Japanese Police Use Mii Avatar Wanted Poster To Hunt Down Hit and Run Suspect

How deeply does Nintendo’s tendrils penetrate Japanese society? So deeply that this wanted poster was spotted in Kanagawa, and instead of a traditional composite sketch, what’s that we have there? A Mii portrait??


No word on the suspect’s Wii fit rating, or his preference of dogs vs. cats, in Everybody Votes, but, goddamn, I don’t think any joke can improve on this. There it is, too good to be true. [Zaeega via Kotaku, Danny Choo]

    Only In Japan.

    I mean really, if this guy is caught – it’d make world news.
