PSI Rockin’ Ringtone

December 18th, 2011 | Audio Stuff, EarthBound | 34 Comments

Keno sent this in the other day: I was playing EarthBound yesterday and I thought it’d be cool to have an EB-related ringtone.

Maybe you could share it with others here on EBCentral; I’d hate to be the only person with such a cool ringtone. (The sou...Read More »

Juanito says: You have to listen to this! It’s an excellent, polished jazz rendition of the EarthBound theme and Fourside. It was made by a professional jazz musician and it shows. It’s leagues above the usual fan-made stuff. It’s from the album Retro Remix Revue. Despite its excellence, it’s incredibly obscure. So here you go: Indeed, it’s some very excellent stuff!...Read More »

For a long time now people have been telling me that various stuff from Pokemon seems very MOTHER-ish and especially MOTHER 3-ish. Here’s a song that especially gets cited: I can hear similarities, but are they really on purpose? I haven’t played any Pokemon games since Red/Blue (get off my lawn ya kids there’s only 151 pokemon as far as i’m concerned *shakes double canes*...Read More »
