@@AndrewThoesen Nintendo are suck monkeys.
I'm a waiter in a Chinese restaurant and this video is one of my go-to playlists. Older people like how relaxing it is, younger kids seem to think it's cool too. But I love it when someone my age recognizes one of the songs and we get to talk about how much these games meant to us as kids, and how they've still left impressions on our adult psyches. I mean Super Mario RPG taught me to read, this stuff is close to my heart. Thanks for bringing people a little bit closer!
Wow that is really cool, thank you for sharing
That is pretty incredible I love it thank you
Shayn Davis 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
That sounds awesome
I played music of Final Fantasy 6 in my restaurant a few times, people loved it. My boss loved Cyan's theme.
Old school video game music reminds all of us of an important fact about art: Limitation can sometimes be of great benefit to art. Less can truly be more.
Im glad the indie scene still keeps that idea alive. Most triple-A titles nowadays just seem to make the download size as large as possible just because they can. Theres nothing wrong with grand presentation, but sometimes I want the gameplay to be the emphasis
Really well said.
The enemy of art is the absence of limitations- Orson Welles
@@miketurns202 very profound
Do the best with what you got or what you got already can do the best?
The sounds of a SNES makes me homesick for a place beyond time, one deep inside a hidden dream. Untouchable but always around you.
if we could only go back my friend, a time when all was right in the world
Nostalgia, innit..
Great post
man it aint hidden don't maKE it a spoKEN word riddLE LET the others LIIVE that new MILLENIUM phonyness I'm ALWAYS there

@@akbey3941 demystifying something so simple
SNES drunk...
I am currently drinking a cold brew and grinding away studying for a final.
In the last few years, I have had some unfortunate adverse events with multiple family members/friends and my own health. It was to the point where I had to put my career and family to the side.... completely step away.
The only person who has helped me through all this is my son. This is where you come in... We play these old games, watch your videos, and put this compilation as I study like I am right now while I type this. He hears the familiarity from the old games we play together and calls them out.
It brings a smile to my face. It is always the little things in life. Thank you for this.
🙌 bless you and your son
My god this takes me back to summer vacations in the 90's, when I had all the free time in the world and no job. The feels.
If they invent a time machine, I don't want to go back to anywhere except the 90's...forever
Yea
Adam Smith 1994. I was 14. I got enough money delivering newspapers I convinced my father I needed a scooter motorcycle to deliver papers more effectively. I had my first serious little girlfriend, my skateboarding gang of friends and I thought I ruled the world.
you dont fully realize the beauty of being a kid in the 90s until you get to your 30s. :(
@@cactaceous Thats exactly how I bought mine when it was released. got Christmas bonuses and from the customers and bought one while still in high school. lol

@@CheapJabroni "Diving Theme" beginning is a copy from Pink FLoyd's "Signs of life".
The Waterworld map theme, tho!
aniran goncalves wow i never knew water world was also on snes, i always tout it was only on virtual boy, likely it’s not.
That waterworld music was ahead of it’s time 🔥🔥🔥
That first track slaps
Haven't heard that Sim City theme in almost 30 years and it still hit me, remembering big bro build his cities, smiling as he got very creative. RIP.
enough of this shit!
My brother once built this impressive city so naturally being the little brother I am I unleashed Godzilla and then deleted it. I still apologize for it when I see him 30 years later.
F
Much love! For real.
RIP.
Love how the art on the boxes was always so nice and realistic, while we played with very basic graphics and our imagination did the rest
Nowadays, games are hyperrealistic, whereas the simple charm and colorful graphics of _Super Mario World_ have stood the test of time.
Ive never been interested in collectors items, but I wish I would’ve saved all the NES and SNES boxes I had.
You obviously weren't around 10 years before the games in this video lol. When the box art was just as awesome but the games were just a few pixels.
@@cdfactory The thing is that everything that tries to be realistic sets up it's own failure. In 10 years or so the game looks laughable
There is also more room for creative art design and color when your aesthetic isn't just "realism."
You started this off very strong with the waterworld music.
