What an interesting nomination. I say this because I dont think Raetsel_Lapin knows my taste very well (though I could be wrong?), but they picked two things I really love: the Street Fighter II soundtrack and the Game Boy soundchip. Is that a coincidence? Its just a random thing to nominate otherwise.

Anyway, the big problem I had with this set was, well, the Game Boy soundchip. Most of the sounds are cluttered with over-crunchiness. The ones I like are mostly because of the original versions. Sadly, the set doesnt really exploit the coolness of the Game Boy. I love the original soundtrack so Im likely to enjoy any variant on it though.

Favorite song: Blanka Theme. Like the rest of this set, this arrangement sounds like mosquitoes playing the accordion. But it sounds like the original, so I like it. >_> What?
