The Legacy Music Hour #118: Power Pad Games

Power Pad games are the focus of Episode 118.  Originally manufactured by Bandai and called the Family Trainer (or Family Fun Fitness in North America), Nintendo purchased the rights to the NES accessory and rebranded it as the Power Pad.  There are eleven games total that came out for the Power Pad, and half of them were only released in Japan.  Almost all of them were developed by Human Entertainment.  Anyway, this is a very niche category for the Legacy Music Hour, and at one point, it even becomes more specific as a Meiro Daisakusen focus.  But neat music all around.  Full track listing below.
