    Default Top 10 NES soundtrack Nominations

    Hello all I am thinking about making a list of the top 10 NES soundtracks (gameplay doesn't count, just the music) and I would like some help. If you have a game or two for me to listen to add it here and after a while make a list of the popular titles to whittle it down to top 10. So suggest away.

    at the lack of Konami and Sunsoft games.

    In no particular order: (and yes, I chose more than 10)

    Blaster Master, Journey to Silius, Mega Man 2, Ninja Gaiden, Crystalis, Mr. Gimmick, Metroid, Batman, Castlevania, Mega Man 3, Castlevania III, Gremlins II, Contra, Wizards & Warriors

    Sunsoft and Konami by far had the best tunes available. Not knocking Nintendo by any means, but it was pure amazement what Sunsoft did. Heck, even Fester's Quest has a good soundtrack.

    In no particular order:
    Mario 3
    Megaman 2
    Batman
    Zelda 1
    Zelda 2
    Metroid
    Castlevainia 3
    Ninja Gaiden
    Double Dragon
    Contra
    I think I like the Batman and Megaman 2 soundtracks the best, but my favorite single Nes. song is Zelda 1's overworld theme.

    A lot of the Ultra (Konami) games had some great soundtracks as well (TMNT and Basewars comes to mind). Just to add to the convo...
