You're small.
It's the weekend and your mom or dad has taken you out to get that game you've been yearning for for what seems like ages. You've heard about it from friends, you've read about it in magazines and now it's here. You have it.
You carry it back to the car in a plastic bag, it's reassuring weight reminding you that you're going straight home to play it for hours. You climb into the car and take it out of the bag.
You scour over the back of the box, reading every little detail, studying those small in game images with fervorous excitement whilst rubbing your fingers against the shrink wrap.
You get home, pop it in and boot it up. The company logos fade in and out. The title screen comes on. A song plays. You can listen to it now as an adult, and you remember that feeling of it all so clearly.
Post that song, /v/.

Well, that summons in me different memories. It was a surprise for my birthday. So I didn't buy it from a store like OP said. Still, I teared up.

I don't think any video game will come close to recapturing this magic.

Kind of off-topic but I really like that mid to late-90's aesthetic of western artists trying to do an anime style.
