" The idea for Home came from Nintedo's integration of the Mii into the Wii"

so you're saying that playstation home was derived from the mii system on the wii?

That is correct. Nintendo had its Avatar system so Sony and Microsoft made their own. Nintendo had its motion controls so Sony and Microsoft made their own. Nintendo has it dual screen gameplay so Sony and Microsoft made their own. Nintendo has its first party 4 person brawler, Sony is now making one and I have no doubt that Microsoft will follow suit in someway in the future.

This is why Nintendo is so secretive. Everything they anounce seems to magically bring about something that looks and work really similar on the Sony and Microsoft consoles.

 

what was taken from the mii system and used on playstation home?

btw multiple online games had avatars long before nintendo... so nintendo lifted the idea also...
