Thanks for choosing my request, Game 4:
Castlevania Adventure Rebirth! The funny thing is, I was thinking of the wrong game when listening to this episode. I was thinking
Rondo of Blood, oops! Anyway, Adventure Rebirth has an interesting Castlevania soundtrack. It's not one of my favorite soundtracks, but it has that Genesis synth sound mixed with classic Konami goodness, so I do like it. Pedro is very correct when he talks about the Konami sound.Game 1:
Feel the Magic. Never played it. This game sounds kind of bad!
Game 2:
Adventures in the Magic Kingdom. Haven't played it either.
Nice NES music, though the game concept seems really weird. I wonder what I would have thought of this had I played it as a kid.
Game 3:
Thunder Spirits. Never played this game or even heard of it before, but the soundtrack is kind of cool.
Game 5:
Super Adventure Island. I knew I had heard this music before, but I couldn't remember the game. This was a game that really impressed my as it was one of the first third-party games I rented after I got my
SNES, especially the graphics and the music quality. I love that third song very much. I was totally unfamiliar with the A.I. series at that point, but now I have at least played the first one (NES) on the Wii VC. That game is brutal. I do want to play the TurboGrafx game New Adventure Island , I heard it's one of the better games in the series.And I really don't remember whether the large sprites in this game made it more difficult to play or not. A game like
Super Mario Land 2 features large sprites but is paced slowly enough that you aren't required to make any quick reflex decisions.
Awesome choice of music for closing the episode.