Another plus is that it's a song I never heard before, yet it was so damn good. I actually expected him to start off with a Chrono Trigger or Donkey Kong Country track since both games have tons of soothing songs.
Ayyyyy Jigga its Edgar lol
Colonel Angus lmao what up Edgar! 🤘🏼
makes me think of Drexciya
I love when obscure or just plain bad games have great soundtracks, because it takes me a while to find them from never playing the game and such, and it's always a surprise when I find a gem.
4 Years Later & This Playlist Is Still 🔥🔥🔥
this gives me a ride between melancholy, sadness, joy and serenity
Said ride is called nostalgia.
@@pedinhuh16 indeed
great comment!
Yes!
spot on prof. i had to skip some songs because it may trigger my depressions but most of them brought back the memories of my happy childhood and root that kept me on my feet and bringing together the spirit to live

@@drewhudd3288 seems fishy
who's watching this in 1995
SNESDrunk, you are a sage & a scholar & I love you.
@Captain Kirk look at the content here as a whole. He's continuing the legacy of a dead console. He's not posting full albums. He's showing the talent on these systems. I'm sure we didn't think of the music when we played but he did and is encouraging us to look at through a new perspective.
Captain Kirk You are pathetic
@Captain Kirk where does he say "donate for more music " i must've missed that part. is it under the section where he credits the original games ?? hm
SNESDrunk, you are a nerd & a dork & I love you
“Aquatic Ambiance” from Donkey Kong has stuck with me since the first time I heard it. Used to play that game with my grandparents.
Ditto man. For me Donkey Kongs soundtracks were the best I ever heard in a game.
That theme brings me back to my childhood and makes me feel the same it did all those years back. I used to play the level over again just for the music.
They don't make them like that anymore.
I'm not the only one who just sat there at the beginning of the level just to listen to the music, am I?
Amazed by it 2!
Wow I thought I was the only one who was obsessed with the underwater theme in DK Country!! I would legit keep going back to that level just to hear the relaxing feel good music! It's so calming and peaceful.. Man that REALLY is a huge staple from my childhood. I played the shit out of DKC and NBA Live 95 all day and night until Mom caught me at 2am when I was supposed to be sleeping for school.. Soooo much missed and half assed homework because I wanted to play SNES as much as I could LOL
@@n15ahmet me too!!!!
Donkey Kong Country 2, "Stickerbrush Symphony" gives me chills everytime, such great song!!
It's my favorite on here. No reason for it to go so hard like 3 minutes in, such a dope composition
Same!
The SNES had arguably the best music of any cartridge based console. That Sony sound chip was godly.
yes, Killer Instinct, DK Country 1 & 2....Rareware also on the N64 with DK64, 007 and Perfect Dark. Perfect Dark N64 had incredible music
I agree. I will play games just for the music
@@generfeld
Do not forget Secret of Evermore.
1995 was easily one of the best years of my life.
Some of the greatest games of all time made around then. On my all-time favourite console to boot 👍
@@TG-kt9vg
SNES hands down is my favourite of all time
I graduated high school that year and couldn't agree more.
fuckin boomers !
It was the first year of my life
This music feels like a warm hug from the past.
*It is… HUG*
😏😏
A link to the past...
so you're old..... shit, me2 :D but the love is real
Indeed friend.
bro simcity village is the pinnacle of comfort, and home sweet home, really love it.
My childhood was not always easy but I escaped reality with the help of some of these games. They helped so much. :)
I can say the Sony SPC700 sound controller chip is one of the thing that influence who I am. It has my favorite ever sound signature. I've never heard another console system that deliver the same warm timbre combined with it's level of clarity. It creates a very warm bittersweet and nostalgic sound, but with a lot of body and clarity. I wouldn't be as much of a music lover today if I didn't hear the music coming from this sound chip as a kid, it effectively made me a lover of video games and music. None of the game consoles I played earlier or afterward have the same sound.
Sure, I'd say it's got great warmth, but the gaussian filter + not-so-perfect frequency (32KHz) definitely drops the clarity, yet for some games the former is absolutely necessary and even the clearer, less muddy sounding sinc filter that emulators support would cause a downgrade with some of these more atmospheric ones.
