In WarioWare: Touched!, an arrangement of "Drawing Board 1" is one of three playable songs featured on the Turntable souvenir. It is simply titled "Mario Paint". It appears faithful to the original theme until the first loop ends, in which it then turns into a jazzy, big band-style arrangement. Players can reverse or speed up the song by spinning the record on the turntable. An excerpt of this theme also plays in the Mario Paint microgame.
