==Arrangements==
===''Super Mario 3D World''===
''[[Super Mario 3D World]]'' features a new arrangement of "The Toad Brigade" titled "Captain Toad Goes Forth" in the game's [[Super Mario 3D World Original Soundtrack|soundtrack]]. The first half of the arrangement is almost identical to the ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' original, but the second half includes a new extended melody heard in later arrangements of the theme. It plays in the [[Captain Toad's Adventures]] levels [[Captain Toad Goes Forth]], [[Captain Toad Makes a Splash]], [[Captain Toad Gets Thwomped]], and [[Captain Toad Takes a Spin]].

A ghost house-style arrangement of "The Toad Brigade" titled "'''Captain Toad Plays Peek-a-Boo'''" plays in the [[Captain Toad Plays Peek-a-Boo|level of the same name]].

The track "Captain Toad's Fiery Finale," which can be heard in the [[Captain Toad's Fiery Finale|level of the same name]], features an arrangement of the main motif of "The Toad Brigade" throughout.

All of these arrangements are reused for the same purpose in ''[[Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury]]''.

===''Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker''===
In ''[[Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker]]'', many of the themes heard throughout the game are arrangements of "The Toad Brigade," including the game's title theme and the main ground theme, and the themes heard during cutscenes.

All of these arrangements return for the same purpose in the [[Nintendo 3DS]] and [[Nintendo Switch]] releases of ''[[Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker (Nintendo Switch / Nintendo 3DS)|Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker]]''.

===''WarioWare: Get It Together!''===
''[[WarioWare: Get It Together!]]'' features a brief arrangement of "The Toad Brigade" that plays in the microgame [[Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker (microgame)|Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker]]. The tempo is slowed down to match the ticking of the [[Bomb (WarioWare series)|bomb]], which increases as the microgame's score increases.

===''The Super Mario Bros. Movie''===
''[[The Super Mario Bros. Movie]]'' features arrangements of "The Toad Brigade" in two tracks: "Strange New World" and "Level Complete." In "Strange New World," an arrangement of "The Toad Brigade," including the extended melody from ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]'', plays during the scene when [[Mario]] first meets [[Toad]].

In "Level Complete," the main motif of the "The Toad Brigade" plays interspersed throughout the arrangement of the "[[Underground Theme]]" from ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' towards the beginning of the track. "Level Complete" plays during the film's credits, and the arrangement of "The Toad Brigade" first plays when [[Keegan-Michael Key]] is credited as the voice actor for Toad.
