This definitely didn't come from Quake. Dark Castle did this, and that game came out in 1986: https://youtu.be/UndXYYosDk4?t=41 https://youtu.be/UndXYYosDk4?t=

  Not quite the same sound but very memorable. I have it for the Genesis and put many hours into it as kids. Both the sound of the jump and guys waving their arms (nyaaynyana) was engraved in my brain.

  I came here to say the exact same. This doesn't seem to be a particularly well researched article. But note that Dark Castle doesn't make any sound on jumping -- it makes a sound (often) on completion of the jump. I presume that still counts.

  There used to be a video game database that tried to catalog firsts. It was almost always wrong because fans would put in their faves and not know the history. One example I remember is the claim that Sonic was the first character with an idle animation. Plenty of examples from 10 years before Sonic. Others were things like first game with an inventory. First game to scroll. Someone would always find some older game. Then people would argue about influence or trying to define genres (first RPG, that depends on what an RPG is, etc...)
