Since I have no arranging skills at all, I thought I could transcribe some of WarioWare D.I.Y. records. So far, I'm getting the hang of Finale Notepad already. Until I have the skills to learn notes by ear, I'll just transcribe some of the songs.
WarioWare D.I.Y.
9-Volt's records:
"A. Crossing" (https://dl.dropbox.com/u/141393901/A.%20Crossing.mus) - "Animal Crossing on the piano!"
Jimmy's Records:
"Melancholy" (Rough Draft) (https://dl.dropbox.com/u/141393901/Melancholy.mus) - "Fiery tango with a dash of heartbreak"
Easy Breezy (https://dl.dropbox.com/u/141393901/Easy%20Breezy.mus) - "Kick back in the bossa-nova lounge."
The only problem I have is the rhythm groupings. I have no idea whether to use a dotted note, or to tie notes together.

Place your file(s) into the public folder.

Right click on your file and navigate to "Dropbox -> Copy public link"

Paste the link to your thread.
Walk away.
To save Shado the trouble.
If the actual music is written up an octave, then I would suggest you write it that way. However, if you don't want it to go up, then you don't really have to make it go up.
Hmm, I don't understand, that's what I did.
I don't have a "Public" folder and doesn't have a "Copy public link". It has a "share link" option, and that's how I got the link.

Ah, I see. I thought I had a broken link.

The problem is that I don't know how to change octaves. In the song there's an instrument change, so I'm just not really sure if it goes up an octave on the piano. If I knew how to use the 8va/8vb tools during playback, I'd have a better understanding.

Will do. Thanks for being extremely helpful :)
Edit:
I'm not sure how to add the tempo marking (♪ = 180) on the sheet. Also, I'm not sure how to properly put in the copyright and the game title texts on pages after the first.
This will be useful (http://www.ninsheetm.us/smf/index.php?topic=685.0)
Most tempo markings, and default copyrights are only available in Finale. If you ask for a pre formatted sheet here, you don't have to worry about it.
All 3 of my sheets need to be formatted, so that means I would have to ask 3 times to get all of those sheets correct. Now that's just bothersome xP I'll just be patient.

Now there's only 2.
Thanks, you're awesome! ;D
