I really love stereotypically sounding Oriental music in old games. For whatever reason this kind of music coming out of Game Boy speakers hits me just right. Feel free to post other examples.

Why'd they take away his sword and suit of armor in AW1?
Amazing when you learn that those first few bars of the song and how it became a stereotype for Chinese people and all this time it was done by a Japanese guy.
Asians BE FIGHTIN'!
Those bars predate Mario Land by over a fricking century.
I'm sure there's something about Eastern scales and their sharpness that feels at home with limited sound channels but I'm too moronic to know

Simply the best, there is no debate.

Super Chinese 2 for the Gameboy (name is probably something else) has an amazing oriental chiptune soundtrack.
Sadly no real OST vids on YT I could find.
Ah yiss
I miss the good 'ol ninja times of the 80s
Ur all Chinese

OP the homosexual, in da fresh.
This isn't typical oriental music at all
This is more of a modernized acid jazz stuff
Make way for Columns 3!
Ninja and karate games for C64 are a gold mine for this shit

>stereotypically sounding Oriental
It's just called oriental music. There's really nothing stereotypical about it.
I would say stuff like this https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oriental_riff
is stereotypical and it’s used in one of the super mario land songs.
no, that's where you're wrong. By broadly calling it "oriental music" you're creating the stereotype. If you were to qualify the music by identifying the time period of the music, your statement would offer enough context to avoid being characteristically stereotypical. As it is, positing "oriental music" insinuates an ignorance of the subject matter and hence a characteristically stereotypical interpretation or lacking understanding of the subject matter
>mfw S&B Foods, a company located in Japan describes their Golden curry product as Oriental
I already knew you were full of shit but seeing things like that right out in plain view makes me chuckle a bit. Literally every Chinese person I've ever met used the term and other South East Asians use the term too. Things from the parts of East Asia traditionally occupied by East Asians and most Central Asians and Southeast Asians racially categorized as "Mongoloid". Unless you're using the term as the Romans did Whitu Piggu go home.

What does this have to do with anything said here
OP is talking about a specific cliche and not "oriental music" in general. Gamelan is also "oriental" but that's not the kind of sound OP and other people in the thread are seeking, is it?
lol, this has to be a troll post, either that or your hair color has 4 different kinds of bright in it.
it's just semantics, despite what your politbrain is attempting to tell you. Calling something oriental simply conveys very little about the subject in question. You can use the word, but you've got to ask yourself what you're actually saying; but you don't care about that, you just want to call people libs on the internet
Here's some from the Turbografx CD
what's Shanghai about?
nevermind it's fricking mahjong. don't know what i expected
With a name like that, 100% tile stacking and not actually Majong. I don't even need to look it up.
I love the Virtual Boy soundchip and how clear its speakers sound.

For whatever, Bomberman games like doing the quasi-Oriental themes.
