Chip tune and 8 bit samples... with Mario Bros samples

I love the sounds that come out of the Chip tune scene. I eventually would like to make a track that uses a lot of the samples but keeps the standard house/electro feel to it. In case you don't know chip tune is a tune that uses old school gaming systems or samples to make music.

Super Mario Brothers Samples - awesome work by these guys

Sample CD companies have created specialist CDs for this scene... it obviously saves a lot of time

Has Gameboy, NES, C64, Atari and Apple II samples
