The jingle comes from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles for the Nintendo Entertainment System, released by Konami in 1989, with music credited to Jun Funahashi and Hidenori Maezawa. In the game it plays after the player clears an area, signalling progress before the next stage begins. As retro gaming clips and nostalgia edits grew online, the short tune became a handy shorthand for success, reused far beyond its original levels. Its bright chiptune sound still works today because it is instantly recognisable and unmistakably victorious.
