My Zach Braff Mii Wins Kottke’s Celebrity Mii Contest!

Zach Braff Mii in Garden State

Find my Miis on Nintendo's Check Mii Out Channel.

Holy Crap! I'm shocked and thrilled that my very own Zach Braff Mii was selected as the winner of Jason Kottke's Celebrity Mii contest!

I'm so shocked and thrilled that I photoshopped my Zach Braff Mii into a Garden State still. Now that's some good times right there.

Who knew that watching Scrubs for however many years would ever have a tangible benefit?!? I can't wait to see the 3D model from Fabjectory, I know it'll be super cool. I'll post some pics of it for sure.

Thanks to the judges for choosing my ZBMii from the many outstanding Miis... and a very special thanks to Zach Braff for having such a huge lower lip.

WOOHOO!

Making Celebrity Miis On Our Wii

Making Miis On Our Wii

Find my Miis on Nintendo's Check Mii Out Channel.

Let me not be the first to say: The Wii is freakin' sweet!

It's no small surprise that The Legend Of Zelda - Twilight Princess is one of the greatest games I've ever played, but it's a huge surprise how much fun we've been having making celebrity Miis! It's competitive and crazy addictive... we're totally hooked.

Plus, we've been registering each others Wiis at work and sending Miis to our central Wii at POP. One thing I discovered last night, you can only send 20 Miis per day. Dang!

Pictured above are some of our Miis so far: Me, Faye, Jack Black, Kyle Gass, Conan (my first mii), Woody Allen, Jerri Blank (from Stangers With Candy), Oprah, Lorelai Gilmore, Rory Gilmore, Borat, and Steve Martin.

I'll keep posting pics of them on Flickr: Dave And Faye Make Miis On Our Wii.

UPDATE: A few of my Miis were singled out on Kottke.org for his Celebrity Mii contest!

After seeing that I created a Celebrity Mii Group on Flickr for one-stop celebrity mii browsing.
