I'm torn because you didn't put Tragic Prince as the best, but at least you didn't put Lost Painting like everyone else.

Lost Painting is a loving awesome song but I will always rock Vampire Killer.

Edit: Bloody Tears is loving awesome too

"Carbons? Purge? What are you talking about?!"

I've never gotten that far in SotN despite really liking and beating CotM, AoS, DoS and the similar Metroidy ones. I should check it out, I'm pretty sure I have it on my Vita already.


Anyway I've always been really partial to the music from the first level of Castlevania 1 for the NES because I'm old as hell and that game was great, and the music was on par with the best music for the system at the time even if the virtual instrumentation (not sure what to call it really) was awful compared to stuff like Mega Man III.

I am no Castlevania expert (I played SOTN to the Actual Ending once a couple years back) but this seems like the best track posted in the thread to me.

But I always liked this one (Super Castlevania IV - Simon Belmont's Theme for those of us without embeds):

The western world got screwed over on 8-bit soundtracks since the NES didn't have sound expansion capabilities.

If you imported the Famicom from Japan though, many cartridges had extra sound chips inside that added more channels than the ones included in the base system.

Both Zelda, Metroid and Castlevania has much nicer soundtracks on the Famicom

it would require some effort but you could download the entire audio as an mp3 file with https://www.youtube2mp3.cc/ and then use mp3DirectCut or similar to chop up and save individual portions as tracks without reencoding

I love this song despite it not making any sense playing in the colosseum. It's got that perfect late 90's "games on CD" feel imo.
