      If I could take the ambiance of the Wildwood boardwalk, and play it through the pi. That would be lovely.

      Wildwood is legendary. I would have loved to visit Dracula's Castle.

        @mediamogul On the topic of Wildwood, Sam's Pizza or Macks?

        (Everyone else will be wondering what we are talking about)

          Hah! Like Republicans and Democrats, G.I. Joe and Cobra, or even Captain & Tennille, one couldn't exist without the other. However, I gotta side with Sam's. Cheddar on a pie is as egregious to my senses as "Muskrat Love".

              I know this doesn't have much to do with retro gaming music but I still think that Borderlands soundtracks are worth mentioning. I like the ambient feeling.

                  The map selection BGM in Yoshi's Island is great:

                          These are some great suggestions, guys! :) I added most of these to my own setup. Keep them coming!

                              Haha! I can't tell you how many times I've heard this! We had this at my work for many years and finally changed it to something else last year!

                                @backstander and the guy who wrote it got exactly $0 for it.

                                  The best sounding system is scarse in your list: PC Engine. Only 2 TG16 tracks, and not even the best.
                                  Some PC Engine titles are even better than the arcade versions:
                                  Galaga 88
                                  Kyukuoku Tiger
                                  Dragon Spirit
                                  Bomberman tunes (If you wanna laugh, play Sega Mega Bomberman afterwards)
                                  Space Harrier

                                  And IMO Sonic 1 and 2 for the GameGear are filled with outstanding chiptunes, outclassing the Megadrive cousins.

                                    @blanka Yes, and I feel terrible for it. I'm just starting to get into the TG16 library, and would love to know more. I know about some shooters, Air Zonk, Super Soldier Blade, Ginga Fukei Densetsu Sapphire, Lords of Thunder, ... but that's it. Thanks for your suggestions, don't hesitate to link any song in particular you wouldn't want me to miss!

                                      Sir can i ask what emulator did you used for outrunners for rpi3? Im having problems with the rom or emulator compatibility, tried it mame4all, advmame, mame2003, mame2010. It works on mame2010 but it is very slow and unplayable same with run and gun2.

                                        Here's an odd ... but a good one.

                                        It's been used for the gameboy game robocop, washing machine commercials, and most recently in the documentary "how video games changed the world".

                                            @Ditch123 wrong thread, but I just looked and it seems I can't run out runners on my Pi either. I just assumed it would, since I was able to make it work on a Windows emulator. Sorry about that!
