There's likely some deeper technical reason besides "too much effort" and "obviously consumers don't want OLD BUSTED BEEP BOOP", but it made me wonder exactly what heights the original GB sound hardware could achieve - not necessarily in terms of composition/arrangement, but the limits to which the system could be stretched, especially when it was still handling a game at the same time.
So please suggest some impressive Game Boy/Color music for me to listen to, preferably actual soundtracks but original/demo work is fine too. I know there's a lot of fun stuff in later European licensed games, but I'm hoping to get some opinions/suggestions I wouldn't have considered before.
Metroid Zero Mission makes some use of the gameboy's audio chip for some tracks... only game i could think of since i didn't play as many gba titles as gameboy games.
Edit: Opps, there I go only reading part of something again...