I don't know the technicalities of it, but to my ears depending on the games and soundtrack it does have good clarity. The SNESAPU plugin for foobar2000 have various options to play with, so I can increase the sample rate. I converted the SPC files to FLAC and listened to them on my LG with the quadDAC.
@@someguy43210 True, the SNESAPU plugin's able to do a higher sample rate. Pretty sure that one's native too unlike actual emulators which resample it.
I do enjoy the crisp, deep resonance the MSX2 and the PC-Engine were able to produce. Listen to some of Snatcher or Metal Gear 2 Solid Snake. Very unique and powerful sound with depth that will pierce into your body and resonate. Like nothing I've heard today tbh.
@@Krystalmyth MG2:SS doesn't use the MSX sound hardware at all. It uses a custom audio chip located inside the cartridge :)
In fact, there were a lot of sound expansions for the MSX2 like the later MSXMUSIC spec which added FM synthesis like the Genesis. Final Fantasy is a great example of that, though it also supports PSG music. Both ways are far better than the original NES soundtrack besides some swapped around tracks.
Relaxing Super Nintendo Music is something I didn't know I needed. Thank you.
Not only it brings relaxation but nostalgia
The SNES music capabilities was astounding when you look back. Some of the mario themes are so uplifting and relaxing. Those bongos for when you were on Yoshi where like some sick breakbeat. Koji kondo was a genuine genius
You are right! The sound chip in the SNES was a game changer. Ken Kutaragi did an amazing job with it.
I definitely prefer it to the alternatives that were out there at the time.
Is*
The Intro of Secret of Mana gives me Chills every time
I miss that game and that time in my life
Maybe visions of mana can live up to that time. The moment they showed a person glad in some pink garb in a vibrante green field by square enix I said "Mana" at the 2023 game awards! Called it out. Sick if it had up to 4 player online co op option or something.@@Boom-ou1vb
"Aquatic Ambience" is one of the best videogame music ever made.
Yes it is. Amazing music. Check out super Castlevania snes cuts as well. Great music.
David Wise cracked out hit after hit for Rare and Nintendo. He's a real genius.
@@Grizzlox 6 hits of acid on the beach in the 90s was magical
Amazing song! The crazy thing is that its still not ahead of stickerbush symphony tho.
No doubt.
Also glad you didn't just go for the obvious, some really great stuff I've never heard before!
@@supremevictory4310 I've heard of almost all of these games but have only actually heard
@@DeskoDev talking about the music from the games...not just the tittle of the games.never played most of them long enough to hear most these songs.
No kidding. Who would have thought Tetris for having even 1 solid track in it 😲
People vastly underestimate how talented the musicians are that write these songs, love this thank you so much. Also Jurassic Park was one of the hardest games I’ve ever played
The hardest part of beating that Jurassic Park game (besides figuring out where to go, what to do and what order to do it in) was the fact that you couldn't save and had to beat the game in one sitting, lol. I remember leaving my SNES on for days trying to beat it. I only managed to beat it once I got the Internet and could look up a walkthrough. I remember the first person indoor section would also creep me out as a kid, the spooky ambient music, waiting for a raptor to growl and pounce on you outta nowhere.
@@DeathBringer769 I’m months late to reply on this but yes the first person sections genuinely terrified me as a kid! I remember it being difficult to see where you were going and the raptors were ruthless
I forgot how hard that damn game was. Thanks for reminding me
It's so astonishing that all these old school music from the 90' on a simple 16-bit console still holds up today. It's epic, it's calming, and sometimes just beautifully whimsical to listen, even on our 2020's advanced devices. Long lives the SNES.
Man we grew up in the best time!
This is the best music compilation on UA-cam. Ever.
Yup. SNESdrunk you've done the world a great service in compiling this...
no lie, this mix made me tear up. i miss bein a kid. thanks for the memories snes drunk
Me to time went by so quick...
Don't make me start again I hate this it's an under the belt hit so much nostalgia is crime.
