I'm proud to say I have never once in my life played any form of video game music in my car. The only way I would do it is if I had a straight up Super Mario Bros theme CD that I could blast, that would actually be really funny and so impossibly nerdy that it might cross back over into cool.
Hahahhahhahaha
. You might recall many moons ago when I confessed (on another forum) to playing NES (and other) tunes in my first car (brown '82 Datsun 200 sx) when I was in college (early 90's).
Prior to that, I played 8-tracks in my parent's car (Pea soup green '72 Cadillac Deville or Seville, I forget) when I cruised in high school. Here's the best part: I wanted to play cassette tapes (of all types of music, not only video game stuff) in the Cadillac, so I looked through a Radio Shack catalog and found a
cassette tape --> 8-track converter!!!! I was stoked! Our local Radio Shack even had one in stock! This was back in 90-91...
Unfortunately, the dashboard / radio didn't have enough clearance for the converter. Had the dashboard been only 1/2" higher, I would have been in heaven. My friends and I had a lot of fun building up an 8-track library, though, so it all worked out for the best (my parents' existing library was pretty small, though their disco stuff was killer).
Anyway, I ended up using the cassette --> 8-track converter on my own stereo (which was an 8-track / stereo / phonograph combo).
I wish I still had my old VGM cassette tapes ... my favorite tunes to blast (with windows rolled all the way down, uber-nerd stylee) was Karnov (NES)... Later, when we got TG-CD, Valis II was a fave as well...
