Now, we all know that "Revolution" was merely a code name, and now, here is the official name

Nintendo Wii...yah...

now then, Wii is pronounced as "We," and Im kinda thinking... no! Now, I know this is just a name and has nothing to do with how great this system will be, but... c'mon!

discuss

apparantly its Nintendos opinion on what they're doing
"We" did this
"We" did that...
I cant remember what they actually said, but it was a bit more impressive than that...

Wow, next thing you know, they're gonna make it the shape of a "W" or something.

TT____TT I don't like the new name....

Imagine talking to your friends about it...

"Hey guy! I just got a Wii!"
"What? Wee? Like going to the bathroom wee?"
"No! A Nintendo Wii!"
"It sounds like you need to wee..."

It's just awful! This is worse than when the changed Song of Happiness to Magical Melody! It's been the Revolution for so long, they just should have kept it that way.

Oh but I still love the system. I don't give a damn if it's called a Wii now, since the games will ultimately decide how goo it is anyways. Nintendo's smart maketing ploy =3

I found out that according to rumors, the name "wii" applies to "we" as in the refrence to "us" as in people as a whole. it would be a severe marketing mistake to call it the Nintendo "us", because certain anti-America groups would boycott it if it was called the "us", by interpreting it as "U.S." two initials of the United States.

also, to my oppinion, "Wii" applies to "Wireless, Internet, Innovation".

so now that I thought that, I can only assume you'll see the title as an abreviation of my assumption.

the Nintendo "Wireless Internet Innovation". otherwise known as "Wii". ^__^

I think mine better describes the Wii anyways. it's wireless, it's innovative, and it lets you play online. ^__^ awesome for netgaming, and there's a few games slated for it. ^__^ two of which are DBZ Tenkaichi 2, and a Marvel game that plays on the basic stuff from X-Men Legends with over 100 Marvel heroes and of them there's Spider-man, Wolverine, Captain America, and I think the Thing. ^__^ lots of heroes to choose from. ^__^
