In no order, I like:
1. Welcome to your doom / Rise from your grave! (Altered Beast-Genesis)
2. Prepare to qualify! (Pole Position-Arcade)
3. Another visitor! Stay awhile! Stay forever!! (Impossible Mission-C=64)
4. Catch special weapon to increase performance! / Shooting accuracy increases multiplier! (Road Blasters-Arcade)
5. Blast Off! [Actually, more like "Vlasht och!"] (Bosconian-Arcade)
Any fans of Smash TV?

"It's a Me Mario." I will never ever forget the day I got my N64 with Mario 64. What a fantastic way to start a game. And when the strechable picture came, you knew you were getting an all time classic.

I always thought "Fail!" from Smash Bros. was so harsh it was funny.

"I'll buy that for a dollar!" Smash TV
"Black Wizard needs food badly!" (or various other Gauntlet-isms)
"Toastie!!" Mortal Kombat II (Or whatever that was when the developer guy popped up in the corner, but oh well)

Anything in the original PACMAN.
When a boxer falls down in Punchout.
The Super Mario Bros flag fanfare. (being resurected for Galaxy, after rare appearences in NSMB's!)
That piano chord you get for catching a 'negative' fish in Wii Play.

There was a semi-obscure game called "S.C.A.T." for the NES, a decent shooter, but it had the most amazing voice sample at the beginning: "We must destroy them! The earth is counting on you! Good luck!" Clear as day. I was blown away when I first heard that. Others:
-the tone when you pick up a special item in the Zelda games.
-death sound in Yar's Revenge.
-referee's voice in Mike Tyson's Punch-Out!!
-Spanish zombie phrases from RE4 - scares the crap out of me.
-Two-tone Gameboy ping, and the singing "Sega!" at the beginning of the first "Sonic"
Good question.

Berzerk's "QUARTER DETECTED IN POCKET! HUMANOID MUST NOT ESCAPE!
CHICKEN FIGHT LIKE A ROBOT!"- first talking game I recall!
Also the surprising SQISH 'EM for Colecovision, which was not supposed to be ABLE to talk!-" OWCH!" "OHNO!" "WOOPS!"
