You may have seen people saying that you need Action Replay to play as Shy Guy. That is not true. All you have to do is download the game from another person, and you will be Shy Guy. There are some disadvantages, though. You cannot choose what color you want. It is chosen randomly. If you play as Shy Guy, you cannot play all of the courses. In VS mode, you can only play 100cc, and the only cups you can play are the Mushroom Cup and the Shell Cup. In Battle mode, you cannot choose the course. It is randomly chosen. You can only play Nintendo DS, Tart Top, and Pipe Plaza. However, if everyone has the game, you can play all of the courses Player 1 has unlocked, all of the engine classes, and all six battle courses.
