the safe room music from the remake
@mega20968 Phantom Hourglass is even easier.
I just played this temple a few days ago on a hacked wii. It was connected to a sweet, huge sound system. This song sounded so epic.
For some reason, this song reminds me of Resident Evil.
INSTANT BONER DETECTED. Seriously! I'm SOOO pulling an all-nighter playing this game! :D Plus. I'm going to finish it in one go!
i didn't mean to dislike this i accidently clicked it when i went on your channel xD
Temple of Droplets is one of the best dungeons in any Zelda game ever. This song gives me chills everytime
@SupraDarky think that u can extend this? cus it was awesome
Very soothing, I love it.
Such a brilliant song.
Just got to this dungeon earlier today! Game is so awesome :D.
@thenameiskip Concurred good sir, concurred. It was the only hand held I have ever really played and payed attention to, because I don't think the hand helds can live up to the console versions(Obviously, but I mean like... They aren't very good) But this one... Changed my views on it. One of the first games when I got my DS, the very first one all those years ago, I still have this game to date, and I won't get rid of it, that's how good it is. I hope you get to enjoy it as much as I did! =D
One word, Nostalgia.
I got really creeped out when i saw that giant octorok thaat was asleep
I always get chills from this music...
@thenameiskip Please do. NOW!
one of my favorite songs in the entire Zelda franchise :)
i realized how spooky this sounded! shoot.
@ManfredMitchum Looks like your wish has been granted!
:)
@mega20968, Bustersword07 Give 'em both a shot on the Three Heart Challenge and they're a lot harder! Minish Cap especially.
@mega20968 lol, then you haven't played the Wind Waker :P
My friend's little brother lost my copy of this game forever ago... I needed ONE MORE PIECE OF HEART!
LydianLights emulators helped me out
@EatBoxSocks if you took all that time writing YOU HAVE NO LIFE
idw...but this song it appears on dino crisis O.o
Zelda is such a SOLID series.
this song really reminded me of a nightmare during christmas time :(
SANTUARY
Does this remind anyone else a little bit of Resident Evil 2?
Please Add minish woods and the minish village there, that music is something to sleep to.
Is this on a CD anywhere? I loved the music to this game. I want it on my ipod along with the rest of my zelda music collection.
in my opinion link looks manlier in minish cap than in ph or st Oo
agreed
Its almost a pity that the most extraordinary works for the GBA had to come out toward the end of its lifespan. Minish Cap, Mother 3 and so on. All sporting music that pushed the hardware's limits
for an GBA game the music and the whole game itself was awesome XD!
HOLy this is like my fav in the entire game!!! Great minds think alike. Just wondering where you got the mp3 of this song. thanks. :)
que recuerdos xD
Wai. XD
Lol, I'm glad it wasn't just that part. That's just too easy. There has to be a little challenge. :P
LOL I felt like that often in the Minish Cap =]
Lol, when I first played through this dungeon, I got the boss key, and I was just like, "Wtf? did I just skip like 80% of the temple?" lol But then I realized I still had a whole bunch of other crap to do, to get that lantern.
I loved this song, and this dungeon, but I hated everything I had to go through to get there!!!
I went through the game again, and the music for Mt. Crenel, the Cloud Tops, and Zelda's Lullaby stood out to me. I actually enjoyed it too, which is great. Replayability FTW
The Minish Cap remains my favorite Zelda game, and it has really great music.
Hey man I totally agree. Tarm Ruins is the most beautifull music ever in a Zelda game. I'm thinking of uploading it myself soon.
this is a good song and game, however I really think you should add the Tarm Ruins theme from Oracle of Seasons/Ages, SupraDarky.
Ya know, I wouldn't care if you put every track from a game into your list. But the way you do it by making game songs inconsistent is good_^)
Of course!
my favorite music from Minish Cap! this dungeon was great altogether
When I got this game, It felt like a bad ALttP copy... Until I got here, and it just moved into a category all of its own.
I've never played this one, sadly. I've never had the opportunity to. I hope to fix that one day.
I loved this game :D The forest music was so relaxing...
This is definately the best dungeon in the game. I remember being stuck here for hours, but the nice music kept me going.
Haha, I guess that's a good thing! :P
Well said!
I'm sure you could pass that dungeon, it's not too hard! :)
All of the VG music on your list are my favourites, too. It's creepy.
It definitely sets a nice atmosphere in this dungeon!
