Could be a console startup, title screen, intro cutscene, etc. I just got wired off an energy drink so I apologize in advance if this post is unhinged.

I personally associate it with Kirby Super Star’s intro, the Sega CD boot screen (non-US, I associate the US ones with Christmas), and the original Xbox startup.

PS1 intro screen. Mainly because my PS1 sucked since it was second hand and I had to restart it a lot.

Kids these days will never know the relief of hearing the swooshing sound when you finally see the Playstation logo after praying for a disk to read

God, yes. Keeping your fingers crossed the whole time.

That was me and Jak 3 on PS2. It was a copy a friend had let me keep because I kept playing it all the time at their house. It was scratched a bit so every often it just wouldn’t start.
