Incorrectly assigned Mii gender

It is possible to make the game think that a Mii is male/female when in reality it has the opposite gender. To do this, the player must got to the Mario Kart Channel and change the current Mii with another one with the opposite gender and play a match with it, and then, switch back to the original Mii.

If done correctly, the Mii will now have the body model and animations of its opposite gender (although the voices won't change). Curiously, if the player returns to the character selection screen after playing matches or reseting the game, the character selected by default will be Mario, instead of the Mii character the player has played with. When this happens, the glitch will be fixed automatically.

Incorrect Mii Country

In Time Trials, in the screen with a list of all the ghosts available for a course, if the player quickly scroll up and down between two Miis that have a country flag assigned, these will suddenly change. This is only a temporary visual bug, however.

Ghost Placement Bug

In Time Trials, sometimes it is possible to see the ghosts icons for all the different course records line up vertically, which will also make the player's Mii disappear. This is only a temporary visual bug, however.

Tilt Controls in Third Person View

It is possible to be able to drive using tilt controls in third person view if the player stops in an offroad area and activates the first person camera. After a few seconds, the camera will return back to third person automatically, though it is only possible to drive very slowly while in this view, as driving faster will return the camera back to first person.
