Name that VGM
« on: October 04, 2012, 04:35:13 am »

Hey guys. I love retro video game music and I thought I would start up this game to have a little fun with it. Please let me know what you think.

How the game works:
I will post a link to a youtube video that contains a piece of video game music(Nintendo 64/Playstation or earlier). Your job is to answer 2 questions: 1. What game is the music from? 2. Where in that game does that music play?
Every piece will be up for 5 days. If someone gets the game correct but not where in the game it plays, then everyone else will have 24 hours to steal the point(s). I will post a hint here for every day the game is not identified.

There are 3 difficulty levels:
Easy- 1 point per question
Medium- 2 points per question
Hard- 3 points per question

Only answers posted in this thread will count. I will be keeping a leaderboard updated. This is purely for fun, though and I'll keep this going as long as people are interested.

Current VGM: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gDvJBEiSweY
Level: Hard

Hints:
8-bit Kirby
Spinoff
Stars between animals
Stack stars to defeat King Dedede

Leaderboard:
1st: Freeformschooler- 4 points
2nd: Reudh- 2 points

Past VGM:
Donkey Kong Country 2- Stickerbrush Symphony
Pokemon Snap- Rainbow Cloud

Waaaaaayyyy too easy. I practically grew up listening to this song.

Bramble Blast / Stickerbrush Symphony. It's from Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest. Plays in the levels Bramble Blast, part of Screech's Sprint, Bramble Scramble.

The game's from the Super Nintendo.

Yeah I wanted to start it out easy just to get the game going, but good job. 2 points to you Reudh. Next one should be up shortly. They get harder I promise.

New song is up. Good luck!
Edit: How should I handle hints? Should I post a reply for each hint or put them in the OP?

Wow, I can't believe I got this one. This song is from a game that wasn't too good, but brings me nostalgia as I used to be a huge Pokemon fan :D

Good job Freeform. 4 points to you. I actually really enjoy the game myself. I just loved going on a scenic tour of the pokemon world.

I am not sure, but I believe it's from Kirby's Dreamland 2 on the Game Boy. Guessing it's a boss battle.

It sounds like an 8-bit version of another Kirby tune I once heard. I can't remember the name, and my YouTube-fu is failing me <_<
