My father passed away this past august this was the very 1st video game He and I ever played together and every time I hear this character select music it makes me shed a tear for the good times 🥲
I feel your pain brother, My father passed this past December. He got me this game for my 10th Birthday in 1996. This tune brings a smile to my face even though I am grieving.
The most beautiful character selection music in the entire Tekken saga. Many memories, this music reminds me of my carefree childhood, it gives me a sense of nostalgia. My main character has always been Kazuya Mishima.
It was a choice between this and Tekken 3. I went with Tekken 3 for nostalgia as that was a time I used to work at the Chessington World of Adventures theme park and after work we used to have Tekken 3 battles with the guys from work back in 1998. Also the arcade machine was really really loud!
True , but what Musicians like Yuzo Koshiro did with their limitations , made their talent shine even more. Playstation , there was no limitations. It was CD music.
I'm a fan of the Tekken series but of them all I must say Tekken 2 is my favorite because of the music. Great scores like this one just make it an overall masterpiece
Wow, 1996 was a great year for the military. I was a Army brat and I played this everyday waiting to have the chance to beat my dad when he returned from deployment
Wow, never fully appreciated this game much because I started with Tekken 3. But playing it now I can say this is the best character select theme of the series.
This music takes me back to the mid 90’s when the only worry I had was making sure the Simpson’s was going to be on at 6:00pm on BBC2 during Wimbledon season
Someone asked me which tekken Character select theme was the best one.. in my mind it was tekken 3 so i told him tekken 3 .. now am listening to all themes again to re evaluate them and i think tekken 2 is the best one .. no biases
I prefer this over the arcade version, the arcade version is ok, but this version is more clear, and has more to it, the arcade version theme sounds like a short loop, though I still do like the arcade version, this one has more to it, and it's just great.
I used to play this masterpiece game every weekend of my childhood without stopping. I didn't have a memory card and I had to start the game from 0 every time until I won all the characters to play with Kazuya or Devil. This game will be forever in my heart and the entire suite of PlayStation 1 games. Incredible times.
On every video about character select, they always say "the best character select", I didnt play this game but this soundtrack is amazing eventhought T5 has the best character select XDDDDD
My brother and me used to play a lot of virtual fighter 1, tekken was a bit late when we were able to affort a play station 1 but we never really got a tekken 2 philysical copy, it wasnt until tekken 4 when we really play a lot of tekken for hours, he hworan ( sry i cant pronounce him correctly) and me xioyu, got good memories playing video games with my brother.
This makes me think of a Tekken School Sitcom Heihachi: The Gym Teacher Lee: The Computer Teacher Kazuya: The Bully Jun: The Kind Kid I’ll update this later
Luke bruh tekken 7 isn’t that disappointing lol but I think tekken 3 had something really going and 4 couldve been fantastic but character list is what makes me not like it as much
Eu tinha 8 anos de idade quando passei ouvir essa trilha sonora maravilhosa. Tekken 2 foi o primeiro que eu joguei. Deixava o tempo acabar só por causa dessa trilha sonora de seleção de personagens. 🎵🎶
This ost will always be so good. It's almost like the track is unintentionly telling you "No matter what character you pick, you'll still have a blast!".

@@nosherkhan3232 I have found there is a mod for PC version to achieve the same feature. For some reason it was cut but the codes still there its just disjointed. Someone reassambled it as a mod
I used to go back and forth between 2 and 3. Love them both. Tekken 2 always had that early mid 90s ish TRUE 90s vibe. Tekken 3 of course changes the series, but tekken 2 and tekken 4 are unique in that the both upgraded the game series and the installment after (3 and 5) refined and perfected the features and game play of its immediate predecessor.

Never played tekken 2 only 3 4(?) and 5 but it somehow sounds nostalgic to me
Takes me back to the 7th grade!!!

You actually looped it better than the actual game itself...nicely done!
I had to find my copy to see how the sequence went. Funny that it faded and went back to start, so I just went with something new.

What's the first thing I did in Tekken 8? Set this as the character select music, obviously.
It was a choice between this and Tekken 3. I went with Tekken 3 for nostalgia as that was a time I used to work at the Chessington World of Adventures theme park and after work we used to have Tekken 3 battles with the guys from work back in 1998. Also the arcade machine was really really loud!
Ahhh... Sounds like saturday morning in the mid 90s
It just sounds like the embodiment of playstation. If you get what I mean... It was a new era hearing music like this.
And It was the Last Era we Heard such great music.
True , but what Musicians like Yuzo Koshiro did with their limitations , made their talent shine even more. Playstation , there was no limitations. It was CD music.
and 90s
Kid next to arcade machine: come on make your damn mind its been 15 minutes!
Uhh Uhh... I’ll pick hehachi.
*instantly picks Jun*
we used to have those types
now everything is judgmental
I pick everyone because i main everyone
No joke.
*Quickly selects Kazuya(Or Armor King)*
I can't believe they give you 20 seconds to listen to this in the game...
Set it to quick select in the options, and it removes the timer.
@@DrEarthwormRobotnik thanks for the tip.
go to vs mode and you can hear it all day lol.
KING!.... Round #1... fight~!
Like seriously Namco was in the studio like Sega was back then 🤯😤🎵
My man your a og for mentioning sega as well i love sega gen soundtracks.
I'm a fan of the Tekken series but of them all I must say Tekken 2 is my favorite because of the music. Great scores like this one just make it an overall masterpiece
@home9dog2blue It's actually chill. T3 and T5 are more upbeat than T2 intro.
@home9dog2blue Tekken 2 Intro is so great. This Pianos giving Me chills. Or do you mean this Hidden Heihachi Intro?
My brotha
My thoughts exactly!
The best character select theme of all time
DAMN RIGHT!!!!

