The new Check Mii Out channel for Wii has gone live for download in the UK Wii Shop.

Nintendo had said that the UK gamers would have to wait "a while longer" than the US, where it launched just yesterday, however it is there now. 

"The Check Mii Out Channel lets people show off their Mii creations and vote on those created by others," explains Nintendo.

"In the Posting Plaza, users can submit, exchange or just browse Miis posted by others in their region or worldwide. The channel offers the ability to look at a random selection of 1,000 Miis or to see just the current or all-time favourites," it says, confirming that the channel will also feature competitions for gamers to make Miis based on themes or personalities.

The channel is free to download, so what are you waiting for?
