Nothing newely suggested, but Sonic the Hedgehogs 1~3 and Sonic & Knuckles
Illusion of Gaia
Twilight Princess
Terranigma (Tenchi Sozo Creative soundtracks is great, I love my copy but its missing well over half the f*****g soundtrack, including the best 2 tracks in the game which just annoys me, trying to palm us off with poor arranged tracks doesn't help either)
Luigis Mansion ~ Mario Sunshine
Shenmue 2
and maybe a Biohazard 4 normal sized soundtrack cd, at least as an alternative to the huge book, that nobody really cares for.
They should stop milking Franchises, and making 500 arranged albums, piano collections, remix albums, vocal albums to each final fantasy, suikoden etc and focus on bringing us all what we really want.

I just saw this post and I figure I have to give my 2 cents
There are a bunch of music from old NES games that I would love to hear arranged or on some sort of collection album:
the old Mindscape/Kemco games(Shadowgate, Uninvited, Deja Vu), as well as others like Astyanax and Faxanadu, hell, even the old Tecmo sports games, though sparse, had(in my opinion) memorable and catchy tunes.
And Kudos to the posters who mentioned Alcahest and Shadowrun - Great stuff!
And here's another Jun Ishikawa classic SNES sountrack that needs its own release:  Cardmaster(Arcana)

Of course, this could all be a little bit of nostalgia talking...

Hey, nothing wrong with nostalgia - would just love a soundtrack for the Mindscape 'trilogy' myself Shadowgate being one of  the first games I can remember playing, on a friends Mac back in the day so many years ago.

Are we talking about the SNES Shadowrun? I never played the one on Genesis or Xbox360. The SNES one had some pretty good stuff in there.

On the topic of SNES . . . Top Gear 2! The game had maybe five or six tracks total, but I would LOVE an arrange album of what was in there.

Heh, speak for yourself - I love my B4 book!

Yup, that's the one
It doesn't have to many tracks, but they're all real moody and replete with bass-funky goodness
I wanna get a band together just to cover the music
And seriously, Shadowgate has to be one of my all-time favorite NES game soundtracks, hands down

Those old NES graphical adventures (Shadowgate, Deja Vu, The Uninvited) definitely had great music, so much personality to them. Its so cool how Deja Vu's soundtrack managed to give off such a classy jazz-vibe through the NES's measly square waves.

I wonder if putting "Shadow" in a game's title automatically guarantees that it'll end up having kick-ass music? Shadowgate, Shadowrun, the Shadow Hearts games...

We live in a decadent, twilight time.

I love the music in that game and the game itself to death.

I'd also appreciate an OST for the "bit Generations" GBA series

Whoa, you're right. Kind of like the "Gear" craze of the late 90's. Guilty Gear, Xenogears, Elemental Gearbolt, Metal Gear Solid . . .

(I don't put Kid Icarus or other stuff released on mini cds..)

I think Magician Lord's music was released on this album:

http://vgmdb.net/album/631

I don't know if this had the full soundtrack, though.

Only 5 tracks, I suppose it's not complete, but thanks, I missed that one!

You have some Pilotwings tracks on the Super Famicom Game Music CD too..

Yeah, I have the Neo Geo CD game. It's got it all! You can find them for cheap on eBay!

*Actually, the album Crash mentions probably has all the songs but they're strung together. They probably loop, too, but not nearly as much as the Neo CD audio!

Not to mention Shadow of the Colossus and Shadow the Hedgehog.
I think you may be on to something here!

Yes I already ripped the Neo cd version..The sound is quite low by the way (you can't hear it easily)

And yes, I checked the CD tracklist, it's 25mn of Magician Lord, it has it all. Even if I have the Neo CD rip, I definitely want this CD!

I wish Konami went the same route as SEGA and started releasing Anniversary compilations. I demmand a TMNT compilation now. Some of the catchiest music ever.

I'd love to see boxset containing all lucasarts point & click adventure ost's.

You know, I missed out on scores like those because my computer lacked speakers. Lucasart's The Dig, especially, was lost on me as a result. Sad, I had heard amazing things about it.

I feel kind of sick to my stomach that I let that boxset with the soundtracks to Gargoyle's Quest slip by me. That's something I've been interested in for a while, but now it seems I have to rely on luck to get my hands on those soundtracks.

Other than that, what's taking Sega so long to release a Sonic boxset for the original 4 games on the Genesis/MegaDrive (hopefully Sonic CD and 3D are included in that set as well)? Glad they're bringing out a Shinobi one, though.

Only other soundtrack I would be interested in now is an Xexyz arrange/original soundtrack combo. Wait, could I have missed the Xexyz boat as well?

From the things I've been told, quite a few things are holding this back. I'm sure someone can fill you in, I don't know all the details and it wouldn't be right as rain.

Because it didn't offer much in the way of new and groundbreaking Zelda music, too many rehashes of old themes from OoT, and a declining ost market in Japan.

Face it, this game was just an updated 2006 rehash of Ocarina.

On the other hand, i would LOVE to see an enhanced/remade version of Mujula/Majora's Mask, just because it was so eccentric and quirky.

But please, please, Nintendo. ...Make sure you give us the option to skip the cutscenes this time around!!

Because they forgot to when they did the rush-job of transferring it to the GameCube Collector's Disc back in 2003.
But even worse was the fact that the game would actually CRASH with no hope of unfreezing it when you did certain things like plant Magic Beans in soil patches.
Your only hope was to save your game often.
But still, a disc that locks up, released by the almighty 'Super Mario Debug Club' of NINTENDO OF EFFING JAPAN??!?

