    They've been around longer than the announcement of the Revolution, never mind the decision to rename it the Wii or to have Miis as part of their service. In fact, I'd say they came out around about the time the GameCube was launched, roughly (that might be a slight exageration, but yeah, fucking years).
    I think it originally was thought up following the release of the DS.

    There's pictures of a DS Mii game online that was never finished.

    So I guess now that it has been established that AOL was actually first, are we now supposed to boycott Nintendo instead?

    No. Because Nintendo is cool. It's ok to steal stuff if you are cool.

    ...and I thought of how all those people died, and what a good death that is. That nobody can blame you for it, because everyone else died along with you, and it is the fault of none, save those who did the killing.

    It's not like the Miis are a work of art either.

    If it is 2D and looks like something I could improve greatly on with 5 minutes of photoshop, I don't want it representing me online.

    It's like a sprite but without the justification of small resolution or reduced color palette.

    It is basically the crap from Gaea online except without the retarded community.

    Its not like nothing ever on the internet has allowed creation of a cartoonish avatar, the only real problem with it is i could see the name being an issue.
