The console gets a name: Wii ^________________^

I laughed. Wii? Get real.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

You are a bit late. It´s being discussed in the big pre-pre-e3 revolution thread
I don´t think a seperate thread is necessary.

edit: no no - damn you, of pom!!

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Its kinda already being discussed in the Re..wii thread


edit: damn you elevator

How ya doing, buddy?

This shit can't be serious.

If so, we'd mind as well keep Megalith permanently banned here.

I'll bite my tougne here and just say I'm gonna keep calling it the Revolution.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

I kind of thought it deserved its own thread also. But then again--here's not much to discuss, since the whole world already agrees that it's a hilarious name.

I think it's kinda cute, though. Wheeeeeeeee!

I was speaking idiomatically.

Revolution was a much better name for it than some silly Wii. I suppose it could be worse. Imagine Nintendo Xtreme or somesuch.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

I like how Nintendo has a good idea and then is like "let's add a nice pile of SHIT to it. That'll help it sell."

This is just as bad as name, if not worse, than the Gizmondo. =\

FELIPE NO

"I'll bite my tougne here and just say I'm gonna keep calling it the Revolution."

Yeah, I'm sure that'll last. I can see you a year from now.
"Hey you guys wanna play some Revolution?"
"You mean Wii, right?"
"No I mean Revolution. It's the Nintendo Revolution, they never changed it."
"Yeah, I'm pretty sure that's not true. It says Wii on the box. And on the system."
"VIVA LA REVOLUTION."

But sure, you stick it to Nintendo. :P

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

Ya, just read the news myself. Seriously Nintendo, what on earth were you thinking?

"Hay guys let's go inside and play some Wii!!" How does that NOT sound horrendously stupid?

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Yeah ok, like anyone says "Hey let's go play some Gamecube."

It will be the same as always, "Hey let's go play some Nintendo".

And if I buy a Wii, when I walk into the store, I will be like "Hey, I want the new Nintendo".

There's nowhere I can't reach.

I easily see "Wii" growing on us. It's a silly name, indeed, and it's sillyness is going to get it mad pub. I laughed too. I think it's great.

Sounds horrendously stupid? Yeah... but it also sounds horrendously FUN. OSNAP.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

It's an alright name. Revolution, while being somewhat appropriate, sounded almost as faceless and bland as Xbox (XXeksXX).

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

There are plenty of words that people take seriously, despite them souding ridiculous.
Penis, for example. Men take nothing more seriously than that ridiculous word.

I think if we can say the pronoun "we" without laughing like five year olds, we should be able to say Wii without laughing like five year olds.

I was speaking idiomatically.

How true.

I mean, so far: PlayStation, GameCube, X-Box, DualScreen/DeveloperSystem, Entertainment System, 64... It really has been all very bland. Jaguar was hot name, but that already implies a theme of sorts. With Wii, Nintendo's options are boundless.

How ya doing, buddy?

dundundunnnnnn

FELIPE NO

He means Nintendo's going Sir VG on our asses.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

Closed, cause we can just discuss this in the "Revolution" thread.

That's where all the cool kids are anyway. =P

Jam it back in, in the dark.

I don't follow the huge Revolution thread, but I thought these were interesting enough news to warrant a seperate thread. Why have a whole forum for Nintendo when there's only one thread allowed for the newest console?

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Because this is pre-E3 news about Rev/Wii. That's why.

This thread was closed material from the get go.

Most amazing jew boots
