I was just over at allmusic reading about Men Without Hats' last album when I read this sentence: 
"   Musically, No Hats Beyond This Point features such juvenile instrumental backing and insipid melodies that it's about as satisfying as a Super Nintendo soundtrack. " 
  
Don't you just hate it when people *cough*David Jefferies*cough* generalize about things.  Surely there are SNES games with very satisfying soundtracks.  Right? 
Just because someone, especially a music critic, doesn't find satisfaction within a genre, doesn't mean they should dismiss it as tripe.  Now, I understand the point about the album, but it's just phrased so wrong.

I don't quite see how racism factors into this but yeah, the guy is being just ignorant by saying that every SNES soundtrack is a poor collection of music.

the super nintendo is not a race dude, its a video game console

This is fascinating.

right. 

The TMNT IV: Turtles in Time soundtrack alone is better than half of the shit that qualifies as "music," now a days... but you seriously need to get your offensive/discriminatory terms straightened out.

@raggedglory:
Or... IS IT? 
 
on another note,

Why do I like a lot of SNES music more than modern music?

I'm not sure why I clicked on this.

I see what subby did there, didn't think he'd pull a reference that far back. Good for you. At least I hope that's what you did.

. I'd like to see any other format of entertainment make music as memorable as Starcraft or Orcarina of time. "

What about... the music industry? I've heard they've put out some pretty good stuff.  "

FFVI soundtrack is amazing.

I never knew the SNES was now classified as a race, not being a sarcastic asshole that critic needs to listen to more video game soundtracks to actually have a backed up opinion about them. 

Chrono Trigger has an awesome soundtrack.
