Nintendo has revealed during its E3 2014 Digital Event that Miis will be playable in the upcoming Super Smash Bros. games, and they're a lot more fleshed out than you might have thought. The showcase initially teased the inclusion by showing Satoru Iwata and Reggie Fils-Aime face off against one another in an epic Matrix-inspired battle.
Given that Miis are a personal representation of the player, Super Smash Bros. director Masahiro Sakurai and his team have allowed for further customisation with this particular character. There are three different Mii variants to choose from: Mii Brawler, Mii Swordfighter and Mii Gunner.
The Mii Brawler is a fast and in-your-face fighter, designed for close-combat. The Mii Swordfighter — unsurprisingly — is a weapons master, while Mii Gunner will utilise long-ranged attacks in their bid to win the fight.

God Sakurai actually put Reggie in, gotta love this man
Oh Yeah! Mii's are fighters, I can't wait to use these guys
Oh snap...
I just found my favorite character (who didn't see that coming?)
Its on now.....
NOOOOO!!!!
The only downside is people complaining how kids will emulate the violence their miis do on-screen.
On a positive side, when I play a Mii, I'll be a swordsmen, or brawler.
@SockoMario
Why No?
Mii and Palutena. Sakurai can make even lame-sounding characters look cool.
Disappointed, mainly because I didn't want to fight a bunch of Miis online... Especially considering many will probably be joke Miis, fighting Hitler and Jesus will be fun for all of five minutes, it'll get old fast.
Mii Gunner looks like Pulsefire Ezreal :3
I think you misspelled Palutena.
Reggie vs. Iwata was amazing
Its time to start importing Miis.
One way or another, Ice Climbers are in (even if they have to be Mii characters).
ALEXSORA89 JOINS THE BATTLE
'nuff said.
now we can fight as Iwata and reggienator!
@ShadJV Jesus Crosses over
Hitler takes control
@ShadJV Yeah that's probably the only downside. I hope they include a no Mii mode.
You will all understand when I fight you.
I totally called this during the smash direct!!! happy day
Andrew's blade strikes for great justice!
I can make Pulsefire Ezreal.
Im not excited about this at all honestly but im glad the option is there for those who want it.
I do love how they changed the release date for the WiiU to Winter 2014! Im more secure that Smash is coming out this year now
I'll take it! That Rocky Balboa Mii I made in '07 finally has a purpose in life.
Mii be a swordfighter. Can't wait to kick some Mii!
Oh god im happy but i know for a fact im going to play people, who are going to use reggie as there mii which would be fun either way.
The Iwata and Reggie fight was one of the funniest and most epic things I've ever seen. Props to Nintendo for that, I loved it.
Yyyyeeeessss!! Nintendo wins E3 with this alone!
I wonder if you can customize the appearance beyond the Mii's face. I'd like to replace the sword with an axe so I can play my Axe Cop Mii.
When people said Mii for a Fighter. I was thinking "Hella No!"
But they all look beast. Man. Gonna love being a fighter on a game and not just my imagination.
this looks nice!
Mii as fighters for Super Smash Bros. I'm going to enjoy beating my girlfriend as my look a like.
Hmm, I retype this like 5 times and it still sound like domestic abuse.
... and now Pac Man! Glad this happened. Seemed mean not to.
Yeah! I cant wait to see my Mii going 'Max Payne' on my buds!!!
I was surprised how much this little tidbit excited me, especially as I'm not really that hyped on the game at the moment.
Yeah, I'm down with this. Will I prefer using Genesaur over Samus, Marth, or Link? Or Palutena, since she seems rad as hell? Only time will tell.
Or Little Mac.
Or Hank Hill. You know it'll be awesome!
Awesome news! I wanted Miis in Brawl so finally I get my wish!
Better to have something so synonymous with Nintendo than to have some obscure Fire Emblem character.
Oh, I can see my mii with a sword alright... this is hilarious
@ShadJV, guess what: Mii Fighters are only playable With Friends, instead of With Anyone, online. Got that info from the Smash Bros. website.
Why would i play like a Mii? Othrs feelin this way as well? They can better focus on more characters instead easy. nuff said. Never ever will MII in game!
