Ever wondered how you would look like in a video game? You can have a digital version of yourself custom made to your liking. Now you can actually play yourself on a Nintendo game system. What was once a dream is now reality!

Instructions

Difficulty: Easy

Things You’ll Need:

  • Nintendo Wii
  • Credit Card
  • Internet Access
  • Digital Photo of Yourself

Step1
If you're not a game programmer, obviously there is no way in hell you can custom make your own character, and the limited attributes you get with your wii sometimes makes it hard for you to make a character that looks like you, so the next best thing is finding someone who can do it for you. The following site will introduce you to an amazing store where you can literally have a professional custom make a mii for you:
http://www.miistation.com
Step2
The homepage will give you a step by step illustration of how the procedure works. At the right hand corner, you'll see the "Get Mii" button. Click on that and it will take you to the online form you need to fill out in order to get your Mii.
Step3
For the online form you will need the following: An e-mail address, a payment option, a PayPal e-mail address, a digital photo of yourself, and a Wii ID.
Step4
Now you're ready to upload your information. It will take about 3 days for you to receive your new Mii for your Wii. Once your Mii is done being made it will be sent via to your Wii station.
Step5
Once you get one it should look something like this. Tada!

Tips & Warnings

  • Go check the Mii gallery on the site, so you can get an idea what kind of results they can offer you.
  • Although you can custom make a mii on a wii, there are some limitations and trust me there will be times where you are not able to precisely make the edits to have your mii look even remotely close to you. This is a guaranteed way to make sure the shortcomings are rectified.
  • Also, check another Mii site at http://www.miiplaza.net
