Ai Yamashita received two significant roles prior to working for Square Enix in 2005. One of these was on behalf of Nintendo, where she composed the score for the GameCube's Nintendo Puzzle Collection in 2003. Also in 2003, she worked as the composer for the Game Boy Advance's Harvest Moon: Friends of Mineral Town, creating twelve tracks that suited their purposes well.

A recent work was as one of numerous composers that worked on the bizarre and light-hearted Hanjuku Hero 4 -The 7 Heroes- ~Sound Collection~. She created the original compositions "Dreaming of the Lost Kingdom" and "Praying for Prophecy," arranged Nobuo Uematsu's "Into The Darkness," and produced an Arabian arrangement of the 'Egg Musical Dance'.

In 2007, Yamashita scored the Internet Explorer game Elebest developed by Square Enix subsidiary Taito. Her co-composer was Square Enix's quirky sound editor Masayoshi Soken.
