10 most memorable SNES title songs

10. E.V.O. Search for Eden (Enix, 1993)


A serene, string-laden song perfectly suited for a game about the vicissitudes of Mother Nature.



9. NFL QB Club 96 (Acclaim, 1995)


When you think of music in SNES football games, you usually think of shoddy production with muffled instrumentation. That wasn't the case here.



8. The Lost Vikings (Interplay, 1993)


Very nice instrumentation and voice samples. This was one of those multi-platform games that truly took advantage of the Super Nintendo's audio capabilities and thus sounded exponentially better than the Genesis version.

10 most memorable SNES attract sequences

10. Kirby Super Star (Nintendo, 1995)

This is a quick and pointless little 18 second blip which dazzles you with Mode 7 effects and an incredibly catchy jingle. It caught my attention at the time, and I still enjoy watching the silly thing today.
