i hate the name i think its terrible.

In fact when they were calling it the ultra 64 i thought that was cool. Since it went with whole super nintendo idea. But then they changed it to the whole gay nintendo 64

I felt the same way with the Nintendo 64. I liked the name Ultra 64 way more.

Is it...a joke? I'm sure they will get bad sale now cause of that gay name. Seriously. Revolution was the best name out of the 3

For the first time in years, I'm ashamed of my favorite video game company. I wrote this letter immediately upon hearing this news, and advise anyone who cares to do the same.

Quote:
This is the beginning of a massive hate-mail campaign against the name "Nintendo Wii."

You cannot do this. You CAN'T. You were doing everything right, Nintendo. EVERYTHING. Your momentum going into this next generation was unmatched, and in one fell stroke, it has been destroyed. I understand that the name shouldn't matter, but not only will this name cost you millions of sales, it will alienate us Nintendo faithful. You CANNOT expect us to feel comfortable saying this name in public. It reeks of the old childish image Nintendo has struggled to shed, cannot be immediately read by a member of the general public without a pronounciation key, and is inferior in every way to the Nintendo Revolution.

Please reconsider. You have thirteen days until E3 to do so.

For the love of God, don't do this.

I support the product and this name doesn't change that but it is pretty lame.

The paragraph that describes in on their website makes it sound sort of cool, and I can understand wanting to eliminate the abbreviation "rev", but Wii is just going to make everyone who doesn't understand it hate it more lol.

The Ad campaign will be cool, as it's obvious that one of the main factors for "Wii" was to turn the controllers into the i's.
