I almost never deviate from my OPL-3 128M soundfont. I have a bizarre fascination with the sound of Windows 3.1/95-era MIDI and I'm completely unashamed at it.

When the Genesis was good, man was it good. Thunder Force IV and Shinobi 3 take the cake for me there. I think Sonic & Knuckles used the same soundfont as Shinobi 3, or had some of the same composers, I'm not positive though... I can kind of hear it though.
But yeah it doesn't get more metal than those two.
For NES, I'll give a nod to Sunsoft's stuff. Blaster Master and Journey to Silius, holy crap.

I'm shocked I found someone sharing this view of mine. Since it might end up derailing the thread, I'd like to know what are your favorites by PM. |

Many (most?) examples mentioned in this thread have nothing to do with sound fonts but are simply instrument definitions. I attribute this to the increasing casualization of vgm terminology along with things like MIDI, wavetable, etc that are almost always used in the wrong context  |

But to say they have nothing to do with each other seems wrong too when you can use samples of those instruments as a sound font, even if the result is not quite the same from what I've heard of for example YM2612 FM.
I guess the term sound engine or sound design could be used instead.

This has to be my favorite, or at least top 5 among conversions from one chip to another. Super Double Dragon on MD:
