Create Your Mii!
November 28, 2006 | 18 Comments
Dee posted about this awesome flash based Mii creator that simulates the same functionality as the Mii creator on the new Nintendo Wii. Dee found this to create her own Mii after having enjoyed playing Wii Sports: Boxing at my house. Keep in mind Dee is one of the non-gamer types Nintendo is trying (and succeeding) to reach with this system.
I have to admit, I have spent an embarrassing amount of time playing with Mii characters. In fact, I have spent more time in there then I have on some of my games… With networked friends included, I now have 21 Mii on my system. I’m really hoping Nintendo and third party developers utilize this more frequently, like what is being done with Wii Sports. These simple caricatures add an additional level of fun and immersion that has been entirely unexpected to me.
On a sidenote… can we all agree that the plural of Wii or Mii is like the plural of deer? I think adding the ’s’ is cumbersome and dirty. I’m not the first one to make this observation (Sickr?), but I’d like to propagate it.
