Rocket Knight Adventures music 'Level 1' in 8-bit (VRC)

Guess what's my new favorite game!

Konami's 'RKA' is a real masterpiece. It has everything that makes a game a good game: great gameplay, cool characters and pig soldiers! I don't know why it isn't famous like Konami's other games, though... Because of that, I decided to make a tribute for the game. I hope you like it!

The song was tracked by me in Famitracker. The original song and the game is (C) Konami.

Sounds awesome! but I have one question, which program did you used?

[NewAgeRetroGamer]

I used Famitracker to track the song, then used MS Paint to make the image.

[BaragonKun]

how hard it was?

[NewAgeRetroGamer]

It gave me enough trouble to scrap it two times :/ I tried making it without any chips at first, but it wasn't looking cool. So I tried with MMC5, without sucess. Then, I finally settled with VRC6, since it has got more options. But even with those extra channels, I had to modify some parts of the song to make it fit on NES' limitations.

yeah, it is a pretty kickass game

This is so weird. I've been a pretty big Klonoa fan for a really long time, and then I found out about this series from a review, and added Rocket Knight to the list of things I love.

I just was listening to the 8-bit remix of "Difficult to Say" and saw this in the related videos, furthering my association between the two series.

This is an awesome cover, nicely done. :)

Mah Boi, FamiTracker is what all true remixers strive for!.....What? GXSCC? It Burns!

Nice job man :), very faithful to the original.

[MegaMacTV]

This is exactly what it would sound like had it been on the NES. This is a very accurate and awesome rendition with perfect use of the chip sounds. They correspond greatly to the original track. Rocket Knight Adventures is one of my favorite games. It's highly underrated! Glad its one of yours too!

@NewAgeRetroGamer there is a v3.5 with vrc7 support out, try that

[TheTKC]

Thank god this isn't a midi convert. Good job!

[Snip3rNife]

That's a good image. Got DeviantART? I wanna fave that :P

[Swordfyre]

I've been playing this game lately, it's really awesome!
