Nation Song Contest: Video Game Music Edition - Results

[Sean]

Let's slow down a little. With only one voter left (Giggshood), victory is still within grasp for the top 3 nations. Noizeland, Tír an Abhainn and Swelatie.

How are you doing, Natia?!

Slow down by how much? I'm ready for a 2033 winner announcement

Giggshood... I feel like maybe TaA wins this?

 

[Fearnavigatr]

Aren't Giggshood's votes wonderful?
Well some of them anyway...

7 Belvist

6 Mooseland

5 Orovoda

4 Fervorosia

3 Cydoni-Gibberia

2 Starsky

1 Ametan

So far Erika is ignoring the top 3. What's gonna happen? ​

 

[pyryniemi]

Waited 12 years to finish last

 

[takeru]

I think Noizeland has it

 

[Fearnavigatr]

Don't mind me, just soaking in the last few precious moments of these 12 years...

[Sean]

Omg, it's finally happened

Congratulations Noizeland, a very deserving winner Thank you for a wonderful 6th place, the song still holds a strong bond with me even 12 years later!

 

[Sean]

And a fantastic, exceptional hosting Jochen, el congratulazion!!! xfruit

 

[berlyda]

Congrats Sigi! Very deserving win. Looking forward to a trip to Noizeland in the near future

Is this really happening? ...I can host the next 9-years- video game edition if I win.

EDIT: Also, I love the '255/21' detail haha. Fantastic results show all round. Jochen would make a great ESC host.

 

[takeru]

Congratulations Noizeland!!
What an epic journey, with a perfectly iconic winner to celebrate the legacy of videogame history, for the 23 years when it was first entered, plus the 12 years since!

Joch, thank you for hosting this here and now. It really was an epic way to bring it back with all the videos and song reminders, and so exciting to see all the NSCers rally around this little old spinoff.

Thanks all for 13th place

 

[Lenalite]

Good job Ugly TV - such a lovely production/hosting!

Even though I wasn't around back when this spinoff was taking place, I know it is an iconic piece of NSC canon. So lovely to see it finally resolved!

 

[Veliky]

The people from Orovoda, not fed for a decade, are weakly celebrating about this result, while still waiting for food shipment from Kamandé (which will never arrive).

And they are bowing to the fun and sleek presentation of Ugaly's delegation!

 

[Fearnavigatr]

Killing this ghost of my past has been incredibly emotional, I'm still processing all of this and will give a more extensive and detailed host-bowing-out post later. For now, here's a final bonus for tonight, the full-size versions of all the scoreboard icons:

Yeah, I cheated, this image is not from Brawl, Ashley wasn't introduced as an assist trophy until Smash 4.

History just happened. NSC is now cancelled.

Here are guest votes from :

12 Orovoda - This was a surprise to me. I didn't expect to hear some acoustic guitar and a flute, but it works perfectly. Gives a nice tropical pacific vibe that seems perfect for sailing to what I imagine Dragon Roost Island is.
10 Ugaly - I'm impressed how the author managed to write a creepy tune on synths like this. Kinda grotesque but in a cool way. And seems fitting for a monster called "Captain Mozarella" lach
8 Starsky - A classic, so good it became brand identity of the series and would be reborn into even greater themes of Oblivion and Skyrim.
7 Zombira
6 UZI
5 Tir an Abhainn
4 Giggshood
3 Ametan
2 Reym-L-Dneurb
1 Cydoni-Gibberia

Congrats Noizeland!

Thanks everyone for the 9th place! (Half the people I'm thanking probably aren't even here anymore but still, thanks!)

 

[Milos-BC]

Wow, what a blast from that past this was!

We did wait 12 years to see the epilogue of this spin-off, but it was well worth it.

Well done @Fearnavigatr , the show was perfect. Really loved the video reminders and the creativity that you've shown there. For all of us gaming geeks, that was a pleasure to watch The scoreboard itself was nothing less iconic.

Thanks to everyone who voted for Belvist, I didn't expect a top 5 finish. This theme is not as recognizable as some other Sonic tunes, but it's my favorite one and I had to send it.

Congratulations on the victory, Noizeland!


Another spin-off like this would be awesome, I agree with @MiraShadowMan .


p.s. And welcome back @MrJadeEwen I hope to see Mooseland back in NSC at some point. No matter how long we old veterans are absent from the contest, sooner or later, even when we are overloaded with RL activities, many of us return to this amazing place where it all started in the end. And this trend should continue!
