==Arrangements==
===''Super Smash Bros.'' series===
====''Super Smash Bros.''====
''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'' features two arrangements of "Yoshi's Story". The first arrangement is included in the track "Yoshi's Island Stage", which is a medley arrangement of "[[Yoshi's Song]]" which plays in the first part of the track, and "Yoshi's Story" which plays in the second part of the track. It plays on the [[Super Happy Tree (stage)|Yoshi's Island]] stage.

The second is a brief arrangement that serves as [[Yoshi]]'s [[smashwiki:Victory theme|victory theme]] and plays on the results screen whenever Yoshi wins a fight.

The former arrangement returns in several later games in the ''[[Super Smash Bros. (series)|Super Smash Bros.]]'' series. It returns in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'', now titled "Yoshi's Island N64", where it can be played on the stage of the same name that also returns from ''Super Smash Bros.'' It also returns in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]'', now titled "Yoshi's Story", where it can be played on the [[Yoshi's Island (Super Smash Bros. Melee)|Yoshi's Island]] stage from ''Super Smash Bros. Melee''. It also returns in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', now titled "Yoshi's Story <small>(64)</small>", where it can be played on any ''Super Smash Bros.''- and ''[[Yoshi (franchise)|Yoshi]]''-series stage.

====''Super Smash Bros. Melee''====
''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' features two arrangements of "Yoshi's Story". The first is an uptempo {{wp|samba}} arrangement that can be played on the [[Yoshi's Story (stage)|Yoshi's Story]] stage. 

The second is a brief orchestral arrangement of "Yoshi's Story" that serves as [[Yoshi]]'s [[smashwiki:Victory theme|victory theme]] and plays on the results screen whenever Yoshi wins a fight.

The former arrangement returns in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]'', now titled "'''Yoshi's Story Ver. 2'''", where it can be played on the [[Woolly World]] stage, and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', now titled "'''Yoshi's Story <small>(Melee)</small>'''", where it can be played on any ''[[Super Smash Bros. (series)|Super Smash Bros.]]''- and ''[[Yoshi (franchise)|Yoshi]]''-series stage.

====''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''====
Like previous ''Super Smash Bros.'' titles, ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' features two arrangements of "Yoshi's Story". The first is a brief arrangement heard at the beginning of "Ending (Yoshi's Story)".

The second is a new brief orchestral arrangement similar to the one heard in ''Super Smash Bros. Melee'' that serves as [[Yoshi]]'s [[smashwiki:Victory theme|victory theme]] and plays on the results screen whenever Yoshi wins a fight.

The former arrangement returns in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS]]'', where it can be played on the [[Yoshi's Island (Super Smash Bros.
