Your dad sounds just like my mom...
Anyway, from all I've seen about the 4D system, it's somewhat interesting, but I don't see it getting as competitive as the previous systems. They seem to be putting more emphasis on aesthetics than performance...
->Having a metal wheel made out of at least two parts which aren't even interchangeable, just to switch modes, isn't really
that useful. If the Metal Wheel itself sucks, a mode change probably won't make it any better. If the parts were interchangeable though, it would mean more customization and more diversity in the metagame.
->4D bottoms, at least the ones we've seen so far, may be fun to play with, but I don't see them being that useful as well.
For example, F:D is too tall, F:S will probably self-KO or get KO'd easily due to the lack of grip... And during battles the results seem too random.
Just my opinion, of course.
EDIT: To me, the 4D system is just a way of renovating MFB a little, to keep the MFB profits up.
