The first stage theme from this game is also one of the first pieces of game music is remember enjoying, though overall I enjoyed the music for the Game Boy version much more <3 I gradually came to notice and enjoy the music in games more and more around this time. Stuff like Duck Tales and Castlevania Adventure [both for the GB] come to mind as other soundtracks I really came to enjoy around the same time.
As for collecting: I purchased a few soundtracks during the PSX era, and since I'm somewhat of a collector of various things, I began seriously collecting game music a few years ago. Usually, I mostly enjoy the part of collecting that precedes
finding. Basically, the
searching part. In the case of game music though, where I buy (almost exclusively) second-hand items, I also really enjoy the
package opening part; checking conditions, cleaning, replacing damaged cases, etc. Then popping the case in a slip and placing it in its spot in the cd/book cases I use for my collection [I have them placed in alphabetical order].
Here are a few pictures of my collection:
