Mii Spotlight: 'Cause you're ugly

Posted Jul 7th 2007 6:00PM by Alisha Karabinus

Well, you're not ugly, but there are a lot of ugly Miis out there. We just can't resist moving facial features around and into places they're not supposed to be. Sure, sometimes you do that and you get Admiral Ackbar, but other times, it looks more like what's under the hockey mask in the Friday the 13th films. Not pretty.

But even ugly Miis need a little time in the spotlight, so we're dedicating this week's edition to the worst of the worst. Check out the parade of awful after the jump!

Mii Spotlight: Remember to send us those Miis!

Don't forget -- we've got two Mii requests for anyone who'd like to be in our weekly Mii Spotlight. Send us your ugliest Miis, the worst you can manage to make (funny is a bonus), and we also want reader Miis for a special edition Mii Spotlight. Don't be shy! Snap a few pictures and send them to us at mii at nintendowiifanboy dot com.

We'd also like to ask: what challenges would you like? Television show casts (old and new), or cult movie characters, or ... what? Suggest it and we'll see about making it happen. There was a suggestion around here about requesting Welcome Back, Kotter Miis, and that made us think maybe what we really need is Travolta-through-the-ages ... but we're not sure our Mii Plaza can handle a disco inferno turned hitman.

Mii Spotlight: All Eyez on Mii edition

Now that we've introduced our Mii Spotlight feature and its star-studded cast, we're just about ready to get this party started -- this gangsta party that is. Before we start gettin' low and backing our things up though, don't forget that we're still on the lookout for new and exciting Miis! If you have any that you'd like to share, especially if they're music-themed like this week's collection is going to be, take a few pics and send them to mii at nintendowiifanboy dot com.

So what's the rapper to non-rapper ratio in your Mii Plaza? On my console, it's an easy 3:1. I created most of the hip-hop cartoon figures out of boredom, but there's a number that were produced for the specific purpose of motivating other Miis to throw their hands in the air, waving them as if they didn't have a care in the world. Jump past the post break for some of my favorite rapping Miis and submissions from our own talented readers!

Mii Spotlight: The inaugural edition

We're test-driving a new feature here at Wii Fanboy, but there's an essential element we lack, and that's your participation. See, we know that Miis are the hotness and no one can resist twisting the system to produce Admiral Ackbar, but we want to see what you have to offer. Who lives in your Mii Plaza? This is your chance to show off all your hard work. Just send pictures of your best Miis to mii at nintendowiifanboy dot com, and the best of the best will appear right here in the Mii Spotlight on Saturdays.

But don't just send any old Mii; everyone's seen the title character from V for Vendetta, and we've all seen Peter Griffin and the cast of The Office. Send us your creative Miis, or even just the Miis you made for yourself and your friends, perhaps along with a picture of the real deal. We want to see how good you are at making Miis.

After the jump, we've got a few examples from around these interwebs, as well as tools that may help in the creation process.

Because Miis needed to be creepy

Webcomic Dueling Analogs has the proud distinction of being responsible for the most disturbing use of Miis that this blogger has seen to date. Of course, when you put it that way, we're not sure it's really much of a "proud distinction," is it? Well, whether it's merely a little weird or laugh-out-loud funny, they're using Miis in Friday comics this month.

It's the Mii Plaza background that makes it work. We always wondered just what it was those little guys were chatting about ....

Making random Miis has turned out to be one of the most fun -- and most infectiously popular -- aspects of wasting time with our Wiis, so it was only a matter of time before someone dedicated web space to Mii creations great and small. Some of the Miis we've seen lately would fit right in at MiiPlaza.net, a new site that is slowly beginning to expand its Mii population. They're still working out the kinks, but the site has some interesting Miis and a lot of big plans, so check it out.

Made any celebrity Miis yet? We're still working on perfecting Miis of friends and family, but we love to hear about your adventures in the Mii Channel.

[Thanks, Jeff!]