That's something that only happens every once in an Orange Moon.

(okay, that was a terrible joke. But i really couldn't think of anything else for it)

I'm still wishing for a Complete Track of Sons of Liberty, but there's no way KCEJ would ever release an album a whole 8-9 years after a game came out (even one as popular as MGS2).

Does Mr. Hibino even work for Konami anymore?

I disagree with everything you just said.

I do too, although I have a considerably different reason. Mainly, it's because those reasons are pretty silly in light of three much more notable reasons:

1. Fan rips of Twilight Princess are huge, reaching into the hundreds of tracks, mostly cinematic pieces. Even with many of those cut out (to the inevitable outcry of fans), a soundtrack release could probably surpass two discs in size.
2. Scitron Digital Contents Inc, who distributed most commercial Nintendo soundtracks since 2001 or so, isn't around anymore
3. To my knowledge, in the past five years, Nintendo has only released four complete soundtracks (Fire Emblem DS, Pokemon Diamond/Pearl, Rhythm Tengoku and Mario Galaxy). Five if you count the Kirby Super Star Deluxe CD. Only two (Pokemon and Rhythm Tengoku) were commercial. It's probably fair to say they don't actually care any more.

2. Out of curiosity, does it really matter that Scitron is out of the game?
3. Adding Star Fox Assault [promo] soundtrack to that list. I would throw in the Fire Emblem Path of Radience [promo] soundtrack, but it wasn't even 30 minutes long.

Have hopes for an upcoming Metroid and Zelda soundtrack release in 2010.

Being that they were the ones publishing Nintendo soundtracks when other labels weren't, I'd say yes that did matter.
(1 minus 1 = 0)

The MediaFactory record label is the closest thing to a label that publishes Nintendo albums, and they haven't done much.  http://vgmdb.net/search?q=ZMC

Maybe I'm missing something, but it doesn't seem like Scitron had a lot to do with official Nintendo soundtrack releases.

Nobody else was putting out Wind Waker, Metroid Prime/Fusion, F-Zero GX/AX, Famicom 20th series, Mario & Zelda Big Band Live CD/DVD...

While that isn't much, there would have been an even bigger black hole for nintendo music in the early & mid 2000s without those full releases.  (besides Media Factory doing the couple Pokemon osts, and the couple of Nintendo Dream Magazine freebies). 

For those who want full OST albums, they should hope that other labels pick up where Scitron left off, because Nintendo themselves sure aren't doing it.

When you say "I Have hopes for an upcoming Metroid and Zelda soundtrack release in 2010" which exact record label are you suggesting will do it?

Well, what I was trying to get across was that there have been various labels that have been involved with Nintendo soundtracks, both past and present, so the loss of Scitron doesn't seem like such a big deal as long as there is another label willing to publish the material.

As for a label that might do the Metroid and Zelda soundtrack, couldn't Nintendo just do it themselves? If not, then Aniplex is another viable choice.

That doesn't make sense. It's not as multiple labels put out the same music. Nintendo happened to use them as their label, but that doesn't mean if they didn't exist Nintendo wouldn't have gone with someone else.

actually, I think it could mean that. After all, not all creator/publisher/distributor relationships are made equal. Nintendo might be of the position that if they can't be in a deal that notably favors them, they won't be in one at all. Additionally, there may have been more personal relationships between members of Nintendo and Scitron that couldn't be replicated at other/later publishers.

I still think it mainly boils down to Nintendo not really giving a shit about putting out soundtracks, though.

It's the other way around.  The labels decide what they want to publish, and then license the music material. 
They are not "asked" or "chosen" by game companies. 

Most labels who publish game music albums also publish albums of mainstream artists as well, because vgm is only a small portion of their portfolio selection, and the label has to be diversified to survive.

I'd estimate about 3/4ths of all game music soundtracks have been published by stand alone labels who license the music material, while only 1/4th of game soundtracks have been published by the game companies themselves.

And even then, the game company forms a seperate media subsidiary to do it, take Capcom's Suleputer for instance.   You'd think the capcom record label only makes capcom albums?  They couldn't survive if that was their only income.  Suleputer licenses movie DVD Box Sets of American TV shows to the Japanese market too, as they need that diversification to stay alive.

Good guess, Aniplex has made 1 nintendo album for Animal Crossing, and it was recently just this year, so they may be your only glimmer of hope.

Actually, I wasn't looking at Animal Crossing when I threw out that label -- I was looking at the most recent Fire Emblem album, "Fire Emblem: Shin Ankoku Ryuu to Hikari no Ken Original Soundtrack".

Looking at the Sonic the Hedgehog Birthday/Anniversary soundtrack, they have BGM tracks from Sonic 1, Sonic 2, Sonic 3, and Sonic & Knuckles.

Very odd.

Nintendo has brought a lot of new releases out lately:

Animal Forest Let's Go to the City ~Concert in the Forest~
Fire Emblem Shadow Dragons and the Blade of Light Original Soundtrack
Kirby Ultra Super Deluxe Original Soundtrack
Nintendo SLG Soundtrack Best Selection
Rhythm Tengoku Complete Music Collection
Rhythm Tengoku Gold World Vocal Album
Touch! Generations Soundtrack

Good sign that they want to release the most important new soundtracks and realize that their products are potentially marketable or at least good bonuses. If they keep it up, I'd say the exodus is over. No sign of them going retrospective yet though...

That's what I thought too.

not at all, it was the anniversary of Sonic's 10th birthday, so they made a cd compilation, including Sonic's older themes.
it's a good cd.
