Now almost 214 million Nintendo Mii characters worldwide

7th December 2011 – 2011research from Nintendo of Europe has revealed that the total number of Mii™ characters created by players across Europe on Wii™ now exceeds 73.2million* – more than the populations of France, the United Kingdom and Italy or more than Spain and The Netherlands combined. A Mii is an individual, personalised character created to play games on Wii and more recently on Nintendo 3DS™**

The global Mii population is a staggering 213.8 million meaning that if all the Mii characters were to form a country it would have the fifth largest population in the world and would sit above Brazil, Nigeria and Pakistan. The European Mii population is so large that if it was a country of its own it would be the second largest country in Europe after Germany***. Since its launch in 2006, 89.36 million Wii consoles have been sold across the globe****.

As much as I try to avoid spoilers it looks like I’m stuck seeing at least this one, eh? Many people have reported in saying that they experienced a game-breaking bug when attempting a certain quest in Skyward Sword, and now Nintendo has confirmed the existence of such a bug, in addition to detailing the exact order of operations you must complete in order to have it break your game. Details on such a monstrosity after the break!


Have any of you tested the video recording feature as of yet? If so, what do you think?
