Min Min is one of | 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. | 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.
