Cyber Troopers Virtual-On is a game where you pilot mechs and duel with other mechs TO THE DEATH. This concept has been used hundreds of times in many, many games but SEGA were onto something incredible with their duel-stick controlled series.
The soundtrack is wonderfully nineties; all bubblegum pop with dance elements thrown in the mix. Very Japanese indeed but not quite what you’d expect from a game that sees giant robots FIGHT TO THE DEATH. This juxtaposition between gameplay in soundtrack is actually quite funny when you see it in action.
Have a listen to the 1st stage theme. You’ll come away feeling like everything in your life is great:
