I loved how my XBox would turn on and do its 60 second boot sequence every time I dusted it. What a nice feature.

Or when a cat brushes past, in our case.

My dog intentionally turns on my PS4 in the morning. When she turns on the PS4 it automatically turns on the TV and will play the soothing main menu music. We aren't sure if she does it for the music, the light from the TV, or the beeping noise from when you first press the button, but she has been doing it almost every morning for the last year and a half.
