Surskit's Top 1170 VG Music (Topic 1)

A project by user Surskit started on June 6th, 2008. ---

You read that right. No typos. 1170 decently-sized write-ups!

Yep, welcome to my newest ranking topic. After the "success" (aka failure) of my Top 70 Anime Openings List, I decided to go for an even bigger goal. At first it was just going to be a Top 170, but my ambitions grew bigger and bigger and I finally decided to make it a Top 970 (you can see how that went). It has taken me more than two months to pick all the music, upload the lacking ones to YouTube and, the hardest part, ranking them. This may very well be my biggest project thus far, except maybe for the giant fanfic I wrote two years ago here in GameFAQs.

Before commencing, here's a few points to be taken into consideration:

1.- Write-ups will be of varying sizes - Yeah. Sometimes I might write two sentences on a song, sometimes a paragraph or two, and sometimes something pretty long.

2.- I will be finishing this project... - ...as long as I have your support. I need motivation to continue, so whenever you can, post right away.

3.- I appreciate bumping - Lasa bumped my old list and I'm very thankful for it. I hope somebody else can bump this topic if necessary.

4.- This list is Nintendo console-centered - Dat's right, son. To avoid having to brainstorm for some music I might have forgotten, I decided to just make this a Nintendo VG Music list. Of course, there's a few exceptions - Silent Hill and Viva Pinata are two examples.

5.- Updates will be constant - Considering the size of the list, I'll try to update as often as possible. There's nothing guaranteed, but I'll try being as fast as possible when it comes to write-ups. If I don't update, it's either because I'm taking a break or simply busy with school, which is not a rare sight.

6.- Chances this is accurate are minimal to none - If you see, say, the main Mario theme above Gourmet Race, it doesn't mean the Mario theme is millions of times better - in fact, it might be worse. But with 1,170 songs to position in a list you can barely keep track of, mistakes are done, and there's not much I can do about it. Just note I'll be changing the positions of the songs from time to time.

With that said, let's get started. First few write-ups coming soon.
