Awesme Guitar Covers....
« on: March 07, 2012, 10:01:00 PM »

There are some really GREAT covers of classic NES games covered with awesome guitar renditions.

How could we add that to the emu experience?

Here are my three favorites, so far, in no particular order:

1. Duck Tales, The Moon

2. Blaster Master - Area 4 Theme

Castlevania 2, Blood Tears



No end to this awesomeness.  In my mind, and apparently in the minds of the re-creators some of the most potent NES songs ever made.

What do you think?

Shouldn't these be showcased in the new releases somehow?

Piano, not guitar, but her stuff is great.  This one is Terra's Theme from Final Fantasy VI (III US).

Check out her other stuff too.

Haha, HCF!

Laughing my ass off listening to the ragtime Ghosts'n Goblins.  That was awesome.




Hey Movax,

Never played that game other than testing it, so I'm not familiar with the song, but it rocked for sure.




Hey XBoxer!

I know man, ain't this cool?  I really love hearing what my favorite NES songs would sound like if they were PS2/PS3 games.  I just wish somebody would cover the end theme of Godzilla now.




If anybody sees any good ones post them here smile.gif

And in an awesome reversal, 8-bit Don Henley of the Eagles doing one of the best songs ever for the NES lol.

Should add this to D-Pad Hero!
