	Quick start	Rating: Pending
	Press A to accelerate at the instant between the dimming of the second light and the flashing of the blue light at the start of the race. Performed correctly, your kart will rapidly accelerate ahead of the other racers. Note that accelerating too soon will result in a spin out. Hold A for the first two lights at the start of the race. Release the button when the second light dims. Press A at the start of the third light as if you were getting the boost start. This should make you spin out while getting a boost start.

	Item select	Rating: Pending
	This trick is very useful in battle mode, versus mode, and grand prix. While controlling your character, drive into an item box and immediately pause the game as soon as the items start to change in the box. The roulette action of the items will stop. Resume the game and immediately press Z or C-Down. The box will usually stop on the item after the item that was displayed on the pause screen. Keep spinning or, if you are lucky, land on the item that was on the pause screen. Just take some time to study the order in which the items appear to select the desired item.
