Ohhh boy... This is going to be a long post...

 

• Pokemon: Pallet Town, Emotion, Route 209
• Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney: pretty much the entire OST.
• Professor Layton: Puzzles, Curious Village theme, Calm Afternoon
• Super Mario World: Athletic Theme
• Super Mario Galaxy: Gusty Garden Galaxy
• Donkey Kong Country Tropical Freeze: Rocket Barrel!!
• Digimon World: (1) File City Theme [day/night], (3) Leader Battle
• Rhythm Heaven Fever: Most of the game, but particularly Ringside, Samurai Slice, Flock Step and Air Rally. (BA BUM BUM BUM! *whish*)
• Super Mario RPG: Mushroom Kingdom, Midas River, Booster Hill, Boss Battle Theme
• Banjo Kazooie: Spring Click Clock Wood, Spiral Mountain
• DuckTales: Moon theme
• World of Warcraft: The Barrens, Durotar (maybe because I was stuck in these two zones for so long.)
• Legend of Zelda: Dragon Roost Island, Outset Island
• Undertale: Undertale

And this is pretty much the top of my list.

• Primal Dialga's Theme, full stop.
• RollerCoaster Tycoon 2's title theme.
• Pretty much the whole of SimCity 2000's sweet MIDI soundtrack, but especially the moody and melancholy "10003."
• Pokemon Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald's ending theme.
• The Pokemon League daytime exterior music from Diamond/Pearl/Platinum.

In my opinion the soundtracks of Metal Gear Rising Revengence and Destiny are my favorite.

[Victoria Sponge 1,014]

 

Super Mario Galaxy, played a major part in my childhood and has some really beautiful music that fits the space theme perfectly.

Mario and Luigi Bowser's Inside Story is also pretty memorable to me, I used to love that game and it had some very catchy and happy music.

I would have to say the theme song from GTA 4 known as The Soviet Connection.

[Moony the Cat 3,695]

The most memorable Music Pieces for me are :

- Some of the Music from Silent Hill Games, specially the End Credits Songs like Hometown from Silent Hill 3, Cradle of Forest from Silent Hill 4 and When youre gone from Silent Hill Shattered Memories, even though im not sure if it was an end credits song.

- The Credits Theme from Kirbys Dream Course, i found it so cute and beautiful, that i cried ( just a little ) the first time hearing the music and i recorded it on tape, making it the first soundtrack i ever owned.

- Some of the Rayman 1 Music, specially Mr. Darks Theme and the 2 Boss Songs from the Painting World.

- pretty much all composed Songs from Obscure 1 and 2.

- The Theme Song for Alone in the Dark - The New Nightmare.

- The two Songs from Pop Will Eat Itself, from the game Loaded.

- The Theme Song from Flipull and lets just end it here, or the List will go on for...WAIT A MINUTE, the freaking Worms Theme Songs, my favorite Video Game Music of all time as a child, how i could i forget that? XD

[FalloutBrony 137]

this song reminds me when I use to play the first halo with my bros when splitscreen was still a thing

[danparkerstudios 26]

Some in the first 3 Spyro the Dragon games. Like the home world's music in Spyro 2 and Evening Lake in Spyro 3 for example.

[Steve Piranha 28,748]

Damn, I've got so many that we will never en here, but some of my stand outs are

 

 

 

 

And in anything Yoko Shimomura has worked on. She's not a videogame music genius, she's THE videogame music genius. Some examples are the Mario & Luigi series, Mario RPG, Parasite Eve, and the Kingdom Heart series

[Windchime 184]

After thinking about all my options, I decide on Undertale with it's absolutely fantastic soundtrack. Watch out for spoilers!

 

[Celli 4,332]

Most definitely Brinstar Red Soil.

Super Metroid is my favorite game of all time, and this piece is absolutely phenomenal. It's so eerie and mysterious, and a drastic change in tone after going through Overgrown Brinstar.

[Nara 84]

I think this is one of my fav game pieces

 

[Guest]

ANGEL ISLAND ZONE ACT 2 FROM SONIC 3 & KNUCKLES. I freaking love it, so nostalgic and memorable

[DixonTheAdversary 1,631]

The menu theme to Destruction Derby: Arenas is pretty memorable to me.

Along with the entire Hot Wheels: Beat That soundtrack. (Of course I had the PS2 version, so the playlist I listed isn't 100% correct to being memorable to me, but almost all of the same songs are there, just switched around to different levels.)

Super Mario World 2 Yoshi's Island ending music 

 

Edited July 10, 2017 by Snowbreezze

[Guest]

The intro music to GTA III.

 

And the main theme from DOOM 3.

 

[darkwingmare 1,296]

The first game that always comes to mind is usually Halo, the first game that I played on the old Xbox, when it first came out.

It always pumps me up so much! I love it, gives me so much nostalgia.

Legend of Zelda: Dragon Roost Island, Outset Island

I love both of these themes. Dragon Roost would have to be my favorite out of those two.

 

As for me, probably this theme

The first time I heard this during his fight, my heart stopped and I knew it would become one of my favorite bosses of all time. The way the choir builds up to the climax of the song is amazing. I get shivers listening to it and my heart races when I fight the boss with this theme playing. 

Another memorable theme would have to be Slave Knight Gael's theme from The Ringed City, ESPECIALLY his phase 2 theme.

Oh and another track would be Midna's Lament from Twilight Princess for almost making me cry

I really love both the US and Japan soundtrack for Sonic CD. Also, the soundtrack for Freedom Planet is pretty sweet too!

 

 

 

[Cash In 21,489]

Jolly Roger Bay/Dire Dire Docks - Mario 64

[Tacodidra 59,776]

I could mention pretty much the entirety of Sonic 2 here. Hard to name a particular standout, though the themes for Casino Night and Metropolis Zone are the two that came to my mind first (coincidentally the zones that are my favorite and least favorite).

As for other games, I'll give yet another mention for Sonic, with "Escape from the City" from Sonic Adventure 2. And the music from the NES Mario games can't be forgotten either!

[BritishBrony2012 718]

Some musics from Spyro: Year of the dragon

[BlazeTurner 7]

Talk about a perfect Transition

But for childhood Soundtrack based, I'de say the music i heard for so long...
