    This was recorded using a real first generation Game Boy (mine). Most other versions on UA-cam have inaccurate audio because they were recorded with a poor quality emulator. Enjoy! *EDIT:* Before you quote lines from some Dilbert meme or from Ariston, be aware that this has already been done a hundred times.

      Yeah, you're absolutely right. But it's still kinda funny to think about Robocop as an emo JRPG hero, maybe taking an angsty drag on a cigarette, as opposed to simply a regular man dealing with losing his identity, becoming a literal object and coping with his continued existence while still believing in his mission.

    This takes me back to summer 1991, my friend Johnny loaned me this game to take with me up to my grandparents' cottage on Georgian Bay. My dad was coming up on Friday evening on the GO Train so we had to pick him at the temporary Barrie, ON station. This meant a lot of time in the car and waiting, and this game kept me busy. After finishing a game I ended up back on the title screen and actually stopped to listen to this tune properly for the first time.

      Most likely because they weren't allowed. The stupid thing with these licenced games was that they usually didn't have permission to use most or all music from the movie. Which was probably a good thing in the long run, since we're able to enjoy their unique soundtracks today without eternal copyright problems.
      This composer used a few bars of the Robocop theme in his Level 1 music though.
      On a similar note, the first version of Robocop for Gameboy had voice samples saying "Robocop" and "Thank you for your cooperation" between levels, but those samples were removed in later prints of the game. I'm guessing due to a copyright/licence issue.
