I always think of the rooster call that's used in Ocarina of time.
There's also a laser beam noise that gets used in a couple n64 games and various other media. And a couple sounds from golden eye that I've heard used.
I can't say for certain, but I think the popularity is probably due to a lot of these reused sounds being part of sound packs and compilations from the 80's and 90's
