Quest Complete Jingle

I was watching a speedrun of MDK recently and heard a familiar little diddy (you only need to watch a few seconds):

MDK is a great game and was released almost two full years ahead of Everquest [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I realize that the jingle in MDK goes up slightly at the end so it isn't 100% the same, but the similarity is staggering.

Have there been any other sightings of this mystery tune in other games/media?

I'm pretty sure someone posted that the "DING!" (level up) sound has been spotted elsewhere... but damned if I can think of how long ago that got posted now [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Off-topic slightly but its funny how WoW players used to say "ding!" in a public channel when they leveled up, when the leveling sound there isn't a ding at all :/ [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Nice find anyway, very similar [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I think its just a generic "Ding" sound honestly.

I remember the post swish is referring to and I swear someone said that it was also found as a stock .wav file in like earlier versions of windows.

I've also heard the cleric heal spell noise in tv adverts/programmes I'm sure of it !

You can hear the Ding! noise in one of the episodes of Bubble Guppies...which is on a never ending loop at my house >.<

I've heard the Gfay/Ambient Forest sounds (Some bats and other nightly noises) in other games/shows, though at this time I can't exactly specify where I've heard them, and remember thinking, "Damn, they stole that from EQ!" at first.

After hearing it a few times in different games/shows/movies I figured that it was a generic sound file for entertainment purposes, sort of like the Howie Scream used for the Starcraft Terran Academy sound.

There was an episode of Law and Order: SVU where this little girl got raped and murdered outside of her foster home, and they suspected her foster brother of doing it. The first time you see him he's playing on his computer and you hear a very distinct da-da-daddle-dee-daddle-da-deee and you know right then and there he definitely did it

Heard the Ding sound in Scooby Doo Episodes.

I've experienced this sort of thing as well, but in my case it was the sound of the little baby mushrooms in Dark Souls on a commercial or something. I heard it from across the house and since I was playing Dark Souls religiously I recognized it immediately. It was a loon sound that they used for the mushrooms. But it was the exact sound file.
