A lot of legacy games bring me back because of their background music and/or soundtrack. Some of my favorites include
Strider
Vectorman
Toe Jam and Earl
Sonic 2
Gain Ground.
Most of these came from the Genesis. What are some of your favorites?
This topic is locked from further discussion.
A few of those do it for me, and they're pretty much all NES games:
Platoon, Defender of the crown (The C64 versions)
Golden Axe, Terminator and Chuck Rock for the Genesis.
Journey To Silius on the NES.
Lost Patrol, LotusTurbo Challenge IIand Agony for the Amiga platform.
SMB soundtrack is obviously a classic as well.
Journey to Silius has one of the best NES soundtracks ive ever heard, its amazing what they managed to get out of the NES sound system. the background music of Golden Axe brings alot of memories because its one of (if not the) first game I ever played. other games include Jazz Jackrabbit Aladdiin (PC version) Final Fantasy 7 Starcraft there are a few others.Platoon, Defender of the crown (The C64 versions)
Golden Axe, Terminator and Chuck Rock for the Genesis.
Journey To Silius on the NES.
Lost Patrol, LotusTurbo Challenge IIand Agony for the Amiga platform.

Just to name a few:
Do licensed soundtracks count too? If so, then I'll also add:
FF7 & FF6
Outrun (ideally the music tape that came with the Commodore 64 game tape, otherwise the Mega Drive version)
Streets of Rage
Street Fighter 2
Mario Kart 64
Lemmings (Amiga version)
Even though it's only one track, the title screen music to Lotus Turbo Challenge 2 on the Amiga deserves special mention. - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LQSsq7HCNHw
Theres probably a lot more but it's probably best I stop there. :P

I actually named a song after that game on myfirst solo album, I'll post a pic of the cover soon. It's got nothing to do with the game's soundtrack. It's an instrumental song. I didn't have a title, so I went for "Journey To Silius" just because I love the game and the title is kind of mysterious, if you don't know about the game.
