Nintendo: Miis only for me

Filed in archive Wii on March 1, 2007

Here's a shocking bit of news: Nintendo, known throughout the alpha quadrant for keeping secrets from third-party developers and even their own grandmothers, are keeping the tools to use Miis under wraps. That means no third party games will feature the customizable avatars in the near future. While the cutesy little characters would probably look a might out of place in, say, Red Steel or Call of Duty, games like EA's upcoming MySims seem perfect for the integration. Apparently Nintendo isn't budging for the time being, so only their games will feature the happy people you spent so much time creating. Sorry Mr. Bean, Albert Einstein, Hitler... you're confined to Wii Sports for a bit longer.
