Agreed. If Mii's could change clothes, they'd piss all over Avatars. One thing that Avatars do have over Miis -they go to sleep (I'm not talking about those 20 second naps that Miis take either!). If I turn on my Wii at 3:40am, all 100 Miis are wide awake looking at me!! Freaks me out!
Both companies need to use their thing-a-ma-jiggers more, though. My Miis should be going out into the world on adventures, bringing me back Wii-points and friend requests like little diplomats. My Avatar should be dancing to custom soundtracks and stalking me through various games (hidden in Gears of War 2 or something). It'd be cool!
