I'll tell you this one is a TurboGrafx-16 game, since most people probably never had one of those. But that's your only hint, because it's the most distinctive music from any game on that system (not including music via Turbo's CD attachment, which appeared two decades before its time).

Feels like Castlevania, so I'd say Rondo of Blood. Never got the chance to play it on Turbografx though, so it's still a best guess.

I'll add a hint and say it's a rather legendary title...

Would someone else mind posting and I'll take a rain check on that? I am currently out of town and don't really have access to editing tools.

Yep. (Or the Genesis version, which I played to death and was true to the arcade original.)

You're up.

Man, I loved the original Strider. I liked the NES game as well, though it was quite different.

Here's the next one.

I played Strider a lot on my friend's Genesis. (The one with Sword of Vermillion.) That game was great. It truly gave me a love for a Really Big Sword.

You keep sounding younger than your profile pic would lead me to believe, mister Imer...

Well, you seem to be less of a cynic than your profile pic suggests, so it all balances out somehow.

No, but it could have been an influence!

This is from the NES in the late 80's. It was a pretty hard game, more from being obtuse than outright difficult though. You could select from a host of different characters from the same family (even their "dog")

Okay, that sounds more familiar...

I'm going to guess Legacy of the Wizard.

That's it! Good job. I started with what I thought was the most "iconic" bit of music, from the first floor dungeons. My favorite, anyways

The third piece was the theme for the father.

As long as we're still doing NES games, here's a song I think is pretty good. I'd be lying if I said I had fond childhood memories of the game this came from, since I only discovered the game a couple of years ago. But it's a fun game and I enjoyed playing it.

I think that is from the guardian legend, am i right?

Yes, Suwako has the correct answer.

The Guardian Legend is kind of a weird cross between a shoot-em-up and the on-foot sections of Blaster Master. This isn't the "game recommendations" thread, though, so I'll just say that there were a couple of other tracks from the same game that I could have picked. Unfortunately there wasn't really anything "iconic" to pick like the first level theme from Blaster Master, though, so I just picked something that would be memorable to someone who'd already played the game.

This is a song from a very hard NES game.

Yes, I only passed the first and second tower, got stucked on the third or fourth, it's very hard. A great puzzle game with a good repetitive song.

I picked up the Adventures of Lolo just a couple of years ago and really loved it. I don't think I beat it all but the puzzles were great, for being so simple.

Batman, for the NES. I tried it on an emulator a few years back and enjoyed it but don't think I even got past the first level.
