I Want Die

I Want Die

I Want Die (originally stylized as "I want die") is RTGame's signature Mii. He was created on 21 October 2018, and is his most frequently recurring Mii character.

History

On 21 October 2018, at the behest of Twitch Chat, RT created a Mii during his Wii Sports Resort Stream in order to be able to save his progress. Chat suggested he be named Ross Bob after a character from a prior Sims stream; RT quickly rejected this idea. After two additional suggestions ("Grouchy" and "Kill Me Bob"), RT decided to name the Mii "I Want To Die", shortened to "I Want Die" due to the character limit for names. I Want Die proceeded to excel in an array of activities featured in the game, particularly Archery, Swordplay, and Bowling.

I Want Die has since been featured in numerous Wii streams, as he is the first of two Miis that appear on the console. Soon, however, he became a recurring channel meme and, as a result, was included in many non-Wii streams , as well as merchandise.

Appearances

• 7 December 2018: During the second round of WWMii, I Want Die is represented by a Ness amiibo. He makes his way to the finals, but loses to YT Rewind, a Sheik amiibo. It is suggested that neither he nor End Mii were on RT's Nintendo Switch at this time, as the Mii used for End Mii isn't the same one used in Wii Play.
• 9 January 2019: RT plays Wii Party on stream, and I Want Die consumes all of the food in the world.
• 2 February 2019: RT streams Mario and Sonic at the Olympics, and I Want Die becomes an Olympic Gold medalist.

• 9 May 2019: RT streams Nintendo Land; however, I Want Die isn't on the console. In an attempt to remedy this, RT uses the system's camera to try to copy the Mii. This results in 3 bootleg Miis, after which RT receives a QR Code for someone's I Want Die Mii. This Mii had differently angled eyes, lacked the beauty mark, and wore yellow instead of I Want Die's iconic red.
• 30 May 2019: RT streams Tomodachi Life, with the original I Want Die as the second islander. His personality is an Easy-Going Softie.

• 25 December 2019: During the second WWMii, I Want Die is represented as a Mii amiibo akin to the other competitors, with the sole exception of the prior year's champion, YT Rewind. I Want Die gets taken down in the first round by the eventual tournament champion, Shaggy. During the follow up "No drugs edition" tournament, which removed three fighters including Shaggy, I Want Die didn't fare any better, losing to Peter in a free-for-all alongside Gandhi. This version of I Want Die features different eyebrows and lacks the wrinkles and beauty mark of the original. RT also briefly shows his Switch's home screen at the end of this stream, revealing this version of I Want Die as his profile picture.