@Evolved Primate Yo that's crazy dawg, you must be hella fun at parties
🤣
And then, all there was, were memories of good times.
Donkey Kong Country soundtrack is the best soundtrack hands down. Tears going down my face right now. The best years of my life 😢
You have great taste.
truth
That is so sad.
When that Waterworld map theme starts up - 😎
Smooth as the water.
That whole soundtrack is not only better than the game it's in, but the movie that game's based on. Not that that would be hard with Waterworld, one of the largest cinematic flops of all time, but the Waterworld SNES soundtrack is amazing.
Waterworld - Map is just so damn amazing, I can't stop listening
Imagine one of the worst games having this soundtrack.. I grew up pausing DKC just to listen to the music.. whoever made that waterworld tune is amazing!!!
Still, great movie... bad BAAD BAAAAAD game
That ten hour loop has helped me get through some stuff man
Same!
@@djphildeez6357 Well, Silver Surfer video game and even Pictenary on the NES has some of the best gaming music....yet the games suck. Music, Awesome. Gameplay. God can't even save it.
amazing song it is
I never played Waterworld, but that Map theme is beautiful!
Lookup waterworld snes diving
Agreed! I've never played Waterworld either but the theme sounds a lot like Aquatic Ambience from DK Country. Just Beautiful.
You guys never played waterworld because it was exclusive to Europe
Thank god it's back online !
6:21 brings a tear to my because with this video game was the only time my older brother would be like a normal teen, because during the 1990s he was a gang member during those times in California was dangerous to be a teen, so when we would go to werehouse to rent this game we would go home and play it and be normal kids then after he would leave with his homies and i would stay home and kept playing this game wondering if he will make it home that night and not get murdered by rival gangsters.. he made it he lives a normal life has kids in early adult ages and hes in his mid 40s ..thought i share that story the song reminded me of all that.
Love SNES sounds, it was the last console to have it's own unique chip personality before the 32 Bits all went full CD audio and everything sounds the same ever since.
Those games still use a lot of their own synths actually. If you look on the internet you can find soundfonts for gamecube and ps2 games
Most PS1 games were synth music. It sounds real because they use high quality clips of instruments. Even the acoustic guitar in Chrono Cross's OST was synth, and faked the noise of a hand sliding up and down the fretboard!
@@kenmckay5530
Interesting 👍
Personally I prefer the punchier sound of the Sega Genesis/Megadrive's sound chip, but I do admit that the SNES pulls off calming orchestral stuff pretty well.
@@stonethemason12 exactly, gamecube, n64 all could make unique music from their soundchip. And I think the 32x allowed for enhanced soundchip sound from the mega drive also
For about 17 years I have been wanting to know a game I used to play on Snes but could never find it until now,. As soon as the song came I recognised it, Equinox! Thank you so much
Equinox was a strange game when I was a kid, I rented it once and had no idea what was going on, except for the fact that the music was amazing!
The power of the SNES 😎
Man I've never actually played Equinox but damn do I love that track 😲
I'd it a good game
I think the music is by Tim & Geoff Follin!
I'm honestly surprised by how chill a song is from a game called "Tetris: Attack"
same
Overworld from Equinox is incredible, random thought, reminds me of Low era Bowie lol, thanks for the playlist, love them!
I strongly suggest to listen to the rest! It's very impressive for what it's working with, most of the soundtrack was made on 4 channels only! Tim and Geoff Follin are gods.
The donkey Kong brings tears to my eyes. Such a special time as a child then. So magical
I, a 37 year old woman, played it through the other day because of this playlist. One of the best video game ambiance experiences to be had.
I can hear the poiang poiang poiang from the swordfish throughout
I, too, enjoy The Donkey Kong.
@@sadrevolution bad ass that you can appreciate how great they are
x2
Oh man, that Sim City, Super Metroid and Chrono Trigger music took me WAY back! Actually all of it did! Music sure has a way of reminding one of time and place. Thank you for sharing!
Just something about those 16 bit sounds...man oh man...
