Hmm, 32 does sound familiar... This probably isn't right, but

No, 32 is definitely The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap. I probably wouldn't have known that had I not sequenced this song.

Lunar: Yep on just 31. I'd have prefered to use the Amiga version, but without working sound files, that was a no-go. +1 point for you.

Powerlord: Nope. Sorry.

Jaytser: Correct! I also thought about using the Temple of Droplets instead, but went for the Palace of Wind because the former was a little too distinctive. Both are great tunes though. +1 point for you. (...omigosh, doesn't that make 10!? :shock: hot diggity...)

Going back to old ones, since one of them was already guessed for #023, I'll guess the other one: Zelda: Oracle of Ages.

Could #1 (Wow... I'm going WAY back here...) possibly be from Darkwing Duck?
If it is I'll be surprised I didn't get that sooner.

#31 sounds like something from the Neutopia series. I'll guess Neutopia 1.

30 - Raiden 2

I think I actually know this one this time!

Powerlord, Darkstom, & Mad Adder: Sorry. No dice.

Adder: I assume you meant another one since Lunar already got #31 (Cannon Fodder), but I'll be nice and tell you that none of the stuff already posted/unclaimed is from Neutopia. Sorry.

Talking Chicken: Yes! +1 point for you!

Oh, and like I mentioned earlier, tomorrow I'll start putting up clues for the first day's tunes along with the regular samples for tomorrow (a trend that will continue regularly so long as people desire it so).

[edit]
One last thing I almost forgot. There's a log of the old quiz answers (back to Daniel Lawrence anyway) posted under the main sample listings now. The numbers are still there (as well as some tune names), though they are all listed alphebetically instead of numberically.

Hah, I got lucky with that one. I only recognized it because I've got a remix of it somewhere (for those that care, I got it here, it's the one that got 3rd place). Since the remix was from two games and I haven't played Raiden 1 or 2 in any great depth (though I played the second one on a ferry I take sometimes), I was pretty much taking a guess as to which one it actually came from, though I was using the archive to help. w00t!

Dude, that is some sweet stuff there! :twisted: Though it does feel like fatalM4's version of Rock Garden is a bit of a rip compared to the one that orbik finished a few months or so ago... (click here to see what I mean, or if you prefer the original Ogg Vorbis files he made, you'll want to wander over here)

In other news... 4 new samples are up! Also, here are today's hints for the first 5 tracks. Well, what's still unguessed anyway (1, 3, 4, & 5)....
Hint 01-1: You could also think of it as several games rolled into one.
Hint 03-1: You can quite literally have a ball with this classic platformer.
Hint 04-1: A rather solid platformer from a rather well known series.
Hint 05-1: Though from an extremely well known series, this game is more of a spin-off than anything else.

Correct on #36 (even better, correct on the TG16 version). No luck on the others. +1 point.

[edit]Ooooh. And now 1st place is tied. Let the match... BEGIN! (heh, heh)
