The girl has taste.
One of my favourite pieces ev0r videogame-wise is the looped melody at the start of the Zelda games on the title screen. I think the OoT version is the best incarnation.
I got hold of the soundtrack CDs for OoT and MM and a couple of orchestrations. Yeah, I'm a Nintendo fanboy but the music itself is righteous. Particularly, as lux pointed out, considering that in the 8-bit and 16-bit eras they really were working within pretty tight boundaries. Even on the '64 they were, actually.
