Twin Cobra (PAL) SEGA Mega Drive Complete Soundtrack CD
14PAL 50Hz
Toaplan developed many of their own arcade shooters on the Mega Drive/Genesis many of them are simply great! This title however ''Twin Cobra'' was developed by a different team on the Mega Drive/Genesis despite being a Toaplan shooter. It was also only released in Japan, North America and Brazil so no official PAL version was released.
What you're hearing here is the Genesis (U) rom played back on a PAL 50Hz Mega Drive which is running at a slower tempo. It's fair to say that this is not the intended speed as there is no official PAL version, but even if there was an official PAL version the music would have probably ended up sounding exactly the same as in this video.
This game also uses yet again another custom sound driver for the system, at first listen you'd swear the music was using the more common SMPS 68k or SMPS Z80 but no, it's another near identical driver called GRC/Hiroto Kanno. This sound driver was also used in the game ''Trouble Shooter''.
Twin Cobra has that FM Toaplan rockin' Mega Drive/Genesis sound and it sounds pretty good in 50Hz.
Recorded from an original PAL High Definition Graphics VA5 model 1 console and recorded onto a blank audio CD-R recordable compact disc and streamed back through the Mega-CD attachment.
