Name that Game Soundtrack Version 3
 

Before the discovery of the Video Game Music Quiz, this was the equivalent of it on these forums. Version 1 got closed and Version 2 never really took off, so I figured maybe it's time to give this another try. I have no idea who came up with the idea in the first place, but credit goes to him/her.

Here's how this works. You post a link to a song you want us to guess what soundtrack it's from (I'm using a link instead of an attachment so we don't overload the forums). It's the job of anyone who wants to participate to guess what game it's from. If no one gets it within a certain period of time (anywhere from 1-3 days), a clue should be posted in order to help the guessers out. This clue can be either written in text, a picture, or even another song from the game. Don't be TOO obvious with your clues unless it's the last clue. If no one can get it after 3 clues, post the name(s) of the song(s) and the game it's from so we don't go crazy trying to figure it out 3 months later (if you were around for Version 1, you know we had a few of those). Now some ground rules for the songs:

1. The length of the song can be anywhere from 15 seconds to the full song.

2. The song can be from a gamerip if no soundtrack is available.

3. Songs must be in mp3 format. If you can't do mp3, then put it in wav. Those are your only choices.

4. Songs cannot be from fan-made games (flash, hacks, etc.), they have to be from video games that you can find at stores or even Ebay. If it's a Japan only game, that's fine.

5. Songs cannot be fan-made remixes or official remixes. Only the original version can be used. However, there are two instances to which this rule does not apply.
a. The song was remixed into a different port of the game. For example, Dragon Quest VIII for the US uses orchestrated music instead of the original music like in Japan's version, so it's okay.
b. The song was not in the game, but was on an official OST of the game. For example, Singing Mountain was not in Chrono Trigger, but it was on its official soundtrack. It may be used.

I think that's all the rules for now. More may come in or some might even disappear if we run into any problems. This isn't a contest, but if enough support is shown we can start keeping score.

Have fun!

Someone else can start with a track unless you want me to do it.

Sounds cool. May I start? Please give me only one second for uploading the track...

EDIT: Okay, ladies and gentlemen, here it is!

I'm sure it's not that difficult for our VGM freaks here. :)

No clue what it would be from but it sounds Playstation-ish.

That's from the first Golden Sun: the theme from Lunpa's hideout.

You're right! It's from Golden Sun for GBA and the music in Lunpa's hideout and the storm in Vale (in the intro) respectively.

Congratulations, now it's your turn!

That would be from Tetris Attack. I believe it's the aquatic level.

Yup, correct on both counts: the theme of Lunge Fish and the undersea stage from Tetris Attack. Game has some of the best overall bass in VGM.

Your turn.

Lunge fish, that's his name! I had forgotten.

Time for my awesome song, on megaupload because I don't want to risk putting mp3s on my school webspace.

Here you go

"lol"

Oy, you better make sure it's not tagged! :D

Unless that's a decoy, or something. I certainly don't know the song.

Wow, that's from a game? I don't know what it is but I've gotta say, I've never heard anything like it. That's an interesting use of sound effects.

I have to work tonight, so I'm gonna leave a first clue now for people.

CLUE 1: The game this song is only out in Japan.
CLUE 2: A large number of composers wrote music for this game.

Really no idea so I just guess: Cho Aniki?

Final clue: The number of games in this series is in the double digits.

I'll probably won't give it more than a day before revealing the answer if no one gets it, to keep things moving.

EDIT

Well, since it looks like no one's going to guess this, the song is Auslandsgesprach from Pop'n Music 11, possibly also known as "80's werk", the genre it is given in the game.

I probably should've put up something easier at first, until more people were attracted in here. Oh well. Whoever sees this next can put up a new song, and get things moving again.

Well whatever! I dug that track, haha!

Here's my contribution--this should be easy, I think:

Dang, it sounds like it would be used in Megaman but I'm not too sure.

That sounds like a first generation SNES game or something. :S Hmm...

I don't think I'll spoil anything by saying that yes, it is a SNES track.

It's not Megaman though!

Additional Spam:
Well crap, maybe I was wrong and this one's too hard...

I guess I'll give the first hint now:

My best guess is Ranma 1/2 something something... Catchy tune though!

Btw, cool thread, but why you all going Jap-only stuff? :edgartpg:

Nope! I'm quite surprised that this hasn't been guessed yet...

I didn't really think about whether it was Japanese, but I guess it is. Next time I come around I'll put up something from a Western composer, then. :D

My first thought was Rudra no Hihou, but I don't believe it's from that game.

Nope. That's a great soundtrack though!

I guess it's time for another clue... I give you CLUE NUMBER TWO!

Ha, your avatar and sig sort of give it away! Super Puyo Puyo 2. Track's called "The Top Floor" in the RSN.

That was gonna be the last hint, yeah. :tpg: I always prefered this version a great deal over the SPP2Remix version, despite being mono and having somewhat lower quality sounds.

You go next!

Alrighty, next one. Bit on the easier side (I think):
