Which pieces that have you heard sound similar melody-wise to another piece, video game or otherwise?
For example: The Green Train's Fun, Too! (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gFFNzipmvoY) from Mother 3 and the surfing music (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yMmwi8rDIF0) from Pokémon Black and White
From the same games in the first post: Mother 3's "Theme of Love" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=idULzIIF950) and Pokemon Black/White's "N's Farewell" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DzKRuwKyJmY)
There was some harmony part I learned in the wizard of oz that sounded exactly like the Hive Mecha Theme from Metroid Prime. I have no clue why I noticed that. And, on a random side note, I could faintly hear the college graduation music from my house. I kept hearing a bar or two that made me expect it to turn into the fire emblem theme. I think I need to listen to less video game music. :P
This song is basically these three throughout the whole thing:
Song 1
Song 2
Song 3
Here's one, concerning the one of the motifs first heard at 0:55 in this piece (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VCHE-UPwBJA), and the melody in this guy (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ignJhq8yl7I), starting around 0:15. It's really just the descending triplets that sound similar.
Well of course, who wouldn't want to copy Liszt?
I can't believe I haven't posted this here yet.

So damn true. :P
I'm bumping this guy up because I don't want to create a new topic.
This one, I've noticed for a while now, but it's still pretty neat.
This one's similarities are quite a bit weaker, but I've seen a lot of comparisons between it and the former two.
Here's a good video with some examples of this:
