''[[Play Nintendo]]''. Retrieved May 16, 2020.</ref>) is the third course of the [[Star Cup]] in ''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]''. The course is unique in that it is shaped like [[Yoshi]] himself, making it the only course in the [[Mario Kart (series)|''Mario Kart'']] series to be shaped after a playable character. There are many turns in this course, including a particularly sharp hairpin turn located at Yoshi's "tail". There are also many [[Piranha Plant]]s at the sides of the road, nipping at racers who get too close.

An arrangement of it appears in ''[[Dance Dance Revolution: Mario Mix]]'' under the title "[[Rollercoasting]]". An arrangement of the music for these courses also appears as one of the selectable songs that can be played during events in ''[[Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games (Nintendo DS)|Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games]]'' ([[Nintendo DS]] version), ''[[Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games (Wii)|Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games]]'' ([[Wii]] version), and ''[[Mario & Sonic at the Sochi 2014 Olympic Winter Games]]''.

Yoshi Circuit makes its classic course debut in ''[[Mario Kart DS]]'' as the fourth and last race of the [[Lightning Cup]], as well as the thirty-second and last race of the game overall. Some edits have been made to the course for its reappearance in that game. One of the most significant changes is that the Piranha Plants are no longer in [[Warp Pipe]]s and bite at racers that drive too close, instead being the small, constantly-biting variation that is seen throughout other courses. Another somewhat significant change is that the number of "spines" on the back of Yoshi's "head" have been reduced from three to two. The tunnel shortcut was also removed. Some minor graphical changes that do not impact gameplay include Yoshi's "fingers" not being there, the windows in the tunnel being larger, Yoshi's "cheek" being made of sand instead of water, the helicopter not being present, and the banners near the finish line being removed. The course was available in Wi-Fi.

Yoshi Circuit returns for the second time as a classic course included with [[The Legend of Zelda x Mario Kart 8|''The Legend of Zelda'' × ''Mario Kart 8'']] downloadable content in ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'', and as part of the core game in ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'', as the first course of the [[Egg Cup]] (and in turn the first course of ''Mario Kart 8''{{'}}s DLC overall). Many changes have been made in this version of the course. The "shoe" is now a small town near the starting line, with a dock, several small islands and sailboats nearby. The course banner now resembles an archway connected by two street lights, with two sets of flower bouquets on both sides and an ornament of a Gold Yoshi posing on top of a silver and gold [[Yoshi's Egg|Yoshi Egg]]. Additionally, [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]]s and [[Toad (species)|Toad]]s appear as spectators waving and jumping. A lighthouse appears in the background near the "tail". Some trees appear to have some [[Fruit (Yoshi food)|fruit]]s hanging from them.

The ''Mario Kart'' logo on the starting banner is red and uses the modern design instead of the classic one used for most of the classic courses from games before ''Mario Kart DS''. {{classic-link|GBA|Cheese Land}} and {{classic-link|GBA|Ribbon Road}} also use this design.

The Piranha Plants before and after the starting line have been removed and replaced by tires similar to the ones on {{classic-link|GBA|Mario Circuit}}, while the ones in the "spines" have been re-positioned. The flower patches in the "spines" are no longer blocked off and can be cut through for a shortcut. The Yoshi Helicopter has been replaced by a green [[Mario Kart TV]] helicopter, from the view above the course. The second shortcut has been removed entirely similar to the DS version; this time, the path is entirely blocked with guard rails. The first shortcut now has a waterfall which players must drive through. Players can now perform tricks off the grass ramp at the first shortcut if they are fast enough. The "saddle" now acts as a place to shade spectators. Also, a sign saying "'''Yoshi Tunnel'''" can be seen on both ends of the tunnel around the "nose". The course is more straight, and the dips and inclines at the "spines" and the "saddle" have changed. Red Yoshi on the [[B Dasher]] kart with [[Standard (tire)|Standard]] tires and the [[Super Glider]] is the Staff Ghost for this course. [[Shy Guy|Light-blue Shy Guy]], using the [[P-Wing (kart)|P-Wing]] with [[Slick]] tires and [[Parachute (glider)|Parachute]] glider, is the 200cc staff ghost for this course.

[[File:MKT Yoshi Circuit Scene.jpg|thumb|The course in ''Mario Kart Tour'']]
Yoshi Circuit reappears in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'', starting with the [[New York Tour]]. It mostly takes on the appearance of its ''Mario Kart 8'' iteration (the same applies to [[N64 Royal Raceway]], [[N64 Yoshi Valley]], and [[GCN Baby Park]]). This is likely due to its lack of anti-gravity sections on the course in ''Mario Kart 8''. The ''Mario Kart'' logo on the starting banner has been reverted to its classic one. Most trees have been removed, and the jump near the start of the course is obscured by [[wooden cutout]]s of Piranha Plants rather than a waterfall. Otherwise, the track changes little from its appearance in ''Mario Kart 8''. Despite using its ''Mario Kart 8'' appearance, this course uses the original version of its music from ''Mario Kart: Double Dash!!''.
