Even though I'm not a big fan of it I would have to go with Sapphire for arcade card. I always thoguht that Valis 1 was slighty better. I'm ont sure what fromat Ys 3 is but I thought that was also really good, just for the soundtrack alone. I kind of did the samething with a few cds games and made soundtracks out of them as well.
