    Genesis fan? SNES pro? Prove it! Name as many games as you can from their music. 16-bit era games were awesome but let’s see how many of them you know.

    How well can you do? I've got about 20 without any hints.

    I only got 12 ! Fair play to anyone who can get them all without cheating.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,932 ✭✭✭YouSavedMyLife


    Got 12 also but didn't go through them all. Get back to them when the match is over


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,731 ✭✭✭GreenWolfe


    I got 14 without hints and 32 with hints. Difficult!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 34,788 ✭✭✭✭krudler


    got 20 without hints, some are easy (if you dont know the theme to mario then gtfo)

    lol, I was full sure one of them was Robocop, its Robocod :D same theme though so it counts :pac:

    so 20 without hints 42 with what hints i could get, some of them are so easy when you see the screenshot , couldnt believe I forgot the theme tune to NBA Jam ffs spent hours playing that

    Master of the Universe


    Got 39 without hints. Feels like cheating using them. Too easy with the screenshots!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,528 ✭✭✭TomCo


    Got 24, never had a SNES.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,831 ✭✭✭✭CastorTroy


    I just got 12. Some were really easy because they were just tv themes from the time. One I got after just hearing the first note was
    Killer Instinct. Got the cd soundtrack with the game and listened to it repeatedly

    Some of those have really excellent tunes I could listen to


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,641 ✭✭✭zero19


    Got 32, that was fun :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,230 ✭✭✭✭B.A._Baracus

    Got sonic. Can't say I remember the music for Commander Keen or Secret Agent, so wouldn't know even if they came up.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,974 ✭✭✭Chris_Heilong


    Got 32 first try, had to use a hint because I forgot Kidd Chameleon had 2 Ds in Kidd, I can hear Castle of illusion there but no matter what I type it wont work and most of the ones I got were for the Megadrive as thats what i had.

    36 no hints, didn't have a Genesis so I had no idea of alot them. I have Genesis rom set so a few rang familiar with me.

    Some were arcade ports which were instantly recognisable to me.

    63 with hints. Even with screenshots I had no idea what game I was looking at :pac: Should've been 64 but it wouldn't take Kirby's Avalanche or it's other name Puyo Puyo which were the only 2 names that I know of the game is called.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,974 ✭✭✭Chris_Heilong


    with hints I got 78, some of them were so obvious with the hint.
    the last ones I have never even seen before, mostly sports.

    got 25 on the first run through. could get more with the hints etc easy enough I reckon. Nice little game


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,566 ✭✭✭Funglegunk


    Some quality tunes there. Streets of Rage soundtrack 4 EVAR. I got 37 using hints. I can't even get some of them from the screenshots.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,966 ✭✭✭Scavenger XIII


    35-odd without hints, 75 with.

    Mostly sports games and some obscure platformers I couldn't get.

    I never paid attention to the video game music plus I reckon I'm more of a naughties gamer, as I was old enough to appreciate them then.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,738 ✭✭✭mawk
