Ok, forgivable on the Wii cause it didn't have the power, but the new HD one should have friggin' arms!) Miis were inspired by Koteshi dolls, a kind of traditional japanese doll mad of wood that doesn´t have arms, just body and head. That´s why Miis don´t have arms. They´d should have imagined, though, that this idea would sound weird for westerners |
Ah, thank you for explaining that. I thought they were just really lazy. (Like the guy who animated Rayman hated drawing arms- but one person can get away with it. But if others copy it, just seems like a cop out. )
I like animae and like to know about all sorts of cultures, includding the Japanese, but didn't know that.
And picture for referance:
