One Final Effort is really hard. Got any good video game songs for learning?

This is the easiest version of One Final Effort I've found. Not super hard, but not beginner level. Keep it and try to play it slowly at first.
As for other video game songs, look into Chrono Cross and Chrono Trigger, older zelda stuff, older pokemon songs. Things like that would be better to start with. Really anything slow that you're already familiar with.
A few of the VG songs I used to learn were

Try to think of stuff like that to start. You can find tons of these easy sheets for free if you look around too. Although I did pay for musescore until they started charging me extra with no warning.
Drag can't get drag's fingers over this part of One Final Effort here
Oh yea that's a tricky one. You want to keep your right hand in the chord shape as you hit each note. There are different ways to do it and it's entirely possible to do with one hand however if you use a sustain pedal you can hold the low note using the pedal and use both hands for the rest.
What's the chord shape? Are you saying to move the hand without moving the fingers?
The E B E section is the most common chord shape you'll see as you learn. It's the equivalent of a power chord on a guitar. If you want to get fast with one hand get used to keeping your thumb and pinky about an octave away from each other. In this instance that means the low E and high E.
Your instinct as you hit each note might be to use your thumb pointer and middle and move you hand but it will help you down the road if you get used to looking at the individual notes as a chord keep you hand in place as you hit eat note in the chord. In this section I would think about it like A B E is one chord. Then E B E is one chord going up then back down with the same fingers then move you hand into a B E B shape to hit the last 2 notes. Does that make sense?
Drag thinks drag gets it, thanks!
No problem dude! Have fun and if you need more advice feel free to hit me up.
Alas, drag never got into JRPGs, but drag will try One Final Effort and your other songs when drag can

You can find simple arrangements of almost anything.
Otherwise just keep at it man. You'll get there if you keep practicing.
