It was later re-released for the [[GameCube]] alongside ''[[Dr. Mario 64]]'' (labeled ''Dr. Mario'') and ''Panel de Pon'' (the original version of ''[[Tetris Attack]]'') in the Japan-only game ''[[Nintendo Puzzle Collection]]'' in which a story mode is added. Though it is not a puzzle game, the mini-game ''Egg'' found in ''[[Game & Watch Gallery 3]]'' is somewhat similar to ''Yoshi's Cookie'' as it also involves [[Yoshi]] eating cookies falling from the sky. Also bearing similarity is the mini-game ''[[Mario's Cement Factory]]'' found in ''[[Game & Watch Gallery 4]]'', where Mario creates the Yoshi's Cookie cookies instead of cement in the modern version. The stage from the game also appears in ''[[Tetris DS]]''. | ||

The object of the game is to clear the stage of cookies, which appear from the top and the right of the screen. To clear cookies, the player needs an entire row of the same cookies either horizontally or vertically. To move the cookies, the player has to press A on a cookie and press a direction on the directional pad. Depending on the direction the player presses, the row the cookie is on is then moved either vertically or horizontally. There are six types of cookies: heart cookies, sunflower cookies, green cookies, checkered cookies, donuts and [[Yoshi Cookie]]s (shaped like [[Yoshi | [[File:Yoshi's Cookie screenshot.png|thumb|left|Gameplay screenshot from the Nintendo Entertainment System version]] | ||

*In the NES and Game Boy versions, there was a cutscene at the title screen where Mario would walk onto a screen with a jar of cookies. He would then try to open it, to no avail. He then gets an idea and walks off the screen. Yoshi comes up soon afterward and eats the jar whole. Mario then reappears with a hammer and begins chasing Yoshi off the screen. Later, he returns back on screen holding the cookie jar, which was empty to begin with. This, however, bears no influence on the game itself. | *In the NES and Game Boy versions, there was a cutscene at the title screen where Mario would walk onto a screen with a jar of cookies.
