Good props with the Mighty Final Fight... that was like the last NES game to ever be made... really shows the true powers of the 8 Bit glory.

Anybody played Trojan before? That's pretty good stuff.

pinnacle of video game music.

the spectrum of 8-bit sounds that come out of a nes is pretty universally awesome.

as video game music turned more and more into video game pre-recorded scores, it's just not as fun.
