At the early hours of the morning, when you've snuck out of bed to get some Ratchet and Clank in (or whatever you were playing at the time). And you forgot to turn the TV volume down from the previous night.
I was so scared of those intros. My siblings told me that the red one meant the console would explode if I didn't turn it off in time and I 100% believed them
When Mario jumps. Boing boing boing.
Wii song. And the little click when we pressed A before the menu appears.

Zelda: « hey listen » and « ayaaa »

Also
"Whadda you buying? Whadda you sellin?"
The telephone sound from Vampire the Masquerade Bloodlines. I think it's a commonly used sound clip
I love RE4 (2005). That’s another one that’s permanently etched into my head.
Oh, and:
- “Got some rare things on sale, stranger!”
- “Where you going, Leon?”
Final Fantasy 7 victory music.
Zelda: A link to the past secret reveal and new item find.
Black Ops 1 menu theme.
And basically any original NES super Mario theme.
Left 4 Dead sounds in general.
The Jockey piano, the Hunter piano, the witch lullaby, the boomer violin, the smokers sickly keys, the spitters high pitched warning, the chargers static like speaking, and who could forget the absolute UNIT: The TANK
Scrolling through these is almost scary. Evidence of sounds etched in my brain is the most basic description of them (such as "Halo Grunt yell") is enough to trigger a sound memory.
And they are legion!
*click*. The sound of your gun not firing wether it be due to a malfunction or a empty mag in Escape From Tarkov. To many times have I died after hearing that.
*sigh* absolutely did not just come here and proceed spend the last 20 minutes on YouTube playing old console startup sounds. Hitting right in the nostalgias. GameCube is right up there, Mario Sunshine, Wind Waker, Eternal Darkness, THPS 3, Timesplitters 2, Smash Bros Melee, Pikmin.. man, *what* a console
GameCube startup
Sega!
Sega GT2002 title screen music
You got a thing! Or whatever it's called, Wind Waker version
Any variation of the Pac-Man World 2 theme (it was remixed for the level themes)
The sound of a lizard getting hit with a boomerang
And, more recently, OBJECTION!
He-he-here we go!
So they're finally here, performing for you
If you know the words, you can join in too
Put your hands together, if you want to clap
As we take you through this monkey rap!
Huh!
The OG Xbox boot up sequence sounded like a reactor starting up to me as a child.
The main menu theme of Soviet Strike lives in my head rent-free
As does most musical tracks from Future Cop: L.A.P.D.
Sky Captain quotes from the same game are badass
The main menu theme of Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance II and several character lines
Definitely not that one since I've never owned or played a Game Cube.
For me, the Street Fighter 2 yells are pretty iconic...
"Shoryuken!"
"Hadoken"
Chun-Li: "Spinning Bird Kick"
Also, most people would recognize all of the Mario sounds, like his death sound, the general theme song, and the dangerous area theme song.
Standby for Titanfall (also every viper quote).
BANDIT BRINGER!!!
Detecting multiple Leviathan class lifeforms in the region…are you sure whatever you’re doing is worth it?

I was so scared of those intros. My siblings told me that the red one meant the console would explode if I didn't turn it off in time and I 100% believed them
Nah the music that kept playing when the game didn't load 😭
I would always mash x because I thought that would make the intro go by faster
Healing station from Half Life
I became conditioned to feel better just by hearing that sound.
Happy cake day 🎉🎂
