It's getting pretty obvious Nintendo overlooked...

[ElvishSpirit]

Miis. (puts on flame-proof undies.)

With M&S At TOG + Mario Kart Wii both using Miis as playable charaters (not to mention how simple they are to use), Nintendo should have definatly taken advantage of Miis and putting them in Brawl, whether customizable, or a Mii exclusive moveset. I'm assuming they wouldnt be THAT hard to program, imo.

Who agrees?

hmmmm....You make a god point.

Claus, Kumatora, Paula/Poo/Jeff, Krystal, Megaman, K. Rool, Dixie Kong, Micaiah, Hector, Eliwood, any other Fire Emblem character for that matter, Animal Crosser, any other third party...I could keep going.

So in summary, it sucks that Mii's aren't playable,

Spoiler

even though I never liked the idea

but if it makes you feel any better, a looooooooooot of other people's expectations were overlooked too.

Edit: Sorry if that sounded harsh or anything, just saying my opinion.

Miis are the very incarnate of awesome.
Unfortunately, since many smashboarders are against the awesomeness of miis, I grant you this flame-proof bra with those undies.

anyway, sakurai didn't include miis because they were apparently too casual. Ironically, brawl was hit with the Casual-bat pretty hard,(or at least, they tried to) game-play wise, so either they were too lazy, or sakurai just has an odd definition of "Hardcore Gaming"

I don't think a Mii would be a good playable character. But I think it would be kinda cool to incorporate them into a stage, like the people in the background of Smashville, that watch you fight or do whatever.

You can use your Mii as your Online Icon.

Not as good as a Mii character, but that's still something, so you can't say Sakurai didn't include them AT ALL.

sorry, i'm not one to wear bras. lol. I could use flame proof boxers, thou.

And hardcore gaming is Chuck Norris vs. Captain Falcon vs. The Burger King "King" vs. DJ Joe Hahn of Linkin Park. Lawl. I'm already pairing up those 4 at the oylimpics. lol

Nah, I assume he just missed the part where Sakurai specifically said he didnt want to use Miis.

I wouldn't mind seeing Miis in Brawl, just not playable. At most I would have them watch you in Smashville or something.

Or better yet, have your Mii act as the online liason. You know, like watch them physically update your FC list or handle your coins while on Spectate. They'd even pop up to alert you your friend just logged on.

 

[GreatClayMonkey]

your ignorance hurts me. A Mii would be just as hard to program as any other character. Why would it be easier you still have to make the model and all the animations. They didn't over look them they choose not to put them in the game

Brawl was more hyped than Jebus Christ coming back to earth. With the huge number of chars left out its isrelievedbecausedidn'tliketheidea no wonder Miis weren't included.

I do like the pop-up thing diabetic Yoshi suggested.
