I didn’t make those Miis, other people did, and they auto-populated into my game using Mii Central. It’s also how I ended up with Uhura, Morgan Freeman, and Professor Layton in my party. That’s how I ended up fighting against Dark Lord Trump and visiting towns where I was greeted by Buster Bluth, Mary Poppins, or the Pringles guy. As long as you had SpotPass turned on and connected to the internet, you could pull in Miis from around the world to make appearances in your game.

Even if the fad of making Miis that looked like movie characters, cartoons, and celebrities had died by then, you still had years of creations at your disposal, all ready to be accessed with the SpotPass-powered Mii Central. This resulted in a vast selection of unique and inventive Miis to populate your Miitopia adventure by the time the game released in 2017. Players were encouraged to continue importing or creating Miis with games like Pilotwings Resort and Tomodachi Life, and StreetPass got us outside to trade our avatars with one another. When the 3DS launched with its own Mii Maker, as well as Mii Plaza, sharing Miis became easier than ever before. If you were anything like me, you created an assload of Mii characters, covering everything from yourself to Jesus to Osama bin Laden just so you could knock them out in Wii Sports: Boxing. Think back to when you first got your Wii. It’s quite an eclectic mix, one that was allowed to be as unique as it was because Nintendo put Miis at the forefront of the Wii and 3DS experience. As you can see, I have Iwata as a fabulous pop star, Punch Out‘s Doc Louis as a dainty princess, JJ Watt as a knight, Barack Obama as a fat king, what looks to be Chris Pratt as a prince, and Donald Trump as the Dark Lord. That right there is a quartet of screenshots from my review, back when saving 3DS screenshots was actually doable (RIP Miiverse). When I was preparing to cover the Direct yesterday and the big leak that correctly predicted most everything in it dropped, Jordan Devore posted this picture into our Slack chat: Rather than fill the game with randomly generated NPCs, it would pull Miis from all over and cast them as characters in your adventure. Part of what endeared Miitopia so much to me was how it utilized Miis. I reviewed the original release over three years ago and found it to be a mostly funny and enjoyable experience. Not only will Miis play a central role in the story mode for Mario Golf: Super Rush, but the 3DS sleeper hit Miitopia is coming back this May on Nintendo Switch. Sure, they still play a decent role in Smash Ultimate, but the number of games that support Miis has diminished since Nintendo left the 3DS behind.
After all, it was just over a month ago I was lamenting the lack of Mii games on Switch. I guess I should be happy Miis had a pretty decent showing at yesterday’s Nintendo Direct. Has anybody made a Nicolas Cage Mii on their Switch?
