Games with cool sound effects when you turn them on

While all my midway games use that generic (but yet so useful) dramatic DOOONNNNG sound to start up, I gotta say I have a soft spot for Namco's boards.. It's kind of hilarious to turn one of their games only to have it suddenly yell out 'GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD MORNING' or 'Good eveninnnnnggg' depending on the time of the day.

I do believe some newer namco titles will even tell what day it is.. as in ' GOOD MORNING, IT IS MONDAY' and such.. Or maybe my memory is acting up.

What are some of your favorite ones?
 
Galaga and Gaplus/Galaga 3 both make the explosion sound on power-up. DK does the Mario jump sound.
 
Spectar makes an explosion

Star Trek plays the coin up music (theme)

Qbert says 'Hello, I'm turned on'

Defender has a nice effect.
 
Weird...my cocktail does the jumping sound, and so does a friends upright (mine has the 4 board set, his has the 2 board set)

mine does that as well.

on other sounds though, mario bros makes a startup sound (couldn't tell you which one it is) if you have the board set to 5 lives.
 
I like the noise Roadblasters makes when you turn it on.

Do any other Atari games make this same sound?
 
Soul Calibur 2 hands down.

"WELCOME TO A NEW STAGE... OF HISTORY!" *dramatic horn flourish*
 
Yeah I love the Tekken 2, 3, and Soul Edge's "Gooooooooood Morning!" I had a Tekken 3 that had a problem and when you booted it up the screen gave a boot error and repeatedly said "Chicken!" (The announcer says "chicken" if you counter a counter)
 
Cheyenne when you power it up it has a cow sound that moo's or Michael jackson's Moonwalker when you add credits it has michael's voice going waaaa hooo! everyone get's a kick when they here that.
