Right when I stopped predicting it... nice.

Edit: I love Ashley's theme, in either language. The way the blog post is presented gives me hope that both versions of the song will be included in "My Music."

Yeah for Ashley theme, I loved that song in WarioWare. Also Kirby's Final Smash is pretty weird, but neat.

Yeah, I really liked the song in Touched, but this one's much better than that, even. And as a replacement for the DK Rap, it's a godsend.

I'd almost forgotten Kirby's Final Smash was in the original trailer; I was wondering why it looked familiar.

The english verison is ok but (as with almost anything) the Japanese version has a little more charm to it haha.

I wonder will all versions be available for unlocking in the game? =)

Awesome, Ashley theme!

Although I don't like the Us version of Ashley theme, she sounds too old compared to Japanese and Touched songs........

Alright, that's one of my desired songs in...

I'm hoping we can select whatever version of the song we'd like, though...

Can someone tell me if the song is orchestrated or midi? Because I still can't tell the difference.

Still MIDI, sounds like.

EDIT: HOLD IT! If you go to the Japanese section of the site, in the Kirby update, there's a song update on top of the Final Smash one! This has happened before to me, when the Snake codec messages were omitted from the UK update.

I'm sure none of us bothers to check all the languages, but I wonder why Sakurai isn't including parts in one language while they're in others.

By the way. That excessively meaning there is no relationship, it does, but also such a cute tune was prepared.

< You talk! DS cooking Nabi > (0 minute 56 seconds) < Composition & arrangement charge: ? door Tosiyuki > * Copyright of this music reverts to Nintendo Co.

So I guess it's a song from that DS cookbook game Nintendo released in Japan.

I bet this means Ashley is a playable fighter.
I mean why else include her theme song?

She may not be one of the originals but she is one of the most popular of the Warioware gang and would have the most unqiue attacks.

My music.

Seriously, Ashley's  theme could be just one of the bonus tracks for the Wario Ware stage. And I see Nintendo turning all the Wario ware characters into assist trophies.

They took Ashley's theme and completely destroyed it, in BOTH languages.

I saw Ashley's theme and said, "Oh, cool! I wonder how they remixed it. Maybe a nice dark trance or a full orchestral remix...", but no, it's a godforsaken lounge jazz mix, replete with brushes and everything.

What was so wrong with the original? If I'm not mistaken, that was the version which everyone STARTED liking in the first place!

I was wrong: "My Music" was the best update ever because it can hopefully salvage the Wario Ware stage...

I don't know.  I have mixed feeling.  The Japanese Version she sounds to young.  The English Version the voice goes a little higher then I like and the backup isn't done as well.  I hope they do allow for putting different language versions into the mix.

I like that piece thats only on the Japanese site.  I don't see why we couldn't get that as well.

Wow,I am really impressed with the translation for the music.  They captured the voices and feel perfectly without it feeling or sounding cheesy or off.  

I hope that I can collect both versions of the song though.  And I could see Ashley as being playable, as it would be nice to have another girl, and character from the Wario franchise now.  But, more than likely there will be several different Wario tunes from his game for collecting, and even his stage might change music...you never know.

I'd prefer the Japanese piece because I can't understand it...

At least Kirby's final looks good. Does he FORCE enemies into the pot somehow?

This song is the DEFINITION of cheese.

And I'm sorry to crap all over this, but I loved the original Ashley theme and, like I said, it was the music which got us liking the theme in the first place. I was initially glad to see it was back before I clicked the play button.

I don't know who over there thought lounge jazz sounded "spooky" or was in any way appropriate for a spooky song, but he's off his rocker.

I do like ONE thing about it: hearing it makes me want to hit things so it should work well in the context of the game.

Maybe we'll be ultra lucky and the REAL Ashley theme will be an unlockable My Music theme for the Wario Ware stage.

*Shrug* I like it.  I think it fits in its own way but I've never heard the original theme.

That might explain why people don't think differently of it.

The original theme was more of a slow, somber piece and Ashley actually sounded like how she looked.

This remix is bright, upbeat and cheery, three things which Ashley is NOT and her original theme is not.

I'd be happier than a pig in sh*t, had they chosen to use the REAL Ashley theme and not bugger it up with a lousy remix.

I don't remember the tune, either, but I like the English version well enough.  Cheese is good sometimes.  Plus I find the Japanese girl's voice pretty grating.

Ugh, first it was balance, then it was Snake's choke hold, now it's Ashley's Theme...I can't wait for the week of posts this will lead to...

(I'm a huge fan of the original and would be ecstatic if they included both new remixes...Also throw in the original just for completion...)

I prefer the original DS tun eas well, but I can handle this.  And, if any WW characters are playable, it should be 9-Volt.

"And, if any WW characters are playable, it should be 9-Volt."

Both Mona and Ashley are more popular, and honestly would be more interesting characters to play as... =) (And we need more female characters!)

"Does he FORCE enemies into the pot somehow?"

That's how it works in his games, so most likely...

Yeah, I don't like what they did to Ashley's theme.  It just doesn't work, and the singer doesn't sound like a child either.

I love the fact they used a DS cooking game in the JP upate.
