Exit Trance presents Famitrance EX
Release Date: 11/4/09
Price: 1905 yen
Despite the title being an allusion to Famicom, Famitrance isn’t limited solely to Famicom themes. Final Fantasy is well represented, with at least 5 tracks ranging from VII to X-2. All the big vocal themes from “Eyes on Me” to “Sutaki da ne” are covered, along with a few instrumental tracks.
Mother, Sakura Taisen, and Nobunaga’s Ambition get a healthy two tracks each, while it appears that Dragon Quest is only getting one. It would’ve been interesting if they had licensed a Bemani song by Ryu*, but I’m more than happy with him taking on the Tetris theme.
While the track list does look very strong and varied, I can’t help but be disappointed by the lack of Mario or Zelda themes. And what’s up with the random Goonies track? Oh well, still very much looking forward to this.

In case you didn’t know, the song “The Goonies ‘R’ Good Enough” is there because Konami made a Goonies game on the Famicom/NES.

I knew about the Famicom game, but it still seems like a completely random choice that would’ve fit better on a Cinema Covers 3.
Anyone have any idea what game “Full Metal Jacket (I Wanna Be Your Drill Instructor)” is supposed to be from? For the life of me I can’t remember a Full Metal Jacket game ever being released.

Well,the The Goonies ‘R’ Good Enough game is a cult classic. I actually think it would have been weird if they haven’t included it.

Quake messed up the track list for 18, 19 ,20 on the CD or what?
Kuon ~Hikari to Nami Kioku~ (from Final Fantasy X-2) / MK should be 20
Overture ~Nobunaga no Yabou~ (from Nobunaga’s Ambition) / B.U.S. should be 19
Shao Pai Long (from Choujikuu Yousai Macross) / Starving Trancer feat. Yah should be 18

Yup, they actually had it right when they first posted the track list, but then they updated it with the last three tracks mixed up. Now even the booklet and packaging have the tracks in the incorrect order.
