History[edit]

Mario Paint[edit]

Mario Paint marks the first appearance of "Drawing Board 1".

A slower-paced arrangement of "Drawing Board 1" in a lower key plays when the letter P is activated on the game's title screen. It is titled "Title Theme 3" in the Nintendo Music app.

WarioWare series[edit]

WarioWare: Touched![edit]

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 speed up the song by spinning the record on the turntable. An excerpt of this arrangement also plays in the Mario Paint microgame.

“Featuring kitties!”
—In-game description for the "Mario Paint" record

WarioWare: D.I.Y. features two arrangements of "Drawing Board 1".

One of 9-Volt's records is an arrangement of "Drawing Board 1". It is simply titled "Mario Paint". An excerpt of this arrangement also plays in the Mario Paint microgame.

A faithful arrangement of "Drawing Board 1" plays in the graphic editor while editing a game or comic with the title "Mario Paint". This arrangement uses higher-quality samples, but it is otherwise near identical to the first half of the WarioWare: Touched! arrangement.
