Is there a better and most fitting final battle song ever in a retro game?

https://youtu.be/h7HZjTUtINA

Freeza had been built up as a galaxy conquering emperor who enslaved and eventually eradicated the Saiya-jin race. There were universal stakes, and multiple personal stakes. Goku needed to stop a tyrant to free the universe of him, while also preventing Earth's destruction, and bringing redemption to the Saiyans as a whole...
And this song nail everything, bravo bandai.

Final battle song thread I guess

The same guy composed Hyper Dimension OST. Then he disappeared like every TOSE developer.

The normal battle song is imprinted in my mind forever along with sentences like "SAIBAI ATACA!".

How come no one did Cell Saga and Buu Saga hacks? This is the kind of game I would expect to have dozens of hacks done by spics full of OCs and transformations.

What? That sounds like shit, and that's a fucking SNES song. I've heard 8-bit songs with more depth.

>> No.5991043

It's not a "deep cut" or anything, but I've always found this one to be particularly memorable. It doesn't go for the "high energy" feel that most subsequent Sonic bosses did, but instead sounds almost like a dirge or a death march; like Robotnik has already won and this is his victory lap.

I love this one but I think that the final boss theme from 3 is even better.

My all-time favorite. It plays just as you finally gain the upper hand against the toughest boss in the game. The fact that you can't even reach this battle unless you're playing on the highest difficulty makes it that much sweeter.

Funny you mention that because Freeza's theme in Super Gokuuden 2 has a part from Mozart's Dies Irae

It's good too. I didn't remember it was in Final Bout, that game reused a lot of tracks from the SNES games.
The arranged version from the OST CD of super gokuden is also great, but I can't find it on youtube.

Didn't knew this was a thing.

The obscure Hyper Dimension arranged CD remixes are amazing.

I uploaded the Super Gokuuden Kakusei-hen arranged OST, since it may be hard to find and I think it's really incredible, as are all of the DBZ arranged OSTs by Yamamoto.

For some reason I had this OST as a folder with 2 separate discs, "Awakening edition" is the arranged album for Super Gokuuden Kakusei-hen, and Freeza's theme is titled "Suite Requiem (classical medley version)".
The other CD, Rebirth edition, has some arranged tracks from kakusei-hen, as well as from Hyper Dimension, Shin Butoden, etc.
And while I'm at it here's also the arranged OST for Super Gokuuden 1 (also includes the original SFC OSTs for both games)

If you mean this theme I posted here >>5991287
Yes, it's the track called "Suite Requiem (classical medley version)", skip the track to 1:30 to recognize it, because it has a long intro.
