A rendition of the song appears in Earthbound inside Ness's house, and in Mother 3 near the end of the game when the party takes a boat ride through the Hall of Memories inside Porky's Empire Porky Building, as they pass items from the previous game. It is considered the series' unofficial theme. The song primarily leads with piano and keyboards, but incorporates other instruments such as strings, a trumpet, flute, and harmonica. As with SSB4, this track loops after the 1:46 mark instead of the 3:03 mark as in Melee and Brawl.

Japanese title: SNOWMAN

Origin
As its name implies, this song is a remix of two themes in EarthBound: the music that plays as Ness explores Onett, and the music that plays when Jeff escapes his dormitory in Winters (which itself is an arrangement of EarthBound Beginnings's Snowman theme). These two themes are arranged very similarly to their original counterparts in EarthBound, with slightly higher tempo and more prominent brass in the Onett Theme segment. The beginning of the Onett Theme segment also includes a brief portion of Pollyanna (I Believe in You) from EarthBound Beginnings, which also plays in EarthBound when Ness steps out of Pokey's home into Onett after the game's prologue.

Japanese title:, Isn't This Such a Utopia?!

Origin
This track is a remixed arrangement of two music tracks in Mother 3, those being His Highness' Theme and LOG-O-TYPE. Taken directly from Brawl, this track is most similar to the His Highness's Theme portion of the "From Utopia" track and the LOG-O-TYPE portion of the "Tazmily is the Stage" track on the iTunes-exclusive album Mother 3i. The overall piece is reminiscent of a military march with heavy focus on brass. In Mother 3, this track usually played in the Pigmask Army's presence; the name of this track stems from the Pigmasks' allegiance to Porky Minch. This song was rearranged by its original composer, Shogo Sakai.