Amazing stuff 👍
That Sim City track surprised me. Didn't think it'd have such soothing music.
i wanna cry. I thought it was gone forver after youtube took it down. this is my comfort video. thank you
Download it!
Over 30 years have passed and it still blows my mind how great SNES music was. What composers were able to do with the sound chip is amazing.
The fact that these aren't just "samples" of each song, makes it into such a great compilation.
Recommended for anything in life that requires a bit of background music.
Thanks for making this. I really enjoyed eating mac and cheese alone and listening.
Wow. This is a three hour long video. You really took your time with that mac and cheese :)
Hey, buddy. I eat my Mac alone also. Next time, add a little bit of Buffalo sauce to it when you're mixing the powder, then pour the mac into a bowl half filled with Jalapeno Cheddar Cheetos. Sooooo tasty!
Isn't that just straight up 90s 👍
What music to listen to stop the diabeetees ?
@@EnCrypticon23x Damn, that sounds delish! 😋
That Waterworld track is fire...
Man, the link to the past end credits nearly brought me to tears. Reminds me of when my mom best the game for the first time way way back in the 90's. Reminds me of what was and what will be in the future. Thank you so much for making this, I'm writing my own story right now as i listen to this, my primary influences being link to the past and soul blazer, two of the greatest snes games ever created. Life is good if you wish it so, never give up, fight the good fight, whatever that make be for you.
Life IS good if you wish it so!!
Sometimes I wish we could just live in the 80's again. No cell phones, no internet. Just good times. Arcades were a hit!
SNES didn’t come out in the 80’s.
@@neoneherefrom5836 I know, it just reminded me of the good old days.
dude just appreciate the internet for finding this music
@@neoneherefrom5836 '80s*
You’re absolutely right though, bro.
Being “in the moment” is getting harder and harder to do with every new piece of blazing fast technology with which we can multitask.
It blows my mind that content creators are now making videos less than a minute long to accommodate dwindling attention spans.
That Waterworld song is so amazing. Its definitely makes me feel some kinda way...great way to set it off right!!
I agree. Never played the game, but I was hooked after 5 sek. Perfect start to cath attention.
The game is pretty awful though.
@@danielkruger1173
The game is made by ocean or something, which is a crap video game making company. At least the song is good.
I’ve listened to this playlist half a dozen times now, and it always evokes a sense of nostalgia for this era of gaming. I’m glad to say I got to experience it back then, and can have those memories brought back by the music herein.
Sim City brought me back to a time I had long forgotten.
Favoriting this for when I can’t sleep. You’re a god, SNESdrunk.
Same
Absolutely YES!!!!!
Yep
I remember trying to record "Good Night, See You Soon" from the mono speaker on our old tube TV...with a built-in mic on a cassette deck. Thanks for this.
Haha I did that with a lot of video game music... When my dad got a CD recorder for his component stereo system I put it all on CD, then onto my computer... Until I found out MP3s could be found online
Just wanted to say that this video means a lot to me. Have a huge soft spot for the SNES and the SNES sound chip especially, I've come back to this video countless times over the past couple years just to have something calming to listen to when I'm stressed out by work or school or something, and I'm sure I'll be coming back many more times in the future.
This Playlist works perfect for the Cannabis store I work at. Gets people in a calm mood while they choose their buds
I love that
All hail the glory of Donkey Kong Country which is on this list 4 times!
I'm pretty sure David Wise went batshit crazy while making that; never again has he repeated such a masterpiece.
It's like these people know they're making history and just have to match the quality of game with the quality of music. Humans like that give me inspiration!

best part of the 90s for me. along with climbing trees, building forts, sleepovers, the beach, legos, and night games at the park. goddamn I miss being a kid.
The 90s was a great time to grow up because of the entertainment balance that a lot of kids had: engaging in traditional recreation (outdoor activities) before coming home at night to play games.I think a lot of younger kids lack that balance; everything is so steeped in technology these days. Gaming technology was a mysterious, beautiful thing in the 90s.
