Songs that sound like they came from a video game

[Nadius]

I just realized how the begining of Prince's Batdance sounds alot like the begining of Phantasy Star IV.

There was another song I had in mind before posting this, but i completely forgot what it was.

Anyone else know of any other songs that are similar to other video game tunes?

yeah... but I'm very bad with names

I listen to industrial a lot because it really reminds me of old school vid game music.

I hear the SID or a SID emulator being used as the lead synth in techno tracks from time to time.

In 1994 Wesbam released a single called 'Wizards of the Sonic' which actually contained samples from Sonic 2. I have a copy and it isn't half bad.
