Revision as of 15:13, 30 August 2021

This page lists the favorite songs of the Video Game Music Preservation Foundation's editors. Anyone who has an account on this site is encouraged to add their voice to these lists. While each editor may list as many songs as they desire on their user pages, on this page, editors are only allowed to vote for up to five songs per platform. Editors may change their votes as often as they like, but are expected to adjust the total votes and sort songs with the largest number of votes to the top each time they adjust their vote. If there is a tie in the number of votes, songs are sorted in alphabetical order.
