Nintendo… Wii?

So Nintendo’s next console formerly code-named the Revolution has been given an official name. Wii. Pronounced “we”. Except with i’s. Honestly, I don’t like it. It’s kinda cheesy and subject to much ridicule. “Wanna come and play with my Wii Wii?” It even sounds awkward saying it normally. “Do you have the new Zelda for the Wii?” I really want to know the names they rejected to come to this conclusion. I really wonder if their strategy will work this time around. Not pushing hardware specs much, re-simplifying gameplay, banking on the nostalgia factor with emulated old school games, and now a cutesy name. One thing is for sure, they aren’t going to be a threat to Playstation, I can guarantee that much.

Yeah, I heard about the “Wii” too and it’s just stupid.. It means a lot of different things in different languages.. I wonder who the heck came up with that idea, so retarded… They should’ve stuck woth Revolution!
And Lost is good
You should come back to FFXI, expansion is -really- nice!
