The opening theme music to Super Metroid used to give me goosebumps because it was so creepy.

My friend brought his copy of Phantom Brave over and played it and that's when I heard the song "Thinking Of You" on there. Pretty cool song with strings.

Icewind Dale II

Basically most of the games where the music was done by either Jeremy Soule or Inon Zur. Orhcestral music that complimented the areas or the action very well without being overbearing. Most of the time you wouldn't even realize it was playing because it fit so well and when you did it was appropriate and pretty cool.

I don't see why Majora's Mask isn't considered one of the greatest Zelda games of all time, if not THE greatest. It is far and above any of the 3D zeldas in terms of originality, music, puzzles, narrative, and characters. It is probably the only 3D Zelda that has an adequate difficulty and the variation in gameplay that it holds is beyond anything the series has had before or since then. Not to mention it is crammed tight with mini games, side quests, and tons of other things to do. A fucking awesome game, and it needs to be on the VC.

Majora's Mask is definitely a great game and one of a kind it's own right. I always felt that it's dungeons beat OoT's big time. The time passage thing was frustrating though. If you screwed up some one-time event you had to start over the 3-day cycle. It's even more frustrating when you're a few doors away from a boss in a dungeon and have to go back to day one and make your way back.

As for a VC console release, you might be waiting awhile. The GC Zelda disk with all of them (except LttP) had Majora's Mask, but the music skipped every time it had to load something. I think emulating the expansion pack had something to do with this, which might explain why we haven't seen Donkey Kong 64 yet.
