Duno. Ace Attorney Investigations 2 - Pursuit ~ Wanting to Find the Truth
i could not listen to maniac mansion for long, i apologize. something with that 8-bit just doesn't sound right to me

Truno. The Lawnmower Man - Main Theme
pretty nice song, the other one has good instrumentation too but the lyrics, what the hell are those lyrics

Quadruno. Pokémon Super Mystery Dungeon - Foreboding Forest
celeste's is a great song, but this song is better at doing its own thing than celeste's is. it's just so mysterious, reminds me of an ancient royal castle kind of
Enthusia Professional Racing - AWAKENING ~ Nürburgring Suite
Last two songs are cool, but this one is more upbeat and is something (and tfw > 10-minute track)

Ace Attorney Investigations 2 - Pursuit ~ Wanting to Find the Truth
I like the other song too because nostalgia, but this one can't be not voted lmao. Epic track.

The Lawnmower Man - Main Theme
Pretty eerie at first but it builds up.

Pokémon Super Mystery Dungeon - Foreboding Forest
I like how foreboding this is (totally not a pun). Celeste is also great.

-IV-
Deltarune - Field of Hopes and Dreams

--------------

The Adventures of Batman & Robin - Dark Studio (Another Medium is one of the better Undertale tracks, but Batman is a jam and when the Genesis sounds good it sounds fantastic. Also lol @30-second loop)
ChainDive - Movin' On (Stage 1) (sorry I dont watch anime)
Sonic CD - Stardust Speedway (Present) [JP/EU] (turn it up n GET DOWN)
Deltarune - Field of Hopes and Dreams (honestly I should probably vote the Bloodborne track since it's probably the better composed piece, but of these two I would most likely listen to Deltarune again (and the Deltarune track is pretty good too))


Voting periods should be the proper 48 hours from here on out.
Undertale - Another Medium

Chain Dive - Stage 1

Ys VI: The Ark of Napishtim - Release of the Far West Ocean

Deltarune - Field of Hopes and Dreams
daves theme lost and i am not hapyp about it

The Adventures of Batman & Robin - Dark Studio
ChainDive - Movin' On (Stage 1) (both are bad)
Sonic CD - Stardust Speedway (Present) [JP/EU]
Deltarune - Field of Hopes and Dreams (both are disappointing)

Deltarune - Field of Hopes and Dreams

Undertale - Another Medium
(another three-way battle with all great songs, sad)

ChainDive - Movin' On (Stage 1)
(ChainDive wins by default; VGM with lyrics is hard to get right IMO, VS Greatwyrm just doesn't do it)

Sonic CD - Stardust Speedway (Present) [JP/EU]
(Ys is bad; sorry Kirby, you can't compete against Sonic CD)

Bloodborne The Old Hunters - Ludwig The Holy Blade
(spoopy, I'm voting this over undertale 2 with full knowledge that it's likely going to lose. it's great, but previous tournies have shown that smwc just doesn't care much for orchestral themes)
The Adventures of Batman & Robin - Dark Studio
(this kinda bangs tbh)

ChainDive - Movin' On (Stage 1)
(I almost went with the weeb shit, I am weak)

Ys VI: The Ark of Napishtim - Release of the Far West Ocean
(going with the weeb shit, fuck yeah)

Deltarune - Field of Hopes and Dreams
(Noivern is correct about people not caring much for orchestral themes)



dark studio (B A N G E R)
stage 1 (is there a higher quality upload anywhere? other one was gross tho)
stardust speedway (B A N G E R also the only one of these with good instrumentation)
ludwig the holy blade (i picked the song in a style i like less because its much better executed... toby fox needs to start working with somebody who can produce his compositions better tbh)

Undertale - Another Medium
(batman was pretty unique though)

ChainDive - Movin' On (Stage 1)
(guess i'll have to destroy anime in smwc once again)

Sonic CD - Stardust Speedway (Present) [JP/EU]

