MegaMan style music

[Nando]

Lately I've been listening to the Megaman 2 and 3 OST and I can't get enough.

What other game soundtracks do you all recommend that may be in a similar vein. What other MM soundtracks do you all recommend?

Thanks!

MM3.


Capcom shit sounds like Capcom shit.  Listen to all their NES games for similar tunes.

Well yeah I could do that, but I was also hoping for some other leads and broader choices.

I did find this http://www.playthenes.com/6.5.0.Tunes/6.5.0.Tunes.php

We need something like that for Chip Choons

Ducktales and Yo! Noid.  You will be set for life.

Get the NSFs for Legendary Wings and Titan Warriors.  Those are done by (roughly) the same musicians at roughly the same period.

Same goes for Son Son 2 and SideArms on the PCE.

Yep. The PCE version of Sidearms has a noticeably different soundtrack than the arcade version. Unfortunately, the tunes in Sidearms Special are odd remixes of the arcade version's soundtrack.

Mega Man 2 was composed by Takashi Tateishi.  He also composed the music for Willow and LED Storm for the arcades and Side Arms Special on the PC Engine.  Sadly, he retired from composing after leaving Capcom in 1990.

Mega Man 3 was composed (mostly) by Yasuaki Fujita.  He also worked on Darkwing Duck (NES), The Little Mermaid (NES), Tenchi wo Kurau II (NES), Who Framed Roger Rabbit (GB), Final Fight 2 (SNES), Breath of Fire (SNES) and a few other non-descript mahjong and card games for the Super Famicom.  Also composed Solar Man's theme for the somewhat recent Mega Man 10.

Dragon Slayer II has a few classic Mega Man sounding chip tunes, but this one in particular is more classic Mega Man bgm sounding than most classic Mega Man bgms-

Sapphire also has a Mega Man X sounding soundtrack.

Woah, I never thought about that!  That track has some sort of fire level sound for an MM.  Spotaneous Combustion Man!

Power Quest on GBC.


It's actually a great fighting game that flew under the radar back in the day. I cut my fighting teeth on it back in 1999 as I was getting into Street Fighter Alpha 3. It's great for beginners, but it's solid enough for anybody to enjoy. It's got an interesting story mode with light RPG elements, too, but it's a fighter through and through.

I have always liked the soundtracks from mega man 4-6.  Napalm man, flame man, blizzard man, skull man.... so many good tracks!

Some samples for your quick linking pleasure.

Blizzardman (MM6)
Flameman (MM6)
Napalm Man (MM5)
Skullman (MM4)
Waveman (MM5)

When I tell people I listen to video game music they instantly assume NES Mario Brothers music.... and while that theme is ok in its own right, I really don't listen to it much.I really don't listen to much NES music at all.  The Megaman games are an exception.  These six soundtracks (and maybe Duck Tales) are the only 8 bit music I do much listening to.  It amazes how they were able to make such immersive music with so few tools.

DUDE, do you have more of this? More PSG tunes from CD games, please!

I want a centralized respository of .hes and/or .mp3's of PSG from CD (among other things! ha!) ...
