Was there really an amusement machine that made this noise?

I can vaguely remember when I was about 4 and I went to an amusement arcade and stood next to this pinball game and it went ARRRRRRR! in this high pitched voice and made me jump and cry. Then I can remember another one doing it that one of my parents was on. It was a racing car game. I wonder if there were amusement machines that made that noise or if it was all in my mind or even if I dreamt it.
