OgreBattle is another soundtrack that I think is underrated, doesn't have a ton of tracks but what it does have is very good.
Was gonna post this. Ogre Battle 64 (which recycles most of the original's music) is probably my favorite soundtrack on the N64, and I'm a man who loves his N64-era music

Hell, I could even make you star in the next Sonic game, I ain't joking around here...
Sonic Unleashed 2: Featuring Jon Talbain?

Does that mean you don't like Mischief Makers? I'm a bit confused...
Every game he's replayed is not as good as he remembers them being, except for Mischief Makers, which is still as good as he remembers it being. So no, he still likes it.
I can't really think of any for myself, except for those old LJN wrestling games on the SNES. I remember renting WWF Royal Rumble fairly often as a kid, so figured I'd check it out again. Apparently, the only thing that made me like it so much was listening to the wrestler's theme songs and laughing my ass off at the constant stream of groans and grunts. Ah, to be a kid again

Most of the songs in M1 were also in M2, so some M1 tracks are in Bound Together, such as Youngtown, Snowman, and the elementary school, to name a few.

Pretty sure the M is for Mission and is just a clever way of calling it Metroid Gaiden.

EazyP / ILLiterate would be proud

The original Metal Gear isn't canon? But that's when Solid Snake fights (and defeats) Big Boss in Outer Heaven, right? They go all through that in the Solid games, why would it be noncanon?
NES is not the original one. It differs from the MSX original. Kojima even went as far as calling the NES port garbage on one of the MGS3 bonus DVDs.

There were only three in the first game. Not counting Mewtwo because he wasn't lord of nature or whatever but just a science project.
But yeah, they lost me entirely after that.
What about Mew? Or Ho-oh? He wasn't in the first game, but he did appear in the first episode or so of the TV show.

I just played a Zangief mirror match in the second match of a Championship
And by mirror, I don't just mean we both picked Gief and went at it. I mean, he literally mirrored every moved I made. The whole thing was just us spinning, jumping, and taunting until time ran out.
I feel bad having won though. I hit him a couple times before I realized what was going on in the first round, but he never attacked me when I walked into him, so I guess it's all cool

Uh... why not just go to the WayBackMachine and look at it?
I posted some helpful links back in this thread
From my limited experiments, I've found there's a greater chance of a thread being archived if it's mentioned on the front page of an archived OCR page. These links should yield better resultsOCR Front Page:
Searching through the GenDisc archives didn't bring up too many archived threads (though more than I found in the links in my first post), but at least we get to see more thread titles and see what passed for conversation pieces back then.

Yo, Sologamer, have you done Zangief's ultra as a counter to akuma's raging demon ultra before? It's the coolest thing to listen to.
That's awesome. Didn't realize that was possible. I usually trigger Akuma's ultra by jumping over their fireballs, which I respond to by mashing HP.
I'll keep that in mind, after some practice in training mode.
Anyone here play Championship mode? I love it, and I play it all the time.It's the only mode I play. Currently sitting on about 5k GP. I usually lose in the first or second match, so I'll probably be there for a while.
-
I JUST lost to one five minutes ago. Completely unavoidable when you're M.Bison and every move you try gets stuffed on a laggy masher.
Bison eh? In that case, you'd have to deal with my jumping headbutt spam.

tie strings to its paws
There are no strings. The guy just sticks his hand under the cat's shirt and manipulates it from there.

I still play this semi-regularly on X360
Let me know if anyone wants to play a non-lariat mashing Zangief for a change.

Go to your control panel (labeled "User CP"), and click on Edit Options. Then scroll down until you hit Thread Display Options. One of the settings Thread Display Mode. Click on the drop-down menu and select "Linear - Oldest First". Now just save your settings and you'll be all set.

Actually, while I know this isn't happening anytime soon, it would be REALLY neat if [Microsoft] made their online service free. Don't get me wrong, I think a charge to play games online would still be necessary (possibly) but I only use Live for a couple arcade game downloads and demos really. I'm not much a multiplayer kind of individual.
They already have a free service for people like you. It doesn't provide online play, but a Silver account gives access to DLC, demos (albeit a week later), and XBLA titles. As far as I know, the only difference between Gold and Silver is online play, Deal of the Week, and earlier game demos.

Considering I haven't even turned mine on in about three months, I don't think have to worry about it overheating.
Irrelevant when it comes to the overheating issue. It's not about turning it on, but about leaving it in standby mode. When the Wii goes to standby mode, it continues to power some components, but completely shuts off the fan. Not turning it on in a while will actually make it worse (assuming you've left WiiConnect24 on), since it'll run hot longer without a chance to cool off.
-
Nintendo has said that it is normal and is nothing to worry about.
I'm pretty sure extreme heat can't be good for the Wii. I seem to remember several reports of busted GPUs due to the overheating. Won't affect everyone, but better to play it safe and disable WiiConnect24. Unless you're really fond of blue lights, you won't miss out on much.

Take-Two Sues Apogee Over ‘Duke Nukem’ Game Sequel
Take-Two Interactive Software Inc., the maker of the “Grand Theft Auto” video games, sued Apogee Software Ltd.’s 3D Realms over the failed development of a sequel to the “Duke Nukem” game called “Duke Nukem Forever.”Take-Two, owner of the publishing rights to the game, said Apogee breached an agreement to design the latest installment of Duke Nukem, a game in which the player “shoots” enemies. The new version has been under development since 1997, the company said yesterday in a complaint in a state court in Manhattan.
3D Realms, which was based in Garland, Texas, never produced the game and instead closed its studio on May 6, terminated development of the game and fired employees who had been involved in the Duke Nukem project, Take-Two said.
“Apogee continually delayed the completion date for the Duke Nukem Forever,” Take-Two said in the complaint. “Apogee repeatedly assured Take-Two and the video-gaming community that it was diligently working toward competing development of the PC Version of the Duke Nukem Forever.”
Take-Two said in 2000 it had an agreement with Apogee and paid $12 million for publishing rights to the forthcoming game. In 2007, the two companies entered into a second agreement.
The case is Take-Two Interactive Software, Inc. v. Apogee Software Ltd. 601457/2009, New York State Supreme Court, New York County (Manhattan).

Might as well also post the Duke Nukem Forever List
Most of the stuff in that IGN article are mentioned, as well as a plethora of other facts

finally found one I actually laughed at, not necessarily at the cat, but still, it's a start I guess

The 8-bit Sonics have some pretty good tracks from what I remember, some of which were reused in latter releases. Unfortunately, they're often overlooked in favor of their 16-bit brethren.
