Yoshi Kart[edit]
Yoshi Kart is a sponsor that appears in Mario Kart DS and Mario Kart Wii. This sponsor appeared in two stages, Delfino Square and N64 Choco Mountain. The first variant from Delfino Square has the company name written in orange and a shadow effect. The center of the "O" in "Yoshi" is filled in with yellow. The background is dark blue with a white diagonal stripe on the left. The second variant only appears on one billboard of Choco Mountain; its design is more simplistic, with a white background, "Yoshi" in blue text and "Kart" in black text. Similarly, a diagonal line strikes through the "o" of "Yoshi", except it is red and thinner. This logo also appears in Mario Kart Wii, which features Delfino Square as a Retro Course. While the logo has the same layout, it was slightly refined, with a more curved font, a black outline and 3D effect and an orange and yellow gradient rather than a solid fill. It is still advertised by trackside banners.
