==Advertising Jingle==
==Jingle==
Mona's stage in ''[[WarioWare: Twisted!]]'' featured a commercial for Mona Pizza, complete with a long advertising jingle. This jingle was sung almost completely by [[Sal Out]] and featured interludes of "Yum! Yum! Yum! Yum!" sung by the Yum Yums, as well as various comments (some of which were in Italian) from the manager Joe. The latter parts of the song were sung by [[The Dinosaurs|Pizza Dinosaur's employees]] and seemed to advertise Pizza Dinosaur and its devious ways, suggesting that this half of the song was actually part of a separate commercial. However, all editions of the Mona Pizza jingle have included the Pizza Dinosaur segments and thus considered part of the jingle.

The latter parts of the song are sung by [[The Dinosaurs]], who are employees of the rival pizzeria [[Pizza Dinosaur]], and advertises Pizza Dinosaur and its variously shrewd techniques.


The Mona Pizza jingle has now become a somewhat recognizable trait of the ''WarioWare'' series, along with Mona Pizza itself. A subtitled version of it (complete with a picture slideshow featuring limited animation) is unlockable in the form of a secret "Mona Pizza" souvenir in ''[[WarioWare: Touched!]]''; this souvenir can only be unlocked by playing ''WarioWare: Touched!'' with ''WarioWare: Twisted!'' in the [[Nintendo DS]]'s [[Game Boy Advance]] slot. The song also appears in both English - in an edited version - and Japanese in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', under the name "Mona Pizza's Song". In the English version, Mona's vocals were provided by [[Christina Peyser]], who is [[Ashley and Red|Ashley]]'s voice actress in the ''WarioWare'' series, while the Pizza Dinosaur employees' vocals were done by [[Nate Bihldorff]] and Andy Hartpence. The jingle is also one of the tracks featured in ''[[Donkey Konga 3: Tabehōdai! Haru Mogitate 50 Kyoku]]''.

*The Mona Pizza logo (the picture depicting Mona as a spoof of Mona Lisa) is not present in the Japanese version of ''WarioWare: Twisted!'' and did not appear until the Japanese release of ''WarioWare: Touched!'' It was probably added to the English version of ''Twisted!'' due to the later release and since ''Touched!'' was released prior to ''Twisted!'' outside of Japan.

*Because ''WarioWare: Twisted!'' was not released in China, the "Mona Pizza" souvenir in the Chinese version of ''WarioWare: Touched!'' can only be unlocked with Chinese version of ''WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$!'', and the song is in English, with Chinese subtitles. However, there were no localized GBA games released in South Korea, so it may be impossible to unlock this souvenir in the Korean version of ''WarioWare: Touched!'' in a regular way.
