Check Mii Out

Nintendo's "Check Mii Out" Wii channel is up for free download. I just dumped my BSG and American-politician Miis all over it, and they are now dancing amongst the 1,000,001 Chuck Norris/Darth Vader/Mr. T ones that others have already uploaded. The best of which are actually quite clever, and which I grabbed my own copies of. I laughed out loud at the ingenuity of the Robocop, Mr. Spock, Geordi La Forge and Some-Guy-With-a-Bear-Head ones.

Apparently, of my collection, my Bill Adama Mii has received the most "I like this" votes so far. It and my Laura Roslyn Mii are my two favorite creations. I think Laura is actually my personal favorite, but I can see any population of video gamers favoring ol' Bill. (In my version he is sporting his Flashback Mustache.)

If I knew how to link to my entries I would, but I'm guessing there's no easy way. Nintendo continues to favor the isolationist approach to online play. Meh!

Any idea how wide the region is in the "Regional" setting?

You're right there are some really well done ones out there. I can't stand Jack Black, but, wow, his Wii was great.

I infer that region is country-based, and possibly continent-based, at least for us (North) Americans. Nintendo's been using this sort of scheme since they launched their internet play with Mario Kart DS two years ago.
