Actually, now that I think about it, I do remember at some point reading about the "trick" of switching all the CPUs to human players on the last turn of the game, so that after the game was over you would collect all of the coins/stars the CPUs had gathered.

But this was years after I'd basically finished my time with MP1, so I never put this to use.

Pretty much the least time consuming way to get Stars and Coins since you can tell the game to skip CPUs playing mini-games. I remember occasionally watching the CPUs play and swapping controls so I didn't have them waste coins on boos.
