Nintendo has finally launched the check Mii Out Channel, a forum for people to show off the Miis they have created, as well as vote on other users creations.
George Harrison, Nintendo of America's senior vice president of marketing and corporate communications, said. "It's yet another way that we're building fun, interactive communities of Wii owners without charging them extra for the privilege."
In the Posting Plaza, users can submit, exchange or just browse Miis posted by others in their region or worldwide. The channel offers the ability to look at a random selection of 1,000 Miis or to see just the current or all-time favorites. Players have a variety of ways to search for specific Miis, including by the name of its creator or by a number specific to each Mii. Once users have found that "special Mii," they can even tag their favorites or import them to their own Wii systems.
According to Nintendo:
The contest section of the Check Mii Out Channel challenges users to submit Mii creations to represent a specific person, character or theme. These could include historical figures (Abraham Lincoln or Vincent Van Gogh), fictional characters (the Tooth Fairy or the New Year's Baby) or descriptive themes ("the biggest bully ever" or "the overbearing boss"). Users can then vote on Miis submitted by others to determine the Mii that best fits the challenge. Each contest will generally last two weeks: one for creating and submitting Miis, and the second week for people to vote on the results.
Finally, the coolest Miis on my Wii will be admired by others. The following Miis will be showing up this evening:
* Ugandan dictator Idi Amin Dada
* Seminal Satanist Anton Salazandor LaVey
* Arthur "Killer" Kane (Bass player of the New York Dolls)
* Supreme Court Justice Sandra Day O'Connor
* Charles Manson
