Off the top of my head, my top 3:

1. PS1
2. Original XBox
3. PS2

PS1 and 2 sound so artificial but in a good way: they were machines/computers so of course they made machine/computer-generated sounds. Original XBox also sounded very artificial but also had the cool graphic of a green energy orb. The orb seemed to threaten to go nuclear before the XBox logo appeared as if sealing it away ready to use that sealed power to deliver some cutting-edge, heavy-duty gaming.

Gonna go through other start ups posted in this thread later, my interest is piqued.
