Some tunes we often overlook in video games are the intro themes of publishing/developing companies, and the boot-up themes to various systems. Here is a medley of system boot-ups and company themes that can be recognized by gamers everywhere, and have special importance to me.

Purely for the Konami MGS tune
Though the PS1 theme was suitable epic, which seems to be lost on the later consoles, and would have liked the Amiga CD32 boot up too!
