Sure, one could.
Granted common side effects are loss of hair, identity crisis, and the hatred of counting walking mechanized explosives.

But sure. He could.

Gender swap Megaman collab. Some of these are so good that I wish they were the actual designs of some of the robot masters while others seem like the artist's mentality was "what's the funniest way I can depict this character having boobs."

I can see why many robots in many sci-fi works are designed to resemble the male body... what's the purpose of robots having breasts? I mean, you don't see robots with balls... so what's the purpose of robots having balls?

They say that bigger is better.

However, I say quantity and quality aren't synonyms... The smaller fruit may be juicier than the bigger.

God forbid Nintendo from not having racial diversity in Mario Kart 8. :rolleyes: sarcasm/

Nintendo of Japan probably doesn't give two rats asses about this. White is better in Japan. They're not gonna create a new character just to satisfy the demands of annoying ******* on the other side of the world. God, I hate when countries try to shoehorn their political correctness into another country that's totally different from them. This may come off as racist but dark skinned characters seem to be more of a "novelty" thing in Japanese games.

Of course if this were about an American company I'd say they'd probably should add diversity. But this is not the case.

Guess I should point this out sometime sooner or later, but from Sunday to Tuesday I probably won't be online because I'm traveling, and i don't know whether or not the hotel room has free Wi-Fi.

Exactly. An American game having that sort of diversity makes sense as there is a lot of variety within the population as it is quite large.

I would imagine the population of Japan is a lot less colourful, it's okay if their products represent that.

Sometimes I envy Japan's homogenous and united population.

I hate to admit it, but sometimes I wish other nations went through what Britain, Germany, Sweden, and some other countries are going through with the diversity thing.

But we're missing the biggest point here.
It's Mario Kart. Why on Earth would you call "racial inequality" on Mario Kart of all things?
