Favorite Video Game Song?

What's your favorite retro video game song?

Welcome from Ape Escape 1 is by far my favorite song in the entire game, and definitely one of my all-time favorite video game tunes.

All of them!

Anything from Super Mario Bros. 1 and 3.

Also anything from Pokémon Red/Blue, but especially the Silph Co. theme, the battle themes, and the Gym theme. It's epic.

^'Athletic'? Man knows quality, dammit.

Some of my fave game music comes from 'Soul Blade' (PSX). 'Desperate Struggle' is super awesome---I'd love to hear a real orchestral arrangement of it.

'Bravely Folk Song', 'Soul and Sword', 'Gears of Madness', and 'Dragon's Call' are all terrific, too. Hell, the whole soundtrack is great.

Sorry, I thought it might be more fun if it were a surprise. I'll do that after my haircut.
