 Hint 1: The said enemy has a lot of axes with him by the game's standard, but it's not like he can throw dozens of them lke they are disposable projectiles. |

 Hint 2: The game has much fewer Western fans than East Asian ones, because it's a Japan-only game. |

Hmm.... Well, let's narrow it down to a choice between less than 10 games then.
Hint 3:
Say, what series have I been really into lately?

Update: you have until approximately 20 hous from now before I ditch this question and replace it with an easier one.
Also, new hint.
Hint 4:
It's on Super Famicom. (If you get what I meant in the last hint, it's practically a one-in-two chance to get this right.)

A-HA! It's one of the two games I mentioned, but it's the other one that is the answer! Axe mania (斧マニア) is an enemy General in Chapter 23 of Fire Emblem: Thracia 776, famous for carrying 5 axes with him: Master Axe (the master series of weapons are the best in this game), Venom Axe, Poleax, Hammer and Killer Axe. Few FE enemies carry 5 weapons, let alone 5 of the same type.  There is an entry in the FE Dictionary Atwiki (Japanese, of course) talking about him. I'll roll out my next (easier IMO, and international) question later on, which will be the last of my series. |

Been too much attached to Fire Emblem 13 that I totally forgot this. Alright then. Listen to this: Link to musicDoesn't this sound familiar? Now, here's the question: What game uses this... as its "mode select" screen music*? It's not a Nintendo-published title, unlike my previous two questions. * Technically, it's not really a "mode" select, but you do hear it in a top-level menu. |

All right, hint time.
Hint 1: Don't think too hard. The game has a very generic title. You might be able to guess it.
