While I do love the music from Zelda, F-Zero get my vote.
Metroid.
Absolutely Metroid.
zelda, metroid, donkey kong country and banjo have the best music, i can't pick the "best" because they are so different and i can't compare them.
Super Smash Brothers Brawl. In no other place will you find old, 8-bit legendary music, brought to you in full orchestrated wonder.
o yh smash bros acutely!
Mario, if you include all the Yoshi games and RPGs. For second place, Zelda, and third I'd give to Professor Layton.
If you're going to separate Donkey Kong, then I think it's fair to separate Yoshi's Island. That game has the best music of any game. Ever.
I would also have to vote Metroid. Super Metroid in particular.
I voted Zelda. But after looking at the comments I realized I should've gone with Metroid. That music is unbelievable. Any of them really.
Mother 3
mario galaxy 2 wins it
Mega Man 2 to this day keeps me humming. The best Capcom ever did.
Professor Layton series. Hands down.
The Fire Emblem series.
River City Ransom!
Mother 3 or Professor Layton series if that counts
I am voting for f-zero and pretty much all sega games (Yeah even monkey ball)
even though tectonically it is not nintendo
Mother 3!
Oh man, it would be hard to choose just one. If there was an option that said "all of the above", I'd pick it. Mario's got awesome music and so does Sonic, Zelda, Donkey Kong, Smash Bros., Crash Bandicoot, Street Fighter, Diddy Kong Racing, the list goes on!
if a CD set of nintendo's greatest songs, I'd love all the songs on it.
The Mother/EarthBound games, the two songs that immediately come to mind are Pokey (porky, whatever) Means Business and Natural Killer Cyborg.
Metroid. End of discussion.
Does the Megaman series count? I mean, Megaman 1-7 and X1 were all exclusive, so…
Failing that, Mario (for the RPGs, especially Paper Mario), Kirby (especially Kirby Super Star), and EarthBound/Mother.
Earthbound and Professor Layton 😀
Earthbound and Super Metroid. Though Nintendo soundtracks hardly fail, I can't wait for the Symphonic Game Concerts Legends.
Monkey's Favorite Lake.
The best Nintendo soundtrack to me has been the one for the Pikmin series!
