So, I finally got a smart phone instead of my crappy old phone I used to have.
That said, I was downloading some ring tones and of course, the geek that I am, I searched for retro arcade stuff.
Here's what I found so far, but I'd like to know if anyone has another other good ones:
- Bombjack Theme
- Crystal Castles music when you grab the hat: I use this for my alarm
- Galaga change stage music
- Robotron - End of level sound effect (with and without alien brains spawning)
- Gauntlet Key sound: I use this for incoming e-mails
- Ms. Pacman Scene 1 music: I assign this to my wife when she calls. :applaud:
- Tron Arcade Theme
- Gyruss Arcade Theme
- SMB3 underground level theme (same music as SMB1 but remixed with a cool beat for SMB3)
- Zelda flute sound (NES)
- Venture music (Colecovision)
- Mortal Kombat II - The Screaming Forest: I edited this one down to about 10 secs.
Any other ones? I'd love to have some Joust sounds or any other cool games.
They can be in wav or mp3 format. My phone takes both.
Thanks for the help.

This is my ringtone, recorded it straight from Mame using Audacity
No chance of this one not waking you up ;D

Also if anyone WANTS an mp3 of any game music, let me know i'll hook you up
-
The first few seconds of the Ironside theme are my ring-tone. Never fails to annoy.
Ironside Open (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EaHDut6z8yg#)
Your Ms. Pac Man idea is really clever. I may be stealing that. :cheers:
-
I use the SNES bomberman battle mode music. It's always a pleasure when my phone rings ;D
-
Not really retro, but I use X-Naut fortress from Paper Mario 2. Eventually I'll change it.
However, I also have the Super Mario Bros. theme (not the original, but close) as my ringback tone. Anyone who knows me and calls my cell knows, without a doubt, that they dialed the right number.
-
Ive had in the past the Capcom 'ring' as a msg tone.
-
Text message:

I have used the Galaga and Pac man themes. Also some TV tunes like Fawlty Towers, Wonder Woman, Pinky and the Brain, Star trek and some Star Wars themes.

My wife's ringtone is Fawlty Towers! ;D
-
I always felt like an overly geeky ring tone branded me with an "L" on my forehead ;D Whether I deserve it or not is not the point, lol.
I'm not hard of hearing by any stretch, but I do find most stock ring tones and MP3s to play too softly, even at max volume, to be reliably heard unless you are holding your phone. So when I am anywhere beyond the home or office, my ring tone is set to an old fashioned ma-bell style in-your-face ring.

Lol, does she remind you of Sybil? Or Polly?

We named the cat Polly. :lol
(yes, after Connie Booth's character)

Cool.
I use the Happy Tree Friends theme for my GF. Not really retro, but it's a similar type of simple tune :)
BTW where do you guys get these arcade ringtones? Can you get them from the games themselves or do you record it somehow?
-
Multiple sources. OSTs, web sites with sound clips, some are MIDIs, etc

Ah ok. Indeed, my Galaga and Pacman themes are MIDI too.

My Galaga isn't. Let me see if I can find the MP3 I used....

What kind of smart phone? Droid, Iphone, other?
My ring tone is "scotty doesn't know" from Euro Trip movie. Great song.

I would like to get the music from Captain Commando. Like when you choose him as a character on marvel v capcom or any of those fighting games. Capcom makes the best music imo. Or Flash Mans music from Mega Man 2. Booyah. :applaud:
-
Not at all retro, but my text/e-mail tone on my BB is the metal gear solid codec beep.
The girlfriend has assorted mario sounds on her iphone, but I love my mgs codec too much to change it to anything else.
My ringtone is always just my song of the week.
-
My wife works in a very 'pc' environment, and asked me to put a clip on her phone from Prodigy - "smack my ---smurfette--- up"
-
I use the Galaga intro music as my ringtone.

