8-bit

Post by SSJ2bardock » Tue Jan 06, 2009 10:32 pm

Recently I've seen some videos on youtube of people who take regular songs and convert them into 8-bit Nintendo versions.

Original song

8-bit version
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P8na3G8iTps


There's some kind of program that they're using to do this and I researched it a little myself, but the problem is I have no idea what I'm looking for. I thought it would be cool to do this with a few Dragonball songs so if anyone can help me out with this it would be greatly appreciated.

This program seems to be what you're looking for, which is displayed in the 2nd link.

You basically take a MIDI File and use that program to accomplish the rest.

Now, where to find a ChaLa midi?
[quote="Brakus"]For all the flack that FUNimation gets on this forum for their quote about DBZ, there's some modicum of truth to it: a 9-year-old is born every day. Or in some cases, "reborn". DBZ may be a kids' show, but it's been so close to so many hearts all over Japan, America, and quite possibly, even the world.[/quote]

Ask and you shall receive.

I thought it turned out pretty well and I'm pleased with it.

What player do you need to use to listen to MIDI files?
