As with the N64 list you did a lot is just down to nostalgia. For me anything from Chrono Trigger is high on my list but particularly To Far Away Times being my favourite song from any SNES game as it means a lot to me.

I played that as I was older but yeah that ost is very good
Chrono Trigger and Final Fantasy VI were my two favourites so most of the songs from those games would be on my list but Donkey Kong had a lot of great music and so did Mega Man. Very catchy tunes.

David Wise has a style all to his own and he came out with an instant classic, love the way this one builds up and the twists and turns in the song which become prevalent in a lot of his stuff which is rarely repetitive

This song was ahead of its time as Pokemon in its latter gens would sample a lot of similar themes used through this song. Just really love the the way it grooves and sounds amazing aswell through headphones

Get hype! This one is just balls to the wall and just starts perfectly with that slow building tension before breaking out to an absolute banger

David Wise is about to dominate this top 10, he can make some incredibly beautiful songs that haven’t been replicated since. This is one of many songs that could easily be at 1

Beautiful and haunting this song solidified the first DKC as an instant classic, it’s amazing what Wise was able to do with the limitations of the SNES. Another song that could be argued as one of the best VGS of all time

One of the most upbeat songs you may ever hear, can’t help but smile or tap your feet to this one. An iconic song that would be ingrained into anyone’s head who played SMW as a kid
