Japan gets celebrity-endorsed Miis

Have a look at this here Japanese commercial for the genius of Mii. It stars two famous personalities -- Akashiya Sanma, renowned comedian/TV presenter (pictured, with teeth), and Shuuzou Matsuoka, one-time tennis player (pictured on the right) -- both of whom are having a great time as they construct their own faces. Possibly* as the start of an official celebrity cloning project, Nintendo of Japan is releasing these A-list Miis through WiiConnect24, which means that all (connected) Japanese Wiis will be receiving a message and file from NCL very soon. The duo will only be available until April 29, however, at which point the men in white coats will escort them back to a Kyoto lab.
