I think Yoshi-P said he isn't opposed to it, but his team would have to build actual 'skeletons' the way they did Viera or something (for emotes, animations & armors)-
I'm horribly paraphrasing on what he said but he didn't reject the idea altogether either.
They could use Lalafells just give them a slightly different run animation would be my guess & the way armor fits them would match the Loporrit
And Although we have these creatures in game, they're nowhere near anything playable- similar to the Qiqirn.
They have their own animations, but nothing built for playing ourselves.
I'd be 100% down for playing them though
