I just want to put this out into the universe.
If you are a homebrew developer of a GB, GBC, GBA, NES, SMS, MD/Genesis, N64, or PS1 game with a free version or a free demo of you game, I’d love to ship it with SuperStation as a physical or digital demo disk.

does anyone recognize which song(s) are used in the 14:03 - 15:20 section of this final fantasy medley? this midi was released in 1997 so it'd have to be final fantasy vii and earlier.
this recording is bad because the song needs to be played in roland gs mode

someone let that wapo guy know; i can't tell him because he follows bad actors :D
"bad actor follower blocklists are a bad idea because reporters may be following those accounts"
