I’ve put together a list of 60 tunes that have stuck with me through the years, inspired by Jeffrey Canam (@GrahfMetal)’s Twitter rundown of his top 100 favourite video game tracks. I’ve attempted to limit myself to a couple songs per game, but there are exceptions.

I’ll post them here and on Twitter every Tuesday and Thursday using the hashtag #KongsTdayTunes.

I’m so bad at fighting games, but I did spend a lot of time letting Tristan hone his skills by mopping the floor with my Ken while I tried to turtle in the corner. There are a lot of great tunes in this game, but picking Guile’s theme would have been too obvious.

Track: “America (Ken)” (YouTube Link)
Game: Street Fighter II: The World Warrior (SNES, 1992)
Composer: Yoko Shimomura
