i grew up with the master system version of olympic gold. i didn't find out until like over a decade later that there was also a mega drive version, and that menu title arrangement always sounded wrong to me. anyway here's my arrangement of the master system version more or less how it played out in my head
Another overlooked arcade classic, the three-player Super Off Road by Leland.
The story behind this license involves a chance meeting at a sushi bar. One day I hope to tell that story - had to cut this one from the book! #videogamehistory
@vga256 given the way capstone's SB/adlib music sounds in their other games, my expectations were never very high to begin with โ
@vga256 daaamn, roland support, they were getting ritzy with that one

I don't know how many of you are familiar with the Sewer music from the NES Terminator game, but it's a simple beat that never ends like they ran out of time before they could finish it.
So, using a NES soundfont, I had a go at making an actual tune out of it whilst also trying to crowbar the Terminator "motif" in there.
@loadhigh @likesoldmacs iirc MIDI synthesis is handled by the version of QuickTime installed on the system, so the music could sound radically different between a PB running System 7.x and an iMac running >OS 8.6. I think QT4 and up are using a General MIDI library that samples a Roland SC-55, which is roughly the same thing Windows was doing starting from around 2000 or so.
@ifixcoinops at least nobody is horny about any member of the Pacfamily. ...I hope.
They say big trucks are just a reality if you want to make deliveries in the city.
I say there's other ways to solve the "last-mile" problem...
There's your beer kegsโsorted.

@RealDaveRyder oof, that's a damning indictment of Ryder's sex life right there
Ya know what? I'm gonna toot my own horn today On Here Specifically.
I have already received at least a dozen thankful comments/replies for letting people know they can slow down door closers. A lot of people have been living with irritating bangs in apartment buildings and whatnot.
And thanks to watching a YouTube video, their life is now better. I didn't sell anything to them, I just decided to share some knowledge in my own (hopefully entertaining) way.
@atlasstorm yeah! the funny part about this device is I can beam it literally any file I want (via the Voice Recorder) but have no way to use any files that aren't specifically in WAV format. I could probably fill up its whole storage with a copy of Doom and not be able to run it without Explorer or a Run dialog box.
Alas, 1999 PDA, cable is 100% proprietary (and serial!) so would need someone who knows what they're doing (ie. not me) to kludge one together - ebay sure ain't got any!
