I'd like my question answered: What was wrong with Peach's Strikers design?
I think there's a difference of opinion here. Some might like her in her regular dress outfit, others might prefer a more uh,..."racy" look I suppose.
But, those who are concerned that Peach, & Daisy will look too "racy", rest assured, I'm certain Nintendo won't go as far as having the 2 princesses strip naked, or anything. I believe they might just want to modernize it a bit, that's all.
As for the Wii Wheel, I'm glad it's packaged in w/ the game. You could probably get away w/ 85-90% of the techniques in the game using the GC controller, while maybe 10-15%, you need the wheel to perform, or you need the wheel to perform those techniques correctly. Still, I'm glad the wheel comes w/ the game. It'd be a little ridiculous paying 50$ for the game, then another 20$ for the wheel. The wheel may be used in other applications, MK Wii aside. But if it doesn't, that would've been a hefty price tag for an accessory that only gets used for 1 game, especially considering it's only a plastic shell. Despite it being "just a plastic shell", it may actually turn out to be very ergonomic.
& as for "baby" characters, this is only what I would call, the unofficial norm for Mario sports games. I think they make "baby" versions of each character simply to even everything out, so you can play not only the baby versions of Mario, & Luigi, but other characters as well.
