Giant Dipper @ SCBB lap bars leave about 6inches of room all the way down for me. When I was a kid, every time we had some airtime, I would be standing up completely.
I haven't had a chance to try it out personally but a friend of mine got it and was very disappointed. The combat is really bland and repetitive and the controls aren't that great.
Thank you, I will proboly get him Super Smash Bros or Mario Party 8, he is a huge Mario fan.