@@jahoopyjaheepu497 not to mention arcades still existed back then. Fun today doesn't have shit on fun back then
My daughter and I have been going to sleep to this soundtrack for about 4 years now. Thank you for making it
So the SNES does have power?
The Overworld theme for Equinox is so beautiful that it distracted me completely from what I was doing just to research it. It immediately struck a chord. What a composition! I can't believe I missed games and game music like this all of these years. Composed by the insanely talented Follin bros. I would expect no less!
Agreed, one of my favourites on here too.
They cant say its just nostalgia why we enjoy old gaming music, I didnt play half these games and I am still loving the music tracks
Ive NEVER heard Waterworld, but IMMEDIATELY added it to some other playlists.
Snes is the ultimate console. Period. Fuck nostalgia bias.
I guess it's some kind of nostalgia because this kind of music reminds you of your childhood (if you played it when you were a kid of course).
Happy one year anniversary to this playlist! I work as a patient ambassador at my local hospital during this time of crisis, and I play this playlist almost every day as I wheel food around to patients. Most of the nurses recognize the music and the nostalgia it brings them.
Thank you for such a great playlist, it's been very helpful and relaxing at the job!
If most of the nurses recognize the music then they have great taste in music and games as well.
Happy two year anniversary! ;)
Two years now
Even 25 years later, SNES music still holds up today.
The time stamps are all wrong due to the removal of chrono trigger music
EDIT: Nevermind, they have been updated! Yay! Thank you, SNES drunk!
"Stickerbrush Symphony" always takes me to somewhere else.... it's magic
Totally. I love that song
stickerBUSH
I was having a really bad anxiety attack when I found this video. The calming music honestly saved me. Thank you so much for this.
Best of luck to you
This made me happy 😊
The power of SNES soundtracks 👍
Glad you found a place that can help you 😊
There's something magical in this soundscapes, eh. Hope you find a place of strength and safety within you!
It's probably nostalgia, but the SNES soundchip feels so magical.
Liar
Waterworld "Map" gives me goosebumps and sends me to dreamland every night. I have PTSD and terrible insomnia thank you so much, this has improved my day to day life beyond how I can actually express keep it up.
I realize im 3 months late to a comment on a 3 year old video consisting of 30 year old music but i think that speaks to the artists and snesdrunk's lasting creative influence
but uh, same, with the ptsd sleep help. This video has really brought a lot of peace to me. Thought i was the only one...
I'm so happy this video is back
back when things felt more valued and u were genuinley excited for games without any in depth look into them. simpler times and i fully mean that
Games aren't as interesting to us as adults anymore since we've already figured them out, so the magic of not knowing and venturing into the unknown we felt as children isn't there anymore. But don't worry, there's other things in life that offer the same feeling, so go out there and try new hobbies, and explore! :)
@@scrung Most gamers today are adults. Hence, more adult-oriented games are made.
for sure! I remember only looking at the cover and the description on the back of the game at blockbuster or my local grocery store to get a picture of how the game was going to be. I remember the excitement because I could only rent one every once in while.
@@vivarc2 Yep, I remember buying or renting games back in the day mostly just based on how cool the cover art or description on the back of the box seemed, lol. Simpler times ;)
viv arc2 the aesthetic
I think this is one of the best features the SNES came with, the music. Not being entirely digital, but still having that sensation of high quality and immersive feeling. That was awesome, and kind of a nostalgic mood maker.
dayum, this Equinox song is so good that it made me want to play the game again
That's Follin magic!
I'm writing my masters thesis and MISSED THIS SO MUCH THE LAST FEW DAYS
Pretty much expected this to be 3 hours of Stickerbrush Symphony and Mining Melancholy on repeat lol
and Forest Interlude & Cascade Capers.
Forest interlude always best in my eyes. DKC 2 has the jams
@@Ryopan28 no question about that. My strongest gaming memories as a kid are tied to playing DKC 2 while I was home from school trying to recover from pneumonia.
As much as we can appreciate these songs for so many magical childhood memories, we should all recognize the talent of the composers behind these timeless classics. They were able to do more with less! Simple and limited hardware, but no lack of imagination. God bless.
