To celebrate their upcoming release of Rare Replay, an Xbox One collection of 30 classic games, game developer Rare is teaming up with iam8bit to release vinyl soundtracks of some of their classic games.  The game soundtracks included thus far include Battletoads, Banjo-Kazooie and Perfect Dark, all three of which were originally on Nintendo consoles and are still fondly remembered by fans today.

Originally a second party game studio for Nintendo, Rare released dozens of classic games on Nintendo's consoles from the late 80's until they were purchased by Microsoft in 2002 like the ones mentioned above, as well as the Donkey Kong Country Trilogy and Donkey Kong 64, which are available for purchase on the Wii U's Virtual Console.

All three soundtracks are purchasable at iam8bit at a price range of $25-35.  Which one(s) will you be picking up?

This is cool but I realize the Rare soundtracks I really want are for DKC1 & 2 and obviously those aren't going to be included in this.
