Mii



Miis are characters in the Wii console; they take residence in the Mii Channel. Miis are based off of human beings and players can design what their Miis look like. Players can make themselves into Miis or make any other person into Miis. Players can make as many Miis as they can fit in the Wii's memory.

The Miis can be used on many video games for the Wii and can even be playable in the game Wii Sports. If the player hasn't created any Mii yet and is playing Wii Sports, the player will play as one of the game's default characters.

Appearances in Mario Games
Miis have first appeared with Wario in WarioWare: Smooth Moves. In WarioWare: Smooth Moves, the Miis star in multiplayer mode and in a few of the microgames. One of the multiplayer modes starring the Miis is very similar to the mini-game Balloon Bang. In Mario Party 8 they are playable characters in the Extra Zone and are sometimes seen in the background of mini-games. The Miis in the game however wear overalls, gloves, and shoes like the Mario Bros. They also appear in Donkey Kong Barrel Blast, Mario Strikers Charged and Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games to represent the player, similar to an avatar. They can also be chosen as avatars for the Wi-Fi mode of Super Smash Bros. Brawl, along with series emblems and the playable characters' icons.
