This is one of my favorites, Anon. Nice taste.

I really like this Earthbound battle theme:

and this one from Lagrange Point:

You reminded of PC-88 with the second link.

I don't know any specific battle theme but Ys would take the price, no questions asked!

But for some stupid reason i'm reminded of https://youtu.be/YcHl_MD-srA

That battle theme is godly almost.

Still More Fighting is great, but its only number 2 after

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lMd6V1IOJ5k

And yeah, posting Final Fantasy stuff is cliche, but the battle themes are better than other games' so its only fair.

This is my third favorite though.

Not retro would be Bravely Default. Which plays and sounds exactly what I thought Final Fantasy would become, rather than what it did.

This song instantly makes me think of a panicked Narshe guard falling back from certain Magitek doom, screaming to his comrades to release their ultimate weapon; the ferocious electric snailbeast, Wheeeeelk!

Pretty sure Grandia 2 is board relevant technically. Love this cheesy animu tune. Not the biggest fan of the game and all, but some of the music is great.

All of the battle themes are great, but I like this one the most. Got to have have that build-up.

Lots of RPGs music because RPGs have the best battle themes. Shooters have the best stage music, but generally crappy battle themes.

I don't know about "best", but Headless from Brandish has still stuck around in my head after all these years.

And here's the theme again from the remake:

Fun Vidya History: For reasons still unclear to us Westerners, this song was basically the theme-song for trolling on Japanese boards/sites for the better part of the aughts (or whatever we're calling the previous decade now).
