The Turntable Toy from WarioWare: Touched!

Turntable is a souvenir that players can unlock in WarioWare: Touched! It plays music. In order to unlock it, players need to score over fifteen points in Snore Rope. Players can choose from Ashley's Theme, Mario Paint, or Hogan's Alley. Players can reverse or speed up the songs by spinning the record on the turntable.

This souvenir caused controversy surrounding the English version of Ashley's Theme, whose lyrics, when sped up via this souvenir, can be misinterpreted as "I have granted kids to Hell" due to the distortion and skipping caused by the sped up audio. Both Nintendo and Nintendo Power stated that this was unintentional.[1]

The fact that those syllables form the phrase you mentioned is just a (very) creepy coincidence." – July 12, 2005. Nintendo Power Volume 193. Page 12.
