The ORIGINS of Matt from Wii Sports

[@SrSteve404]

I think he's just a professional sport practicer that was diagnosed with cancer. So, knowing he'd die, he decided to teach other people his ways and show his tricks to become as skilled as him.

Looking back, Nintendo must've really cared about Matt considering how far they went to put in easter eggs to captivate a story for Matt and being the only Mii representing some sort of lore for the games.(besides Lucía in Table tennis as its revealed somehow Yoshi was a vice champ that trained Lucía to become champ) It truly is heartwarming and for me at least nostalgic on how much thought and consideration they put in for a simple Mii that could've just easily been a one and done. For someone who has played the Wii all their life even today, it's nice knowing how much care was put into a demo game and how even if it wasn't anticipated that Matt would be one of their most iconic and popular characters they still put so much love into this beautiful character.(last part sounds like im glazing but idc)

My friend was actually the first person who posted the Matt meme! He had a meme page with 30k followers on Instagram and it soon got stolen and reposted on worldstar, without the watermark.

[@InnovativeJdawg]

Nice

[@CinderTheSkulldog]

The fun thing me and my brother actually did while playing on our wii, is that we made a Matt extended family tree just for the jokes. We made his dad named Carpenter, a brother named Rugg, and a sister named Carpett. We have yet to bring a mother into the picture mainly because we ran out of names to keep the name gag going. But yeah, Matt really is a special mii for the wii

[@cmartinm98]

[@supernova78_]

Nicely done vid! I'm honestly convinced Nintendo was attached to Matt, bc (as far as ik) he's the only one with any visible backstory and I believe he's the only Mii in OG Wii Sports to have a voice, even tho it's just grunts. Another thing I'd like to point out. If anyone watches boxing or boxes themselves might've noticed, is Matt's previous fav color. In boxing it's common for the champ to wear red and for the challenger to wear blue. I just like that little detail 😊

[@السراقالمجهول]

lucia is also, yoshi the former table tennis champ trained her

[@jamainegardner4193]

I've got two What-If ideas for you. Both are Piccolo-Based. 1: What if Goku had found Piccolo Jr's Egg and taken it with him to train under Kami? 2: What if 17 had invited Piccolo to stay on his island after the Cell Games?

matt story is really just a classic champion story, we seen it countless times but it still hits what are i really like is the devs trying to make a narrative without saying a word with what little they had i really wished that a future wii sports title would have a story mode where matt coaches you to become the champion kinda like dock louis from punch out

Matt may not be a good batter, but he is a good fielder. He’s gotten me out so many times.

I was expecting you to cover the boxing game in wii fit as well, where it also takes place in Matt's gym, but with a different trainer. Great video!

[@turnleftaticeland]

Loved this video! Are there any other CPU Miis with “lore” like this? Maybe Lucía or Miguel? You should do a video on them if there are!

[@InnovativeJdawg]

Thank you! Matt is definitely the most "lore" driven Mii, but I could definitely look to see if there's any others that have interesting backstories!

[@ResurrectedElvenMonk]

I wonder if Andy and Matt went from rivals to pretty close friends much like Apollo & Rocky in the Rocky franchise.

What about Ryan, since he is always the first opponent you fight in sword play and boxing, what is Mats best sports & why is he the referee when you fight Mat in speed slice?

[@InnovativeJdawg]

It's possible that Ryan could be like the player, a "student" under Matt, or something like an assistant coach?

@@InnovativeJdawg I always interpreted him as just the Wii series equivalent of Glass Joe due to being the weakest in both combat sports, though the whole "apprentice" thing might be a fun headcanon.

By the end of the day, Matt and the wii will always be the face of sports. I just wish that somebody can carry-on with his legacy besides us the player to bring in the switch era. what they did for the Wii especially the Meet channel, Nintendo certainly struggle and they should've gave us that opportunity with the switch. Don't get me wrong, I love the switch but it's just not the same like how it is like the Wii. now let's say for the Wii U, if that was actually as popular and it took over the controls like the switch, i'm for sure wii would continue on.