What OS does your new smart phone use?
There are actually MAME ports to some platforms!
Symbian S60 3rd edition

Symbian S60v5

Maemo (in the works, some roms playable)
http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=42824 (http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=42824)
I'm using the first one on my Nokia N95 8GB. The early 80's stuff plays fine & the mid 80's stuff runs slow.
It uses old MAME version .32 roms IIRC.
Together with the TV-out & a bluetooth controller, it ain't half bad for killing time in hotels.
-
Anything I turn into my ringtone becomes a tone I dislike. I just use a general ringtone off the phone. I don't want my phone to scream NERD at the worst possible time.

This would make a good ringtone. Its the player select from Captain Commando

im using galaxian stage startup sound as my ringtone(note, not galaga! as everyone else here uses).
-
Anything I turn into my ringtone becomes a tone I dislike..
Yea, that awesome ring tone becomes work...Yikes!
Maybe try a game you don't like that much.
-
Rolled my own Galaga startup theme ringtone a while back.

Or just use it only as a ringtone for people you like.

What OS does your new smart phone use?
I have no idea. It's a Blackberry Tour.
As for the sounds:
If you guys can supply links where possible that would be great. :)

Ugh, BB Tours... ---smurfy--- black ball... impossible to clean...
It's running BB OS 5.0 most likely...
hat being said, I use a BB storm... even bigger POS... can't wait to trade it in for a BB Pearl 2. The touchpads are muuuuuuuuuch nicer than any trackball. The only thing that made me decide on a storm was not having to use a ball...

You must have the Storm v1 - I just upgraded my v1 to a version 2 - waaayy better. So much so, it's like night and day. Can't wait for OS 6 to come out, looks cool...
-
I do have the storm 1, but with os 5.0. It provided a VERY substantial speedboost. I deal with the Cellular communications within the company, so I've played around with pretty much every phone (minus smart phones or anything android).
The storm 2 is a nice step up. Not much different from the storm 1 on bbos 5.0, though.
-
Yeah, with the same OS, they're on par - except for the button under the screen. The electric-controlled four button setup on the new Storm is so much better than the single mechanical button in the middle of the screen on the version 1. I've had mine for about a month now and already I've found it's made my use of the phone much easier, and more accurate when I select items, plus I can type\select items faster.

Hahaha rock on Smeg, that is awesome. I forgot all about that one! Gotta love that bass. :cheers:

Magical sound shower from outrun as ringtone
and the mail mother ****** from euro trip for msgs. Thats a good one tbf!
-
I also have Magical Sound Shower (cut to start at 0:44) as my ringtone and the Out Run coin in sound as Msg tone.
-
I also have Magical Sound Shower (cut to start at 0:44)
Sort me out with that mate, mines from the very start!
-
I had a little free time so I downloaded Magical Sound Shower and chopped it for you.
I don't know how long you wanted it but its about 42 seconds. I chopped it in a way so that it will loop nicely if your phone etc does that.
I also chopped a section out in case you wanted a matching message alert.
-
I know its not an arcade game as such but I found quite a nice Mario Invincibility mp3 to use as my ringtone. I've faded the first second or so in so that it doesn't give me a heart attack when it goes off :o ;D
Edit:
If anyone wants be to try to find or edit etc anything else I don't mind :)
I don't know what the legalities are but maybe we could have a SFX/ringtone section in the File Repository?
-
Pacman startup - default calls
mrs pac-man startup - wife calls
mrs pacman intermission - daughter calls
Berzerk "Chicken fight like a robot" - son calls
Berzerk "Intruder Alert" - recieve text messages
-
I have the SMB 1-Up sound as my text message alert.

Here are a couple that I made myself from MAME. The buzzing sound you hear from Spy Hunter is normal. It's the sound of the motor of the car idle.

-
I have the Droid Incredible and use Intellivision sounds for my notifications.
-
I have a pac-man dieing wav as my ring tone. Made it myself and heard a guy at brunch last week with the same ring tone, lol...
