Not what you asked for, but my music taste was shaped massively by Tony Hawk's Pro Skater series
Minecraft by C418 lives rent free in my head. Sometimes i'll start humming it to myself and not even realize
Iwatodai Dorm from Persona 3 Reload was the most recent one that really got stuck in my head, but it happens a lot for me. It’s not always video game music, but probably is a majority of the time.
It's a recent one, but I haven't been able to get Gestral Summer Party out of my head since I first heard it in Expedition 33 last month.
A lot from Undertale. Personal favourite is Spider Dance.
Other than this, The Trumpet 4 is catchy as heck.
Mine Windbag Mine is also incredibly catchy as heck, Darren Korb is super talented.
Everything from Grim Fandango.
Digger (1980's). It used the Popcorn song and nothing beats the Popcorn song.
It's cheating, but there was a track in need for speed carbon that was catchy as hell. Love me or hate me, by Lady Sovereign
Not technically video game music, but it's one of the few tracks in any video game that I went out of my way to find outside of a game.
megalovania is one of the badasses in my book
DuckTales (NES) - Moon Theme. The covers are also awesome.
Old RuneScape Soundtrack: Harmony

The from Yakuza: Like a Dragon has been in heavy rotation on my favorites playlist for a while now.
I just recently finished this one, and The Man Who Erased His Name shortly after that. Apparently I've been sleeping on the Yakuza series, because they're fantastic, and have amazing soundtracks.
The Driftveil City Theme from Pokemon B&W pops up in my mind quite frequently, I'd say its up there in the list for catchiest Pokemon tunes. Honorable mention for Cave Story's Main Theme (the wii version is clearly superior from all others and I will not accept any other opinions on the matter)
The entire soundtrack from FTL is fantastic and catchy and full of ear worms.
OG Super Mario NES, World 1-1
For some reason the SMB2 theme song is stuck in my head all the time. Something about the jazziness of it.
Those first 6 notes of 1-2 tho...
What kind of overalls does Mario wear?
Denim denim denim🎵
This was a triumph...
my hot take is that even though portal is a masterpiece this song is so cringe because i associate it with unfunny "the narwhal bacons at midnight" type redditors

I'm making a note here, huge success....
As far as Pokemon goes, I've always been partial to the Team Galactic battle theme from DPPT. And though "catchy" doesn't quite do it justice, the night theme for Jubilife City, also in DPPT, is tremendous. Walking into that city for the first time at night was one of the defining moments of my video game life.
And the Shiver City theme from Paper Mario is unforgettable.
I don't think anything will ever beat Still Alive from Portal though.
Sonic two when sonic drowns.
Does the Wii shop music count as a video game song?