Deltarune - Field of Hopes and Dreams

5 STAR POINTS!

1. Nintendo World Cup- I like this one because it sounds kind of like Double Dragon. I don't know the other two.

2. ChainDive - Movin' On (Stage 1)
This was hard because there were only two so I didn't know what to do.

3. Ys VI: The Ark of Napishtim - Release of the Far West Ocean
I don't know this one, but it sounded really realistic.

4. Bloodborne The Old Hunters - Ludwig The Holy Blade- I don't know, but this game seemed really scary. I don't understand why Noivern says people don't like it if it sounds like an orchestra. I think that's really good and realistic.
Undertale - Another Medium

ChainDive - Movin' On (Stage 1)

Sonic CD - Stardust Speedway (Present) [JP/EU]

Deltarune - Field of Hopes and Dreams
I. Undertale - Another Medium
Easy winner here to be honest. Match Theme 1 sounds like the most generic Megaman level theme ever and regarding Dark Studio, I don't really like the sound of the Genesis in general, so yeah.

II. Dragalia Lost - VS Greatwyrm
Both are good actually but I think this one is kicking a little more than Movin' On.

III. Sonic CD - Stardust Speedway (Present) [JP/EU]
The only good sounding GBA game is Mother 3 you can NOT change my mind on this. Also Release of the Far West Ocean just sounds bad in my opinion lol

IV. Deltarune - Field of Hopes and Dreams
Get your stupid menacing orchestra out of here. (It's boring)

1: Undertale - Another Medium
As much as I want to like Jesper Kyd's Mega Drive songs, they just end up being way too long and boring and just not fun to listen to, and the other one is... alright, I suppose; not the best the NES can do tho (where tf is Shatterhand btw)

2: ChainDive: Movin' On (Stage 1)
Pretty cool techno jam here; not my favorite, and I feel like it would be pretty easily beaten by another song later on, but on the other hand, that weeb shit ass song is not okay to listen to at all lmao

3: Sonic CD: Stardust Speedway (Present) [JP/EU]
This one and the Ys song are pretty close together in terms of jam quality, but in the end, you just can't go wrong with Naofumi Hataya and his funky jams (second only to Hideki Naganuma IMO); I'd probably have voted for Kirby if Dark Mind's second form theme was the one which was nominated tho, but otherwise... nope

Undertale - Another Medium
(Sounds outer-spacy and cosmic, but with good rhythm.)

ChainDive - Movin' On (Stage 1)
(Honestly, this one felt more interesting to listen to than the Dragalia song.)

Ys VI: The Ark of Napishtim - Release of the Far West Ocean
(Aw yeah. This is a beauty.)

Bloodborne - Ludwig, the Holy Blade
(The professional quality kinda got to me.)

Ys VI: The Ark of Napishtim - Release of the Far West Ocean

Deltarune - Field of Hopes and Dreams

songs were kinda eh this round. i thought the ys track was just a shitty midi of a stratovarius song at first but then i remembered i vibe with that kinda shit hard. i dont have anything to say about any of the others.
The Adventures of Batman & Robin - Dark Studio

ChainDive - Movin' On (Stage 1)

Ys VI: The Ark of Napishtim - Release of the Far West Ocean

Deltarune - Field of Hopes and Dreams

i had this window open since last night it totally counts
The Adventures of Batman & Robin - Dark Studio - Another Medium had the stronger first impression, but Dark Studio eventually won me over. Bonus points for doing so on the Genesis soundfront, which can go very garbage very fast.

ChainDive - Movin' On (Stage 1) - It's okay, but it's in considering its opponent doesn't click with me at all. Shrug.

Sonic CD - Stardust Speedway (Present) [JP/EU] - The Sonic CD soundtrack is often praised, and surprise surprise, there's a good reason for that.

Bloodborne - Ludwig, the Holy Blade - I had zero delusions of ol' Ludwig ever surviving Round 1, especially versus Toby Fox Video Game - I just wanted to share a sliver of a thing I like. Thanks for giving it a listen!
