PC Engine Hucard soundtracks that use sampled drums

[Black Tiger]

I believe that Tokimeki Memorial is the only CD game I've found, which seems to use standard samples within chiptunes, instead of adpcm. It might have been a similar title, but I'm pretty sure that's the one. There are segments with streaming adpcm dialogue while the full chip track plays, without it all bejng pre-recorded like some of YS IV's dialogue.

I haven't played it in a dog's age but I seem to remember Genji Tsushin Agedama having sampled drums. The stage one theme is a real ear worm. Pure sex. Don't dare listen without a towel.

Sorry if that game has already been mentioned.

I agree that it's an ear worm.  I've had it & the stage 1 music from Son Son II stuck in my head for the past week.

However, I'm pretty certain the drums are still chip-produced.

Yeah the more I think about it the more I believe you're right. Looks like I need to bust the game out and listen for myself.

Nah, sounds like standard PCM to me. 

What's odd, is that years ago before actually owning the game, I had a dream about it, & was blasting the music to a friend or something, & IN that dream it had some really dope sampled drums!

Keep your dreams away from my memories! They're screwing with me. 

I had some sampled chip music in my head earlier that hasn't been mentioned but it must've leaked out. As soon as I remember I'll be back.

Ah it was Legend of Valkyrie! Now I know I heard samples in this Namco classic.

Haha nope sadly.  I am certain the only Namco game to use sample drums is dragon saber.  They do have a pretty good sound engine on most of their games tho.

Damn!

I quit.

They must have had a good sound engine since there isn't a shred of "Tinny-ness" in its drum sounds.

CD chip tunes with (likely use at least some adpcm) drum samples:

Dragon Slayer
Cyber City OEDO 808
Genocide

I was really shocked at how good the drum samples are in Dragon Slayer Legend of Heroes.  So good I think they might be better than coryoons.... :O

Also although this topic is mostly about hucards with drum samples..since ya added a little list of CD-rom games with drum samples I might also want to add NEMURENU YORU NO CHIISANA OHANASHI YUKO HARA which seems to have sampled percussion stuff, and this game is so cute and upbeat I am actually blushing from how sugar coated this game is.

[ParanoiaDragon]

I wish the 2nd Legend of Heroes game also used sampled drums, that kinda bugged me that they didn't stick to that.

[Digi.k]

I think Gaia no monshou too has samples although cannot quite tell from the youtube vids.

also Snatcher CD-ROMantic

[Digi.k]

I think world jockey by Namcot 1991 could also have drum samples!  surprising as I thought Dragon Saber was their only pc engine game to have them

[Black Tiger]

Snatcher doesn't use samples.

I still can't be bothered to put together a proper list, but here are some off the top of my head that might not have been posted:

Operation Wolf
Yami no Ketsuzoku
Cyber City OEDO 808
Andre Panza Kickboxing

Rastan Saga II uses sampled Dum Dums
