    Are there any unintentional glitches or shortcuts in the game?

    Yes. Ultra shortcuts bypass the checkpoint system and allow you to skip most of the race. There are also unintentional glitches, like on DK mountain, and unintentional shortcuts like the Mushroom Gorge gap jump.
  • Question
    Do you have to get first place on the 100cc leaf cup to unlock dry bones?
    Community Answer
    Yes, or race in 1,050 races (Grand Prix or VS Race). Battle Mode only counts when getting Mii Outfit B, and Time Trials and Tournaments do not count. You can race in single player, local multiplayer, or online multiplayer. Just remember that this will take a long time, and you should win the 100cc leaf cup if you can't race that much.
