A Mii (ミー Mī) is a digital avatar used in the Nintendo Wii gaming console. They allow users to capture a likeness (or a caricature) of themselves and others. After creating one using the Wii's Mii Channel, they can be used as characters in Mii-oriented games such as Wii Sports, Wii Sports Resort, Wii Fit, Wii Fit Plus, Wii Play, Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games, Mario Kart Wii and other titles.

Wii consoles can store up to 100 Miis, up to 10 of which can be favorites. The Wii Remote itself can hold up to 10 Miis on its internal memory, which can later be transferred to another Wii console. However, they can only be edited on the console on which they were created. In addition, Miis can also be exchanged via the WiiConnect24 service, whereby allowing a player's Miis to "mingle" will enable such Miis to appear on other people's Wii consoles.

Problems

DS/3DS Connectivity

The Mii Channel has a hidden "Connect to DS" mode that allows for connectivity with a select few DS games that support using Miis and the 3DS Mii Maker. Dolphin currently lacks support for connections with a Nintendo DS and Nintendo 3DS.

Transfer Miis

Transferring Miis works only with real Wiimotes. The read/write will vary depending of the bluetooth adapter and stack used, varying between 5 sec to 1 minute sometimes.

Mii Faces

  • The faces of Mii's may randomly lose eyes or other attributes if EFB to Texture is used, refer issue 2112. Fixed by 3.5-429.
  • Mii faces disappear when the code cache is cleared, such as when the graphics configuration tab is accessed, refer issue 5163. Fixed sometime before 3.0-749.

Configuration

This channel does not need non-default settings to run properly.
