1/5/2008 - NES BttF game's music is from the movie

If you've seen the Angry Video Game Nerd's review of Back to the Future for the Nintendo Entertainment System, you'll have heard him complain about the horrendous music in the game and how it doesn't sound like anything in the movie. Well, this video actually proves him wrong:



Wow, this was a revelation to me and to a lot of other gamers, I'm sure. To think that the absolutely vile cacophony from the game was actually "Power of Love" by Huey Lewis and the News, only SPED UP... that alone tells you that the programmers for this game did not know the movie at all. Also, the fact that somebody recognized it and took the time to speed down the music to match the original soundtrack... well, it just shows that old games, even bad ones, never truly die.
