Ever notice how the battle themes of Final Fantasy VII and Quest 64 have virtually the same battle music?

If you run go into the rooms in the Castle on Quest 64 in the correct order, then talk to the Bishop, you can form a party with Cloud!! My dad works at Nintendo, and he told me not to tell anyone, but he wouldn't let me watch wrestling last night and took my Pokemon cards away.

>>	Anonymous Mon Apr 22 13:39:36 2013 No.515887 Final Fantasy 7 version sounds very polished and rich with various complimentary instruments. The Quest 64 battle theme sounds like a days work of imitation with limited resources.

The intro of the swamp music from DKC2 sounds a lot like Phil Collin's "In the Air Tonight."

Elec Man's theme sounds a bit like Journey's Faithfully.

Labyrinth Zone sounds a bit like "Best of My Love" by the Emotions.

Those are just a few I could list.

Also, some korean MMO practically copied Ys VI's soundtrack, I don't remember the name now.
