It might work in Japan, but I just dont think that name sounds appealing to the rest of the world.

Re: Revolution's New name Revealed
 

Well, I don't know what to think after mulling it over.

On one hand.. its Wii

But on the other hand check out IGN, 1up, game forums or whatever you want to do.. top story is Wii...

Why because it got people talking.

I mean blogs from editors from several sites lead back to the Wii story or even more Wii info.

Wii is quickly becoming a household word just because no one can stop talking about it. And for some strange reason that works, I think.

And apparently the name is Wii and not Nintendo Wii which is weird but could work.

Time to change your sig to "WII IS COMING"

Re: Revolution's New name Revealed
 

OMFG! This is the most creative console name. It makes everything else seem so unfriendly. I definitely see good things happening with this name. I am screaming!

The logo is simple and attractive.

gamemaster loves teh wii wii




jk...sorta...but i happen to think that's a terrible name. I dont see what was wrong with "Nintendo Revolution" or "Nintendo RES" (Revolution Entertainment System)

Re: Revolution's New name Revealed
 

I think I gotta go Wii

I gotta say it's easy to say.........yay

"How much is the Play-station-Three"?
"How much is the X-Box-Three-Sixty"?
"How much is the Wii?"

France's answer if they would embrace the new Nintendo console:
"Wii!"



Haha, I don't think people here saw your genious joke. :D I love you!
(much better than my joke by the way)


Soooooo anyway..... Wii. It's not that bad. :) Why should "DS" and GameBoy Advance SP work and not Wii?

Wii give you a revolution.....

Yep I like it.

Re: Revolution's New name Revealed
 

Well if there's people not playing it because of the name, they're stupid.

I don't like that name but I couldn't care less about that.

And it's way more original than putting the corresponding number at the end.

Re: Revolution's New name Revealed
 

You know I was thinking about things, and they could totally name the old school game download system "Wii-trieve".

Oh god the possibilities are endless for this name. It's growing on me.

Re: Revolution's New name Revealed
 

indeed, so im going to call EB and ask for the price of the Wii btw if it is true japanese pronounciation its Wee i thin kthats stoooopid

Re: Revolution's New name Revealed
 

1. PS3
2. 360
3. wee



They all seem pretty short and simple to me.

Re: Revolution's New name Revealed
 

The Wii puns will never end now.

Though an odd name choice, the western world could use something a little less...cutesy?

Re: Revolution's New name Revealed
 

shamelessly stolen from neogaf


Denile! What?? Wii??? No way! It has to be fake!

Anger: Stupid ****ing nintendo! The urine and dick jokes are never going to stop!

Bargaining: OK... Let the name be Wii in Japan, but please change it for the US and Europe?

Depression: It's the end of Nintendo. they're just sabotaging themselves.

Acceptance: Maybe it's not so bad, we'll get used to it.


:lol:

Re: Revolution's New name Revealed
 

No I meant syllable wise. Weeeeee

On a serious note, I think it's a good idea what they've done with the name, and the logo. I mean it will question a lot of peoples curiosity why it's called "Wii" and the logo / marketing I'm sure will revolve around the controller and human interaction.

Unusual name (intending to be "We" for everybody) combined with a logo and marketing campaign that will showcase the revolutionary side of the console should sit well with the public I imagine.
