Is "Miitomo" a good idea?

Is there any proof that the average Wii owner really cared about them in the first place?

Nope not really, but u and others are the ones saying Miitomo will fail because nobody cares about Miis. I haven't really seen anybody here say Miitomo will succeed because of Miis.

This earlier post might indicate otherwise:

200m Miis have been created dude. You're lying to yourself. It doesn't matter if their relevence has been dormant. They were a sensation when they came out for years, and people loved them. Not just me - Hundreds of millions of people. You're anecdote means shit against raw numbers. The only reason the IP is dormant is because the hardware they were tied to is no longer relevant. The massive success of things like Tomodachi Life and Street Pass Mii Plaza is absolute proof that the Mii IP is still loved. That IP will explode as a social platform on such a massive social pool as the mobile market.

 

He's literally saying that Miis will "explode as a social platform", and that's what really sparked the nitty gritty of the debate.
