Over 100 million Miis created since Wii launched photo

If you're a fan of silly statistics, then pay attention! Nintendo has today revealed that in Japan and the US alone, 100 million Miis have been created by Wii users since the system launched in 2006. That's 20 million Japanese Miis and 80 million American ones. 

Nintendo president Satoru Iwata boasted of the news at a recent games seminar. Despite dropping such huge numbers, Iwata was unwilling to confirm just how many of those 100 million Miis are either Hitler or Jesus. I'm willing to guess that most of them are. 

And one Admiral Ackbar.

I'm guessing 19 million of those Japanese Miis are all of Haruhi characters.

Thanks for the groundbreaking news Jim! I myself have created 3 since I'm on my 3rd Wii, and yes that one is collecting dust as well.

Nintendo, just....brag about how much money you make. Crap like this is why you've lost the core market.

I realise you'll cry yourself to sleep in your Scrooge McDuck money bins, but when Apple or someone releases the next gimmicky casual game device, you'll be SOL with people who actually like gaming.
