====''Super Mario World: Super Mario Advance 2''====
An arrangement of the "Athletic Theme" can be heard in [[Game Boy Advance]] remake of ''Super Mario World'', ''[[Super Mario World: Super Mario Advance 2]]''. This version is much more compressed than the original version and uses different, lower-quality synthetic instruments.

Like the ''Super Mario World'' original, additional percussion is added to the instrumentation when the player rides a [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]].

===''Mario Roulette''===
An arrangement of the "Athletic Theme" plays while playing the main game of ''[[Mario Roulette]]'', an arcade medal game with graphics based heavily on ''Super Mario World'' and the gameplay of its [[Bonus game (Super Mario World)|bonus game]].

===''Super Mario Bros. Mushroom World''===
An arrangement of the "Athletic Theme" is one of the themes that can play while playing the pinball arcade game ''[[Super Mario Bros. Mushroom World]]''.

===''Super Smash Bros. Melee''===
''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' includes a {{wp|Bluegrass music|bluegrass}} arrangement of the "Athletic Theme" played on {{wp|banjo}} with {{wp|double bass|upright bass}} and {{wp|bongo}} accompaniment, titled "'''Yoshi's Island'''" and arranged by [[HAL Laboratory]] composer Hirokazu Ando. It is the default music for the [[Yoshi's Island (Super Smash Bros. Melee)|Yoshi's Island]] stage.

The arrangement returns in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', now titled "'''Yoshi's Island (Melee)'''", where it can be played on the Yoshi's Island stage, in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]'', where it can be played on the Yoshi's Island stage and the [[Super Mario Maker (stage)|Super Mario Maker]] stage, and in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', now titled "'''Athletic Theme - Super Mario World'''", where it can be played on any ''[[Super Smash Bros. (series)|Super Smash Bros.]]''-series and ''[[Yoshi (franchise)|Yoshi]]''-series stage. In all reappearances except ''Brawl'', it is categorized as a ''Yoshi''-series track, rather than a ''[[Super Mario (franchise)|Super Mario]]''-series track.

Additionally, a live {{wp|fiddle}} arrangement of the "Athletic Theme" with orchestral accompaniment is included in the track "Smash Bros. Great Medley" in the ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee: Smashing...Live!]]'' album.