Third strike and MVC2 have something to say but its damn close
Cool boarders
Great memories of 1996 - This game helped me stay awake while on CQ duty in the US Army -
Wow, 1996 was a great year for the military. I was a Army brat and I played this everyday waiting to have the chance to beat my dad when he returned from deployment
Alguém em 2024 ouvindo essa trilha sonora maravilhosa que marcou a infãncia de muitas pessoas no PS1 ? 🎵🎶

Nice loop for awesome music of my youth. I remember letting the time run out on this screen just to listen to this.

IMO, Tekken 2 had the best soundtrack out of all the games!
I've been saying that for years. I agree
The best Tekken character select theme
Ive been looking for a loop of this theme for the past 10 years
I prefer this over the arcade version, the arcade version is ok, but this version is more clear, and has more to it, the arcade version theme sounds like a short loop, though I still do like the arcade version, this one has more to it, and it's just great.
This song and _TTT1’s_ PS2 character select are my favorite character select themes in the series.

Classic 90s character select theme. This could be a club mix lol
90's deep house music ❤️
This bring back memories of good time with my friend. This is my second favorite tekken after 4...... Good times
On every video about character select, they always say "the best character select", I didnt play this game but this soundtrack is amazing eventhought T5 has the best character select XDDDDD
I feel like this should have been in Smash
I can see it
This game was released in europe for playstation in late 1996. Like 26 years ago! I played this late 90s as a kid.
It's been 18 years and I still remember how this music sounds like :)
Perfect loop, now that's skills! Nicely done.
old days as kid remeber when i was school and did all my work fast as hell and was like i want to Come home and play tekken 2 all weakend
Evert Gueblia Me too lol
Me too mate
Love the mid 90s vibe
ARE YOU READY
Yes sir
Bought ps plus premium and downloaded Tekken 2 and the main character theme is amazing
Still a damn good game after 20 years.
Dr. Earthworm Robotnik it’s only thing that makes me go wtf is that low grav jump XD
This goes hard asf
Man this can.make.me cry, such a great game.... now today it's all about air juggles in the new tekken's 🤢😥
1.5x speed = Drum and Bass
THANK YOU
How I wanna just spend one more day in the summer of '96 playing Tekken 2, Crash and Croc

This is such a great workout song!
Is There Anyone Between The Ages of 20 to 50 Making A UA-cam Channel About The Future of Namco Games?
Tekken 1 was a that weird tech demo, proof of concept. Tekken 2 was when shit got real.
Perfect loop!
i love playing this game as a kid best times in my life
Tell me this track isn't lit!
I have been looking EVERYWHERE for an extended version of this song! Thank you! 😆👍
5:37 ahhh shit this part made me have 2009 vibes
Remember when it was most upvoted comment of
"I'm going -something- a baby,
I will shoot a babeyy"?
We still have this game on my dad's ps1. We still play it from time to time, this song ALWAYS sticked out to me, so glad I found it
i sill love this game i would always play this at an arcade and on PS1

0:47 everyone comes for this!!!
The Star Man theme from Mario would go great with this
This loop is smooth.
This makes me think of a Tekken School Sitcom
Heihachi: The Gym Teacher
Lee: The Computer Teacher
Kazuya: The Bully
Jun: The Kind Kid
I’ll update this later
Update that shit
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I always liked this character select theme out of all the Tekkens... I wonder how Tekken 7's will sound.
Jon-Mark W hey if you buy tekken 7 for PS4 you can previous soundtracks from past tekken game
the lost dragon 21 you mean Tekken 7 the jukebox mode right? I own Tekken 7 now. When I wrote this I didn't have it yet.

Back when Seichi Ichii still was the director of Tekken, and Kazuya was good.
Back when Tekken was Tekken.
Hear hear. Tekken 7 is my number 1 most disappointing game of all time.
Luke bruh tekken 7 isn’t that disappointing lol but I think tekken 3 had something really going and 4 couldve been fantastic but character list is what makes me not like it as much
Luke tekken 7 is fine except the dumbass guest characters

3 didn't either. ):
