Place it at the exact cut where a controller appears on screen, then follow it a beat later with a click nice cue for menu selections. For a fuller console-start sequence, layer a pop sfx underneath the button press itself before cutting to gameplay.
About this sound
This is a 0.4-second electronic chime that plays through the Wii Remote speaker when the controller connects, never on the TV screen. It feels instantly satisfying and nostalgic, like a tiny confirmation that you are ready to play. The clip was extracted from the Super Mario Galaxy 2 game files as CS_CONT_CONNECT.