Somewhere in my past, typing "SNES Relaxing" in UA-cam's search window became habitual. Long evening working on the computer box? Better cue up 3 hours of relaxing SNES music. And every time I click the link now - EVERY TIME I CLICK - I think to myself "thank God they restored these videos."
Does my story have a point? Not really. But thank God they restored these videos. The world is better with them, than without them.
These songs bring me back to a place that no longer exists. A place of peace and prosperity. A place where love once prevailed. What a perfect time the 90s were.
Totally massaging clients of mine with this playlist now at my business. They won't believe its from the SNES! Also great selection on tracks :)
That says alot about a number of these SNES tracks doesn't it? That's crazy how 16 bit sound can actually be interpreted quality music. Especially in today's "impress me in 0.5 seconds or I'm walking away" society
@@richardmyers5732 I get so many mixed emotions about it when I tell my clients/patients it's from the Super Nintendo. It's hilarious!
I was half-expecting a 3 hour long "Sneeeeeeeeee[...]s Drunk" video
Please?
Sneeeesss drunk for 10 hours. Lol
I would watch
How high would that note be by the end?
Even the tunes I didn’t grow up with, still manage to evoke those mystical childhood memories.
The orchestral, non-verbal nature of Super NES music makes it a transcendent experience when on weed. You will fall into those synthesized brass instruments!
Man, every time I even see the words "Chrono" or "Trigger" all these memories come flooding back. That game got me through middle school.
You have no idea how much this relieves general work anxiety. Thanks for throwing this together!
Cheap time machine - this video and ten pints of beer. Cons - ending session in tears when remember my childhood.
"A Link to the Past" end credits still gives my chills. Great compilation!
The music was about the only thing that was relaxing about Waterworld on SNES.
LOL
6:30 Such calming music for such INFURIATINGLY DIFFICULT levels haha
@Big White Duck super ghouls and ghosts on the third hand... lol
did you listened the whole thing?
@Big White Duck Need video proof or it isnt true
@Big White Duck oh believe me, I already beat the game back when it was fairly new. It wasn't a breeze like you make it seem 🥴
@Big White Duck anything arcade is made for you to lose and dish out the quarters 🤣. I haven't tried the arcade version(s). Might have to download the MAME emulator and try it out.
The first thing I did was check for that Donkey Kong Country water stage music! Lol
Great line up.
It's being a while since i Last listened to this. Ive been under a lot of stress lately and listening to this while reading manga has helped a lot in feeling better. I love you snesdrunk
I had this play every time I went online on my laptop for this past week, and I finally finished it. It is currently midnight, and now I think I'm ready for the deepest sleep I will ever have. Thank you, SNESdrunk.
Hey, you okay bro?
@@J-M777 Huh I don't remember posting that comment, but yeah I'm okay!
This is fantastic! Would love to see more compilations like this but with a different theme each time. Upbeat/dark/sad etc. Love your content Drunk!
SAME!!!!!
10:00 That Tetris song had no business being THAT good…Absolutely beautiful
I've been listening to this playlist all day at work and I JUST realized it had music from The Illusion of Gaia which is the embodiment of my childhood.
My older brother and I played that game so much and even to this day, some twenty-something years later, it's still on our wishlist for the Nintendo Switch Online.
I never got to play it as a kid but I wished I would have, it definitely would have been a core part of my childhood. Even playing it as an adult for the first time I am totally enthralled by it's mysterious tone and love that it has those emotional moments you don't get in many other SNES games
I was just about to sit down and smoke a joint when I saw this pop up. Cheers mate, perfect timing.
exactly the same thing here
This is one of the most amazing things anybody has ever posted
@52:19
Some serious feels are hitting me.
I remember sitting in my grandparents basement playing NES/SNES on their big screen.
Enjoying life. Feeling safe and warm. Encased in dopeamine levels no drug could touch.
But then you grow up. No one's left. Life eats away at you. And all you can do is fire up these connections to childhood and get a small taste of the happiness you used to enjoy for hours on end.
Back when life didn't suck and you actully looked forward to tomorrow coming...
come on man
