    There is so much video game nostalgia that it is impossible to list them all.

    I actually only know the last one. Remember it well though. I have orchestral versions of the original Super Mario Bros and Legend of Zelda themes on my Ipod, along with some pop music from Final Fantasy X-2. I guess at 13 years old, that's retro now too (which makes me feel old).

    So much of that old NES and SNES music brings back memories as soon as I hear it. In college in the late 90's, I had a pretty big library of midi files of tons of them.

    The Super Mario World theme is one of the best. So goddamn fast.

    This guy is amazing, here are some of my faves:

    I mean, really, all you have to do is look for any Squaresoft game and there's usually a great piece of music in there. Typically, all of it is fantastic.

    Mario 64 anyone?

    What about newer stuff? I got the chills when this came in during Red Dead Redemption. Huge fan of Jose Gonzalez and had no idea he was in the game:

    Supergiant games have fantastic soundtracks:

    Yeah I like to mix games from different generations. There was just something about system generated music that was awesome.

    DKC 1 was so awesome. The graphics blew me away at the time, and they are still amazong. Rare was such an awesome company under Nintendo.

    I spent so many hours playing this game as a kid and the music is locked in my head to this day.
