vertigoelectric Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 I hope you guys don't consider this spam, and I hope this is the appropriate place to share. I have recently begun designing a website where I've made over 1300 original NES soundtracks available for download (that's not 1300 tracks, that's 1300 games with complete track listings). Yesterday I've also implemented the ability to listen to each track directly on the site before actually downloading them. It's still in its early stages, but I think it's turning out quite well and I wanted to drive a bit more traffic to it and share it with you guys. If you're interested in checking it out, I want to also ask a favor. I don't expect anybody to donate money, but I did set up AdSense and put a Google ad on the left. Clicking it is the same as donating because I get money for clicks except it doesn't cost you anything. Anyway, you don't have to, but it really does help me out. Later today if I can get around to it I'm going to start trying to set up some affiliate links on the site as well, including a link to OCRemix. Anyway, thanks guys. I hope you do like the site and if you have any suggestions for it, I'd be happy to hear them. Again, I hope this isn't an inappropriate post. EDIT: I actually forgot the link to my site, haha: http://nesost.vertigofx.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dissidia Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 This is cool. But is it really possible for such a website to exist? Don't you need permission for all those songs? Nonetheless, I'll enjoy it, and click on some ads now and then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rozovian Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 But is it really possible for such a website to exist? Don't you need permission for all those songs? Well, this site has been around for a while. And like snesmusic.org, Vertigo, do a torrent for it all. Just make sure the metadata is consistent and stuff.

Sam Ascher-Weiss Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 the use of the word original in the thread title had me thinking this was a site devoted to newly created 8bit soundtracks for make believe games...I was all excited...

Dissidia Posted March 31, 2011 Share Posted March 31, 2011 I like that you can stream on the NES site. It doesn't have the song titles though. I just noticed Final Fantasy I, track 9 has the Gulug Mountain melody found in Final Fantasy IX. A site purely for original 8-bit songs would be tasty.
