If you don’t have a Wii, you might not understand what’s going on today. But if you don’t havea Wii, you need one. I have a blast whenever I get that (all too rare) opportunity to actually play.

When you have a Wii, you get to create a Mii, which is supposed to look like you. But you can create lots of Miis. And the tool for designing Miis has its limitations, but it allows you to do some cool things by thinking about things differently. I decided to do a Mii dog. I couldn’t get this right at first. But then I realized that by rotating, enlarging and separating the eyebrows, I could make ears. And I could use the sunglasses to create that cartoony dog muzzle. And a moustache for the nose and a cartoony nose for the mouth and so on and so forth.

Sadly, you can’t email yourself your Miis. So I had to take a photo of the TV screen. Which is why the dog Mii looks like, well, a photo of a TV screen.

If you have a Wii and want to be my Wii friend, my Wii number is 7083 0009 0374 9216
