Super Smash Bros. Melee includes a bluegrass arrangement of the "Athletic Theme" played on banjo with upright bass and bongo accompaniment, titled "Yoshi's Island" and arranged by HAL Laboratory composer Hirokazu Ando. It is the default music for the 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, and in Super Smash Bros.
