| In ''[[Rhythm Tengoku]]'', each practice uses one of three variations of a single song (called "Tutorial Music 1", "Tutorial Music 2" and "Tutorial Music 3" on the ''[[Rhythm Tengoku Complete Music Collection]]'' soundtrack) as well as a few game-specific practice themes. The practice itself will present the player with each cue in the game, and the player only needs to do a set successfully in order to advance.

| In ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]'', every single game, regardless of origin, uses a chiptune version of their song during their practice and also need a few completed sets with a counter to advance, much like in ''[[Rhythm Heaven Fever]]''. The original practice theme is nowhere to be found in this game. Similar to the Demonstrations, this game will show a {{Nihongo|Rhythm Help Display|お助けリズム表示|O Tasuke Rhythm Hyōji}} of the current set if the player spends too long during the practice, showing exactly how the player is supposed to play the set. Games without a practice are distinguished with a plate reading "No practice" in their description. | | In ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]'', every single game, regardless of origin, uses a chiptune version of their song during their practice and also need a few completed sets with a counter to advance, much like in ''[[Rhythm Heaven Fever]]''.

| ==[[Karate Man (Disambiguation)|Karate Man]]==
| |
| In the ''[[Rhythm Tengoku]]'' version of ''[[Karate Man Returns!|Karate Man]]'', the game's practice starts off by asking the player to hit 3 pots without providing music. After doing so, the next set asks the same thing of the player, however this time the pots are timed to a jingle (which is used again at the very end of the game). After doing so, the real game begins. Interestingly, the "Hit 2!", "Hit 3!" and Flow Meter mechanics are not explained during the practice. [[Karate Man 2 (GBA)|Karate Man 2]] and [[Karate Man Tempo Up!]] do not have practices. The [[Karate Man|short version of the game]] in ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]'' is also short, being only one set with one pot. It doesn't explain the "Hit 3!" cue which also appears in the game. [[Karate Man Returns!]] does not have a practice.<br />In the ''[[Rhythm Heaven]]'' version of ''[[Karate Man Kicks!|Karate Man]]'', the player first practices a set of pots, ending with a "Hit 3!", with the caption "Tap to punch and send things flying, karate-style!". In the next set, the player must kick without anything flying at them and without any music. The caption reads "After tapping to punch, hold and flick to kick. Try it on your own." After performing four kicks this way, the player moves on to the next set. Here, the player does a set of pots including a barrel with a bomb inside (which unlike the real game has the word "bomb" with an arrow pointing to it) at the end. The caption is "Coping with Bombs When you hear me say "Punch, kick," punch and then kick!". Interestingly, this set starts with no pots flying in, then a lone "Punch, Kick!" voice clip, after which the set starts for real. The next set is comprised of a pot, a "Hit 3!" and two barrels. The caption is "You may have figured this out, but watch out after those lightbulbs." After this set, the real game begins. [[Karate Man 2 (DS)|Karate Man 2]] does not have practice. The ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]'' version of the game shortens it, the only set includes a pot, a lightbulb and a barrel. The caption reads "Press and hold A to break the barrel... Then release A to kick the bomb away!"<br />In the ''[[Rhythm Heaven Fever]]'' version of [[Karate Man Combos!|Karate Man]], the practice is played in a similar order to that of ''[[Rhythm Heaven]]''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s version. It begins with a set of pots ending with a "Hit 3!", the caption reading "Press A to punch the objects flying your way." In the next set, the player is asked to perform a combo five times without any things to punch or music. The caption is "To do a combo, hold A and B, then release." The next set is comprised of a pot, a light bulb and a combo. The caption is "Watch for lightbulbs!" after which, the real game begins. [[Karate Man 2 (Wii)|Karate Man 2]] does not have a practice. Interestingly, the ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]'' version of the game is kept unaltered, aside from the second caption being changed to "Hold B to start the combo, and release to finish." due to changes in controls, and the third caption being changed to "Get ready when you see a light bulb!"<br />The practice for [[Karate Man Senior]] begins with two groups of multiple punches ending with a single rock. The caption is "Press A to punch." The next set is identical to [[Karate Man Kicks!]]'s practice, with the caption "Hold A to punch. → Release to kick! (The yellow light bulb is your cue.)" The next set is the same as [[Karate Man Combos!]]'s practice from the second set onward. The captions are "Hold B to start the combo, and release to finish." and "Hold B to start. → Release to finish. (The blue light bulb is your cue.)" Interestingly, the presence of single pots and the timing for the combos in the practice don't match up to what is present in the real game.

| |
| In the ''[[Rhythm Tengoku]]'' version of ''[[Rhythm Tweezers 2|Rhythm Tweezers]]'', the game's practice starts off by asking the player to pluck out 4 hairs in a row on the vegetable's face while the practice music is played.

After doing so, the real game begins. [[Rhythm Tweezers 2 (GBA)|Rhythm Tweezers 2]] and [[Rhythm Tweezers Tempo Up!]] do not have a practice. The [[Rhythm Tweezers|short version of the game]] in ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]'' uses the same sets, except for the curly set as it does not appear in this version of the game.
