This sound is associated with treasure chests and item discoveries in The Legend of Zelda games, where a short opening cue and fanfare mark an important find. Online, it spread far beyond gameplay because the audio instantly communicates reward, discovery and a slightly overdramatic sense of value. Editors still use it for meme reveals, collector finds, thrift store scores and fake legendary moments because even people who never played Zelda often recognize the emotional beat.
