You actually won't buy a system you were excited about just because you don't like the name? YOu haven't even seen any actual in game footage. you are a tard. Don't buy a wii.

I can wait to see the Japanese commercials related with this sub-name. they "Wii" be a laughting and confusion riot.

#8: Different interpretation for different regions and languages, take crazy-ass-couch-jumping Tom Cruise, he named his newborn daughter Suri which means Princess in Hebrew, Pickpocket in Japanese and i belive is a city or village in your country where the founder of the Sciencetology cult came from. So it's a matter of exploring the real meaning of the word and it's association with something releated to the behavior of the individual {Tom Cruise} or business strategy {Nintedo}.]]>Apr 27th 2006 8:51PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/04/27/wii-know-wii-feel-the-same-way/http://www.engadget.com/2006/04/27/wii-know-wii-feel-the-same-way/Apr 27th 2006 8:58PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/04/27/wii-know-wii-feel-the-same-way/http://www.engadget.com/2006/04/27/wii-know-wii-feel-the-same-way/

Or you could simply call it your Nintendo.

And #6...what exactly is amazingly catchy and adult about PLAYstation and Xbox360??

No really...what exactly is inherently mature about Xtreme to the max Xbox or the PLAYstation??

Whatever, its not a loss.

"What are you guys up to tonight?"
"Probably just get a pizza in, watch a DVD, playstation. What about you?"
...

Its not even "playing playstation" its just "playstation" - like how "search on the internet" has become "google for" or "google it".

I think this is a fucking stupid name myself - they should have chosen something that doesn't sound like a normal word - "Wii"/"We", "Wii"/Oiu" (thats French for "Yes" and is pronounced "Wii"to all American readers). Sure it might look cool on paper or as a fancy logo, but talking about it wont work. ]]>Apr 27th 2006 9:11PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/04/27/wii-know-wii-feel-the-same-way/http://www.engadget.com/2006/04/27/wii-know-wii-feel-the-same-way/
Aside, what is it with double i's these days? Viiv? Double i's aren't going to suddenly make you the coolest guy on the block. Give it up Nintendo and Intel. (Who, if you notice only have 1 i in their names? Are they trying to compensate for something!?)

Then again, the XBox 360 was codenamed "Xenon." I was disappointed when it was changed to 360... perhaps I'll get over the whole "Wii" thing.

But I don't see this helping Nintendo's kiddie image. I can just see it now...

"Wii little kids like to play the Nintendo Wii."

Regardless of gameplay, there'll always be whiners.]]>Apr 27th 2006 9:21PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/04/27/wii-know-wii-feel-the-same-way/http://www.engadget.com/2006/04/27/wii-know-wii-feel-the-same-way/

While "DS" isn't anything special, it's simple and straightforward. "Wii" is awkward... I could see a lot of semi-ingorant mom's asking for the "Nintendo Why" in 2007. I pity the sales associates that have to explain how to pronounce the name.

Back in the day, mine would ask for that "Ni-ten-do"... which is at least close enough not to bother the sales folk. Weee..... Why?]]>Apr 27th 2006 9:34PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/04/27/wii-know-wii-feel-the-same-way/http://www.engadget.com/2006/04/27/wii-know-wii-feel-the-same-way/

You know want? You're all gay.


If you dont think the console is worth buying because of its name, then go buy a ps3 or 360, nintendo doesn't care , its the most profitable videogame compagny ever. you either ride the wave or get lost.
