Not really. Anyway, it's all over and it looks like Outrun took the right fork in the last round having gone left in all the previous rounds.

Legend of Zelda: Main Theme 16

And so we face the final curtain. It's the big one (or second biggest one after the Tetris vs Mario quarter final).

I abstain in protest at the lack of Sega representation.

We should do jingles next so the final can be "SAY-GAH" versus "SAYGUH" for how Sega is differently pronounced at the start of Sega games

I have seriously considered a GR Decides Greatest Gaming Sound Effects and also Greatest Console Startup Music/Sounds. Sega probably wins both.
