Question Looking for music similar to this style

Hi,

I am looking for soundtracks / artists that sound similar to following two examples:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dUYfoPHPEWI
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cxhaQ-EbWTk

As you can tell, they both have this old school MIDI / synth / j-rock (?) vibe. Can anyone recommend me OSTs / artists / games that utilize similar style?

Many thanks. : )

This reminds me a lot of the original Lagoon and Overtake:

Reminds me of 80s-early 90s action and shooter games. Ikari and Cotton series for example. But also Final Fantasy: Mystic Quest's battle themes, and some of Sega's racing and sports games.
