Min Min (ミェンミェン, Min Min) is a character and playable fighter in the Nintendo Switch game ARMS.

Origin

Min Min is one of fifteen fighters from the Nintendo Switch title ARMS. She is one of a select few people in the world to be born with a gene causing ARMS, a phenomenon where the person's arms (or, in some cases, other body parts) turn into long, stretchy material. In Min Min's case, her ARMS seem to be made of ramen noodles, due to her family operating the famed Mintendo Noodle House. Her left arm can also transform into a dragon arm when fully charged, keeping the ARM equipped to it charged and increasing its power until she gets knocked down. In addition to her ARMS, she also kicks, which enables her to deflect opponents' punches. Min Min competes in the ARMS League to promote her family's restaurant.

In Super Smash Bros. Ultimate

As a playable character

An ARMS representative was announced to be added as DLC on March 26th, 2020, but it was not until June 22nd that this character was confirmed to be Min Min. Her extendable ARMS give her a unique control scheme and playstyle that encourages playing on the ground from a distance but is at a disadvantage in the air and in close range. She will be released as part of Challenger Pack 6 on June 29th, 2020.

Prior to the game’s launch, Masahiro Sakurai considered adding characters from recent Nintendo titles like ARMS and Xenoblade Chronicles 2 in the base roster, but he was unable to do so because they were announced long after planning and production of Ultimate began. When it came time to add downloadable content to the game, Sakurai considered Ninjara as a possible fighter. But in the end and at the request of ARMS producer Kosuke Yabuki, the fighter ended up being Min Min instead.
