In Super Mario World, Yoshis can spit out fire while in possesion of the Red Shell.
In the Mario Kart Series, they can home in on the opponent whose rank is one higher than the drivers. Red shells can be picked up in singles or triples, in which case they circle around the kart until all three are fired.
