8-bit Music vs. New Music

8-bit musics are pretty classic and nostalgic, but in terms of quality, new musics are definitely going to win it. It's a no-brainer.
 
8-Bit music definitely has the potential to sound great and in the GBC Pokemon games, it really did. Even so, I still prefer the new music, just because it adds to the suspense of battles and generally sounds "cleaner" in terms of quality, so to speak.
 
The only older song that I like from the good old days of Pokemon Red and Blue is the Surfing music other than that, I prefer the newer versions of the songs and newer songs.

The new music is sweet, but the eight bit from Red/Blue Route 1, that's stuck in my head for life for some reason.
 
I like the new music better because it shows how much the music in the Pokemon games has improved over time. Not only that, it sounds better, IMO.
 
It's a tie. My favorite Pokemon tracks of all time are either from RBY or BW. Not even kidding. Like...check out my last.fm and the only songs from the game I listen to are RBY or BW, excluding one. I personally love the music no matter how old it may be or how new. So...yeah. I love them both. Both have their pros and cons, both have their significance for their games, etc etc generic beautiful post. Point is, they're both excellent.
 
Honestly, I've muted all of my games until B/W. The music in B/W is so modern and clean sounding, I love it. The Pinwheel Forest and Driftveil City are my two favorite places music-wise.
 
Well, in my opinion, the newer music is obviously much better, because of the higher capabilities. But obviously that doesn't mean the 8-bit music is bad, It just makes me feel really nostalgic whilst listening to it. But yeah, it's still the newer music for me.

Though, I think the GB sounds item in HG/SS was an amazing idea.
 
The new music has better quality, and it's more catchy.
But I remember when I was I child I kept on singing the 8-bit music in my head. I used to love it.
 
I like some of the new takes on the classic 8 bit songs, like Ecrutreak City in HG/SS as well as Cinnabar Island. However, some songs I enjoy in 8 bit form, such as Gen II's Victory Road, Route 27, and New Bark Town. I'm biased haha.
 
both actually, but if I had a favorite all time BGM in Pokemon series, I would choose Battle Reshiram - Zekrom from Black/White... that music is the only Pokemon music I could actually dance to (as far as game music for Pokemon games)!!!
