Let's start a new game--Name that NES tune! Similar to name that screenshot, but with music. Just post a link to an NES tune and let people guess. The person who gets it correct can post another themself or ask for another tune from someone else. Got it? Good, Here's your first tune:
http://www.vgmusic.com/music/console/nintendo/nes/victory.mid
And because vgmusic won't let you outside link, just cut and paste the above url into your browser.
Is that from 'Dr. Mario'?
*Waits for confirmation*
You are indeed correct! :D
It is the victory music from Dr. Mario.
Now you can post a tune yourself! If you do not want to, I can post another for you.
Let's see... I'll try to host this...
Here is a low quality mp3 of an actual NES game music rip.

It's about 400kB (hopefully not too big for most of you). It's one of the most "sinister" melodies I've ever heard from any game ever! Still one of my all-time favorites.

That sir, is from Castlevania 2:Simon's Quest. Dracula's lair right before you are about to fight him...
Now, I'm so confident I'm right, I'll post the next one:

And as before, cut and paste into a new window as vgmusic doesn't allow offsite linking.

Bingo!
As for that last one...
That is from 'Bionic Commando'. Yes.
It's a Level theme, I believe.
I'm going to pretend to be confident now and post the next tune.
[url=http://www.thevillens.com/hosted/NEStune03.mp3]NAME THIS TUNE ALSO![/url]
???
I must admit, you've got me stumped. The tune is reminiscent from a Capcom game, although I can't quite put my finger on which one.
You were correct about Bionic Commando, btw. :)
Cool! :lol:
Alrighty then, I thought perhaps this thread had died... Let me see...

As before, since vgmusic doesn't like off-sit linking, just cut and paste the above text into a new window.
Cheers!
Is that from Double Dragon?
No and no. Think about it. You are getting very close Zen as it is a Disney game.
Here is a clue: There is a terror that flaps in the night.
I may have made it a wee bit too obvious now.
i am the terror that flaps in the night..... i am the milk that covers your cornflakes
the answer would be darkwing duck :D
You are indeed correct Baz. :D Now your turn to come up with a tune.
Well, it's been a couple of days... So I'll assume Baz doesn't want to submit one and submit another.

As before cut and paste into a new window.
I've been trying for days to no avail. Can you at least give a hint? :(
Ok a hint, this game, published by Vic Tokai had a graphical style which was heavily influenced by anime. A rarity, as at the time of it's release(1989), very few games were. Of course, you couldn't tell by the box art as it depicted a scene from what looked like a Flash Gordon movie.
You are correct Zen! As the the rules state, it is now your turn to post the next tune!

Not the most accurate MIDI version but still a good song.
Hmmm... I'm having a hard time placing this one...
Hint:
Alligators...
swamp...
Jeep...
?
The Adventures of Bayou Billy?
Gah, most tunes from VGMusic have the game name in the URL. There's gotta be a way to prevent that... Oh well.

You can probably tell without actually listening to it...
[quote=ZEN](Because showing off my NES knowledge is the true sign of manliness.)
Whatever happened to chest hair being the true sign?
That one would be from a game called Blaster Master.
sound like Final Fantasy ?
