    Hasn’t happened to me because I listen to video game music and if my local grocer fucking started playing the Monster Hunter theme I would absolutely lose my shit.

    (Once in Japan a small shop selling pottery was playing a song from FF5 and I bought a lovely cup out of principle).

      I just want my grocery store to start playing JRPG OSTs. Buying vegetables while jaming to Chrono Trigger songs would be the best. Black Omen? More like best Omen.

        Adds a certain level of tension to the shopping experience, plus we know stores use slow songs to slow people down and shop more.

      I’ve heard the Ocarina of Time start screen song multiple times, in phone hold music as well as an elevator, in multiple countries.

      I also heard the song of storms once on a phone hold music.

      But what’s wild to me is that if you stay up late at night on the cruise ship from Finland to Sweden, this plays.

        The fact that they got Maurice LaMarche and Rob Paulson to be the bartenders is excellent.

        Also, I just noticed. His name is Robert Paulson… Pinky is Robert Paulson…

      A few years ago an ice cream truck came down blasting the Super Mario Bros 2 title music and I damn near chased after it

        I’ve heard enough of it when making a reimplementation of SMB2 in Lua (not even close to being in playable state). I don’t want to hear it anymore at all, lol.

        I’m not sure what the reaction is if Mystic Quests Battle 2 theme played at the super market. Lol
