One of the most popular features of the Nintendo Wii is the ability to create a Mii, a customizable virtual representation of oneself, which can be used in various games. Players can specify everything from height and hairstyle to the size and rotation of facial features. These avatars enhance the user’s participation experience. Instead of controlling a default character (i.e. Mario), a player’s Mii, with actions controlled via the motion-detecting remote, can play tennis, bowl a strike, or battle a boxing opponent. Non-participating Miis who are stored in the system appear in roles such as teammates or audience members. The possibilities are endless, and the creation of celebrity Miis has obviously become quite popular. If you thought your life-long dream of playing baseball with Woody Allen or Stephen Colbert is hopeless, think again. With the Nintendo Wii, you can!
Although it's now the middle of March, we still treat the Nintendo Wii that showed up around holiday time (equipped with a copy of Wii Sports and Guitar Hero III) with Christmas morning-like excitement. To celebrate the presence of this fantastic new addition, we (no pun intended) held a “Does My Mii Look Like Me?” contest. Cast your vote below for the Hannon Hillian who created the most successful lookalike, and and help us decide this heavily contested race.
