The "Hit 3!" cue now has a visual indicator in addition to the voice clip, and the last pot in these sets was changed to a rock. The Light Bulbs now glow yellow (taken from the gameplay in [[Karate Man Senior]]). The bombs also now explode instead of disappearing. | ||
In ''[[Rhythm Heaven]]'', [[Karate Joe]] faces to the left if playing in Righty mode, and to the right in Lefty mode. In ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]'', although all other games returning from ''[[Rhythm Heaven]]'' are based on how they appear in Righty mode, this one has [[Karate Joe]] face to the right like in Lefty mode, and all other [[Karate Man]] games in ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]''. Despite this, kicked bombs fly to the right as they would in Righty mode, rather than to the left like in Lefty mode. | |||

|[[Tsunku|つんく♂]] このゲームの「[[Struck by the Rain|Rainy〜雨に打たれて〜]]」をつくったとき、いい曲ができたし、これは絶対にDS版に入れなきゃダメだと思ったんです。ゲームを通じてたくさんの人が聴いてくれるし、[[generasia:Canary Club|キャナァーリ倶楽部]]にとってもいい話やと思ったんです。曲さえ渡せば、任天堂の人たちが、とても魅力的なゲームに料理してくれるはずやと。それで、とてもドラマチックでカッコイイゲームができるのを待っていたら……「カラテ家」でした。めちゃいい歌詞やのに、「パンチキーック」ですからね（笑）。 | |||
|[[Tsunku♂]]: When I created the song [[Struck by the Rain]] for this game, I thought it was a great song and that it absolutely had to be included in the DS version. I thought that many people would listen to it through the game and that it would be a good story for [[generasia:Canary Club|Canary CLUB]]. I knew that if I gave them the song, the people at Nintendo would cook it up into a very attractive game. So I was waiting for a very dramatic and cool game to be made and it was...... Karate Man. The lyrics are really good, but then there's "Punch, Kick" (laughs). | |||

|[https://www.imdb.com/name/nm10236295/ 小黒] 曲を送ったときに、任天堂さんから「『パンチキーック』って入れていいですか？」って問い合わせがあって、「もしやゃ…？」とは思っていたんです。さらに「つんく♂さんの声で『パンチキーック』もいただけますか？」というリクエストもあって……やっぱり「カラテ家」でしたね（笑）。最終的には、この声は入らなかったようなんですけど。 | |||
|[https://www.imdb.com/name/nm10236295/ Oguro]: When we sent the song, Nintendo asked "Can we include "Punch, Kick"?" and I thought "What if...?" They also requested "Can we also have "Punch, Kick" in Tsunku♂-san's voice?"... After all, it is Karate Man (laughs). In the end, I don't think that voice was included in the final version. | |||

|[[ | |[[niwanetwork:Masami Yone|米]] もともとGBA版の「[[Karate Man Returns!|カラテ家]]」にも、歌っぽいものが入ってましたので、DS版でも新しい歌を入れられたらいいなということだったんです。それに、「パンチキーック」というアクションをやりたいがために、この曲を選んだといってもいいくらいで、そのくらいリズムがビッタリだったんです。あのう…マズかったですか？（笑） | ||
|[[ | |[[niwanetwork:Masami Yone|Yone]]: Originally, the GBA version of [[Karate Man Returns!|Karate Man]] had a song-like tune, so we thought it would be a good idea to include a new song in the DS version. I could say that I chose this song because I wanted to do the "Punch, Kick" action, and the rhythm was so perfect for it. Was I wrong? (Laughs) | ||
|} | |} | ||
==Trivia== | |||
*Karate Man is the last main game in ''[[Rhythm Heaven]]'' before the [[Airboarder|credits]], in direct contrast to ''[[Rhythm Tengoku]]'' having it as the first game. This formula would later be borrowed for [[Karate Man Combos!|Karate Man]]'s appearance in ''[[Rhythm Heaven Fever]]''. | |||
*Unlike in ''[[Rhythm Heaven]]'', the "Hit 3!" and "Punch, Kick!" voice clips are said in English in the French, German, Italian and Spanish versions of ''[[Rhythm Paradise Megamix]]'', despite the song still being dubbed in those languages. This is most likely because the rest of the audio in the game is borrowed from the [[Karate Man Combos!|Karate Man]] game in ''[[Rhythm Heaven Fever]]'', which wasn't dubbed in those languages. | |||
