Min Min is one of the 15 fighters from the [[Nintendo Switch]] fighting game ''{{iw|armsinstitute|ARMS|game}}''. She is one of a select few people in the world to be born with a gene that grants {{iw|armsinstitute|ARMS|extendable}}, a phenomenon where the person's arms (or, in rare cases, other body parts) transmute into extendable helixes. In Min Min's case, her ARMS heavily resemble ramen noodles, fittingly in reference to her family operating the Mintendo Noodle House.

Unlike the other fighters, Min Min's left ARM can transform into a dragon ARM (regardless of whatever type of ARM is equipped) when her ARMS are fully {{iw|armsinstitute|charge}}d for longer than usual, or upon successfully [[armsinstitute:Grab|throwing]] an opponent. This effect increases that ARM's size significantly and causes it to remain charged indefinitely. However, this effect can be deactivated if Min Min is hit with a charged punch, knocked down, or if her left ARM is disabled. In addition to her ARMS, Min Min is a talented martial artist, and utilizes kicks that enable her to deflect an opponent's punches.

====Primary spirit====
Prior to the release of Min Min as a fighter, Min Min appeared as an Ace-class [[primary spirit]]. This spirit initially had no [[series symbol]] assigned, but was given the ''ARMS'' symbol upon Min Min's release as a fighter.
In [[Adventure Mode: World of Light]], Min Min is presumably one of the countless spirits captured by [[Galeem]] during his takeover of the universe. Min Min's spirit is located in the village section of [[The Light Realm]].
Min Min uses a female {{SSBU|Corrin}} puppet fighter and is fought on the [[New Pork City]] stage's [[Ω form]]. During the battle, Corrin has increased move speed and favors her [[Dragon Fang Shot]], referencing Min Min's Dragon ARM, a dragon-shaped ARM with the ability to fire a laser from its mouth. Also, Corrin's attack power increases when she reaches high damage.
